Widdershins

I did it. I finished. Phew! That was more difficult than it should have been, but that's what I get for choosing a historical, knowing it's a genre I typically dislike. Some books have been able to hook me despite this handicap, and I thought Widdershins had a chance with so many high ratings by my friends, but alas, it bored me terribly. The paranormal aspect was the sort that I don't usually go for either (spell-casting), so the only thing left to grab my attention was the characters and their personalities. Unfortunately, neither caught my fancy, so I was left trudging my way through until things finally got interesting right near the end. I know better than to try to read the rest of the series though. It was not poorly written, so I am giving it 2 stars.
