Every Gift a Curse by Caroline O'Donoghue
4.0
It's been a while since I related to a main character like I did with Maeve on this book, and seeing her grow from start to finish was... An experience.
I have to be honest, I didn't even dare try to think how this series would end, mostly because the difficulties of it weren't just magical or just mundane, it was quite intricately both at the same time. When it's just magical, you throw the impossible at it and when it's just mundane you just throw basic logic at it, it can be complex, yes, but it's easy that way. When you bring them inseparably together, the impossible needs to make sense and that isn't for just anyone but it was beautifully done here. Basically, I think that this was a great finish to a great story!
There are a couple of reasons I don't give this book (or the other two) five stars and those are absolutely my own things and nothing at all to do with the books or the stories, because I loved it! I loved the story, the characters, the arcs, the magic!
The question now is...
Will you take on the Housekeeper?
