Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough
4.0
Whenever I go to the library, I always look for books with pretty covers and/or interesting titles. I picked up Once a Witch and read the plot, which I liked.
The story was interesting as were all the characters. I liked how the main character, Tamsin, unraveled the history of her family and ultimately saved them from destruction in the end while sacrificing her Talent. It had magic, time travel, and some romance (but not to the point where it got overwhelming). Thankfully there were no boring (read: beige) characters.
Tamsin and Gabriel (her boyfriend) were realistic and I liked that. As a reader, I could connect to them, which I believe is an important quality.
