Review: How to Hang a Witch by Adriana Mather

How to Hang a Witch is the about a young descendent of Cotton Mather. Everything she thinks she knows about her family and magic is wrong. Witches are real and things

So, I really love a book that mixes actual historical events/places with fantasy. The combination just gets me and that is exactly what you are going to get with this book. Adriana Mather is an actual descendant if Cotton Mather (Of the Salem Witch Trials) and she sure did do her research in order to include as much authenticity into this story as possible. That, plus some ghosts and witchcraft made this a delightful read that I just didn't want to put down. Plus what is all that without the hinting of a love triangle. This is one that I am sure, if I ever get to the bottom of my TBR pile, I would read again. I hear Adriana is writing a sequel (?) but that it is going to be on a different topic. I'm not sure about that exactly, but after this book I'm willing to give whatever she decides to write a try.

Review: The Infinty of You & Me by J.Q. Coyle

So, this was an interesting book and I don't know any other way to describe it, This was outside of my usual genre (sort of). I really have never read a book quite like this. It had a different sort of vibe than other books that I cant quite explain. I think you would have to read it to understand. The story is of a girl that basically thinks she's crazy because of these episodes she has where she hallucinates that she is someone else in different locations doing dangerous things with her father, who left when she was a child. Eventually she finds out she is not crazy or hallucinating, but instead traveling to other infinite alternate universes into the conscience of different versions of herself. She has to find a way to save her father and save another world without being taken by people that want to stop her and find ways to exploit her gift. It was a really fascinating good read. I only rated it a 3 because for some reason it gave me weird vibes.

Review: Heartstone byElle Katherine White

I'm actually giving this book a 3 1/2-4 star rating but only because it took some work on my part to get through it, even though I really did like it. This is a Pride and Prejudice retelling (with dragons!). I couldn't help but imagine the movie characters as I was reading it for a mental picture. The end was heartbreaking but beautiful and left me with the same mushy heart pain as Pride and Prejudice. If you like that and you like fantasy then this is a great combo. The author stuck mostly to similar concepts as the original, changing the details to fit the genre. The characters names we variations or plays on the characters from Pride and Prejudice. Overall it was a very enjoyable book and gave me the same feels as P&P. I honestly don't know why I was dragging my feet to get through this. Maybe I was just in a bit of a slump.
