Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough
3.0
I really started out liking this book. I loved how our heroine was counted as the "outcast" among her family. How the love interest/childhood friend came back into the picture. How she popped back into time and so forth. The set up was neat and I loved it.
But then, the more I got of the heroine (sorry I forgot her name and it's been a year since I've read this book) the more I disliked her. The more she made snarky remarks. The more I rolled my eyes. Suddenly, everyone was becoming over the top--like MacCullough was trying too hard at what she was doing. The plot went along nicely but, man was I getting tired of everyone real quick.
I know I'm a harsh critique, but at the same time I can imagine how my rating of 3 1/2 stars could be a 4 1/2. So There you go.
