review 1: This was a great book, focusing on Lizard and her journey into adulthood. Yes, technically she is already an adult, but as the book progresses it shows that introspection does not have to take place in the form of meditation, it can occur through life experiences..but everyone n...

review 1: I thoroughly enjoyed this whole series, but know this is a very light story line, mostly about family, friends, and how they are often one in the same. There's no real villain or antagonist, all of the conflict tends to be internal. It's mostly full of uplifting, happy, sappy mom...

review 1: #2 in the series expands in the stories created in A Modern Witch. This time we are in Nova Scotia, and it seems that something is broken in the "fetching" spell, when it finds someone they already know. I didn't like this book as much as the first. Elorie, Sophie and Marcus we...

review 1: Book 3 in the series. We are mostly back in Berkeley, but first stop in Oregon, where Sierra Brighton is a "forgotten witch". Once she is adopted by the Walker/Sullivan clan though, she'll have an instant family. This book is slightly darker than the first two, as Sierra is hau...

review 1: One of the things I love the most about this series is the author's uncanny ability to allow her characters to make mistakes and grow from them, and Witch Centrals resident Mama Bear is no exception to this. In this book, Nell finally finds herself in a situation she can't contro...

review 1: This was an excellent end to the trilogy. The characters continue to be enjoyable, and I think Lizard's fear of her own greatness and success is something I may have to deal with at some point in the near future. Every character who gets a point of view section is well written, a...

review 1: I liked this book a lot. I was expecting a common witch story that deals with the past and the trouble surrounding the use of power.. but this book wasn't that kind of read.I was pleasanty surprised when I started this book. Not only are the characters approachable and likeable...

review 1: I quite enjoyed the initial part of this novel finding it charming but soon this changed as the narrative became increasingly cloyingly and rather twee. Much more a light-weight slice of chick-lit than a work of fantasy. The characters spend a lot of time cooking and eating and b...

review 1: "A Modern Witch" is a clever mix of contemporary and fantasy. The story revolves around witches in the modern day, but there is no epic showdown, no bad guy to be defeated. It is simply a story about a witch family that trains other witches and manages to track down a woman who...

review 1: The end of a series. The author has been very clear that changes in her life led her to choose to end this series. Unfortunately, this book isn't the best ending. It reads as a typical Witch Central book up to the epilogue, which is a very touching wrap up to the series. I appre...

review 1: I read this on the "read ALL the Debora Geary books" principle, because I love her Modern Witch series and its spinoffs. This isn't in the same setting and has completely new characters. In fact, it isn't in the same genre; no fantasy here, only romance (and humour). I enjoyed it...

review 1: Geary's books are special to me in making me feel warm and fuzzy inside knowing that there is love and hope in the world. This one was particularly dear to me as it deals with the difficulty of walking a path alone even though there are those who support you. While I cannot relat...

review 1: I usually shy away from any book that says "witch" in the title, but I have loved these books. I finished the first series and then started this one (which, if you haven't yet read the Modern Witch series, falls in between A Hidden Witch and A Reckless Witch). These are people/...
