So slow and it dragged on sadly.

I think there is a decent story in this book, an interesting idea but it just dragged on and on. It had repeating thoughts, descriptions and phrases and the story didn't progress. 

I didn't care for either main character, the supporting characters felt weak too. 

Ending was odd, I'd probably have more to say if I cared about the characters or the story. 

Lacked any real fantasy, the witch wasn't really a witch and I didn't understand how or why the romance happened. 

Overall, I wouldn't recommend as I found it boring.
