Blood Magick

I really enjoyed this series. When reading it was like a flowing fountain of poetry. The family, friendships and love throughout was heart warming as it was heart wrenching. Good against evil and of course evil lost.

Nothing surprising here although it was nice to see Branna loosen up and live a little. I think the story might have been much more interesting if they'd defeated Cabhan in the first book and then something else came along in the next two. It was just the same thing all three times and he wasn't very threatening as a villain because they could just block him or cloak their actions from him, etc. Meh. Still, I liked the characters and wanted to read about what happens past these events so that's something!

Another great trilogy by Nora Roberts.

Between this one and the Circle Trilogy, I have to say this one is even better.
Probably because Ireland is awesome and you can really see it, and smell it, as you go along.
Having lived there for a year, I have to say this book brought me a lot of fond memories. And a very strong earning to become a witch (if I could!) ;)

Good choice if you want a beautiful romance book, with lots of great food and craic!

It's not you, it's me
Dear Nora Roberts, I think this is the book that finally ends our relationship after 30+ years. You haven't done anything wrong and you haven't changed - but I have. It's just not working for me anymore to read books about magical Irish witches who speak like fairy tale characters instead of genuine human beings. And epic battles against one-dimensional Eeeeeevil that we know will be resolved at the end of a trilogy that involves some combination of ingenues, tough broads, friends-turned-lovers, reunited-former-lovers, and lots of people uttering “so mote it be.” You're a great storyteller, but I need some new stories and new voices.
