Next up on my reading list...

As you all know we just finished up reading The Witch's Daughter by Paula Brackston and while I was adding that to my hold list at my local Library (Which I am sure the Librarians are starting to hate me because I have a request list that is never ending...) I saw that this was another book by Brackston and it sounded equally as intriguing.

Now I will be the first to say that I was not a fan of The Witch's Daughter honestly. I enjoyed parts of the story, I just feel there were a lot of un-explainables and I am not a fan of un-explainables in books. And by un-explainables I really mean things that just didn't add up or that could have been explained with better deatil. Though that is all personal preference. I know some of you truly enjoyed the book and all for different reasons, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed that the book did not live up to my expectations, but that did not detour me from reading more of Brackston's books. I am praying this one lives up to my expectations. The story line sounds extremely intriguing so fingers crossed.

Here is what
Goodreads.com has to say about The Winter Witch

"In her small Welsh town, there is no one quite like Morgana. She has never spoken, and her silence as well as the magic she can't quite control make her a mystery. Concerned for her safety, her mother quickly arranges a marriage with Cai Bevan, the widower from the far hills who knows nothing of the rumours that swirl around her. After their wedding, Morgana is heartbroken at leaving, but she soon falls in love with Cai’s farm and the rugged mountains that surround it, while slowly Cai himself begins to win her heart. It’s not long, however, before her strangeness begins to be remarked upon in her new village. A dark force is at work there—a person who will stop at nothing to turn the townspeople against Morgana, even at the expense of those closest to her. Forced to defend her home, her love, and herself from all comers, Morgana must learn to harness her power, or she will lose everything..."

Goodreads also makes a point to say that if you are a fan of Discovery of Witches than this is the book for you...so again this makes me think I will enjoy this book immensely because I am a HUGE fan of The Discover of Witches.

Happy Reading!
