Cursed by Lizzy Ford
5.0
Cursed was the first ARC I get using Net Galley. I am not going to lie; I picked it up because of the cover. It just got my attention as I was searching for a book to read. Then I read the summary and I got really interesting as I was in the mood for some Halloween read. I hadn’t heard about this author before and a cause of that my expectations weren’t really high. Nonetheless, I ended up loving the book.
Adrienne moved to New Orleans, where her sister disappeared five years ago. She wanted to find out a bit more about her sister disappearance, as well as the cursed upon her family. The cursed should have ended with Therese’s death, but somehow she got the mark.
On the other hand, Jayden is tired of his mother’s crazy family. They still believe in voodoo magic, spirits and all that jazz. He, however, is totally skeptical.
Since the moment they meet a strong attraction will appear between them. Although, they are not aware of how deep their connection is.
Cursed was, in my view, an outstanding book. It hooked me from cover to cover. It was captivating, absorbing as well. Its pace was fast; nonetheless slow enough to let you made suppositions about the different mysteries going on. It seems to me that the whole voodoo magic was much more believable than the usual magic were people has powers. It also made the book unique, unless for me. It was the first time I read about voodoo magic, and I loved it. Moreover, there were some creepy also dark parts, which suited the book perfectly.
With the exception of the lack of a proper introduction, I can only said good things about this book. I felt the story started right away without the chance of getting to know well the characters.
To sum up, Cursed was a fantastic book. It was nail biting, fascinating, and overall awesome. I really recommend it, especially if you like fantasy and mystery. I am planning to read something else from this author, as I really loved this book.
