review 1: To be honest I was a little confused with this one. I normally check out other reviews on a book before I choose to be part of a tour – that way I’m more confident when requesting it that I’m going to like it. When I looked into Daughter of Isis I didn’t really find anything online other than cover reveals and bloggers putting it on their ‘to read’ list. And GoodReads yielded little other than generic ‘loved it’ reviews – so I took chance.The story in itself was interesting and I just loved the setting and how the Egyptian myths were weaved into the plot – there had obviously been a lot or research done by Kelsey to ensure that it all felt ‘real’. A very important part to a supernatural book in my opinion – the real aspects balance up the less tha... moren real ones.From a writer’s perspective I kind of found it slow in the beginning and hard to get into to – this is just my opinion, I am well known for having a short attention span (I blame TV) but I kept reading to ensure I could give a thorough review – and I’m glad I did. The story really does start to open up, and soon enough I was embroiled into the world of Egyptian myths and legends.My only real bug-bear with Daughter of Isis is that there were spelling errors and mistakes dotted about it. There will always be these in any book, with any publisher – hell, Harry Potter had several! But it did ruin the flow for me in places, which was a shame as the writing really draws you in.Being British myself and having the main character hailing from England was a nice bonus for me – although some of the words used were a little cliche and perhaps dated – We generally don’t really say ‘arse’ that much.The front cover is lovely and really does represent the book well – it was actually one of the reasons why I wanted to read it.Overall I’d give Daughter of Isis 3 out of 5 stars – worth a read if you’re tired of reading about vampires and werewolves, and want a bit of a change of pace.
review 2: Guest Review from Tiffany: WOW!...what a debut novel for Kelsey Ketch. This book had me hooked from the very beginning! Natara "Natti" Stone is the main female character in this novel. The mystery surrounding Natti's life is riveting!! I could not turn the pages fast enough to find the answers! Natti has to move from London to the United States with her father after her Grandmother was murdered. On the first day at her new school Natti meets Seth, the "charmer"! Seth has any girl he wants falling at his feet but not Natti. Seth is not going to give up until he has Natti. Natti finds herself falling for Seth even though she knows something is not right. What happens between the two?! Believe me you will want to read this book to find out! What a wild and crazy story!!! I CAN NOT wait until the next book! less
