A review by corasteffani
Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough

4.0

Despite the fact that she was born to be one of the most powerful in her family,Tamsin isn't even considered as normal.Everyone in her family has a talent which manifests itself at the age of 8,however,in Tamsin case,at the age of 17,nothing has been manifested.
She wants to prove herself to her family,that she isn't a failure.So,when a stranger comes and asks her to find a family heirloom for him,as if to grab a chance,she accepts.She doesn't have the faintest idea that meeting that man will turn her life upside down,that some dark secrets will be revealed,that those important to her will be in danger.
It started off slowly for me,but the more I read the better it became. However,in my view the action picked up a bit late as I said earlier.I haven't read many books about witches,I think it is a good one,though.
And,I enjoyed the mystery in this book which had me one edge of my seat.In addition,the amount of romance in this book wasn't that considerable,and that was what I wanted,I mean I wanted to read a witchy book,not a romance!
