Quick Reviews – Kimberly Frost – Would Be Witch

February 16, 2009 in Reviews

Ms. Frost’s debut novel is a wicked start to her Southern Witch Series.

Tammy-Jo Trask is slowly coming into her witchy powers, with two men to choose from (her ex on and off again Hubby and a Wizard who you’d want for yourself), an attack cat Merc and a family ghost with killer style.

Tammy-Jo has come from a long line of witches and had left behind her craft, because well..she couldn’t spell herself out of a paper-bag! She married young, to a police officer who didn’t believe a word about a priceless family heirloom that contains the ghost of a relative. When that very heirloom gets stolen at a Halloween party, Tammy-Jo goes against one of her families rules and contacts Bryn, a Wizard who’s family she has been forbidden to make contact with for help.

A definate page turner that has you giggling and wondering whats to come in this series. 4.5/5 Stars

I met a wonderful woman while I was at a booksigning for Sherrilyn Kenyon in August. We shared similar tastes in books and exchanged emails which led to a complete email exchange of our book lists. She had recommended the Fae series by Karen Marie Moning, but after reading the back of the book I wasn’t too impressed.

Fast forward to Wednesday, with no new releases to look forward to until February…I needed a fix. I saw the first two books in the series and picked them up, boy am I glad I did. I just finished Darkfever and I am officially a convert. I didn’t pick up the hardcover of Faefever during my trip, just incase I didn’t like the series but it is now my lunchtime break mission tomorrow.

I currently have at least 10 books on my To Be Read Pile, which never happens. I can’t seem to keep a pile of books around without devouring them. I need book detox!
