the book girl reviews Like A Charm

I really liked this book, but wasn't aware that it is part of a series. I really thought this worked as a stand alone, and it made me want to read the other books. Kira's life is really funny and sad at the same time. As a reader, you feel for everything she has gone through (even though it all happens before the book begins) I think the author did a great job of balancing the realistic and fantastic elements of the story. When the ghosts appear, it just fits into Kira's life. I can't wait to read the Bronwyn series (which are being released in MMP) and the upcoming release, The Demon King and I. more reviews at [...]

She not only sees dead people, she checks out their books, too.

Great book. I really liked the whole story line. I hope Candace Havens writes more books with these characters. The dead people are a hoot.

Rollicking good read

I received this book on 23 Febraury 2008, and, literally, could NOT put it down until I finished it. Then, I re-read it AGAIN, and found that I enjoyed it even more. For those of you out there who haven't made the acquaintance of Bronwen the witch from Ms. Havens' earlier works (The CHARMED AND . . .) series, this is a good book to get to be introduced to Ms. Haven's fun and highly entertaining worlds. I live in Texas, in a small town that is very similar to Sweet, Texas (don't THINK we've got a psychic librarian, or a coven of witches keeping us all safe - but I wouldn't bet against it either) but Ms. Havens captures small-town Texas perfectly. Kira Smythe is the daughter of hippies, who is a VERY high-powered corporate attorney in Atlanta. After a truly traumatic happenstance in her life that is complicated by a major illness, she comes home to Sweet to recuperate - and that's when the fun starts. I won't spoil the book for all of you potential readers out there by saying anything more. Just buy the book, and get the CHARMED AND . . . series by this same author. You won't be disappointed!
