Really enjoyed this book - a very different genre for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I thought the narration was excellent, the characters and plot were enthralling.

Looking forward to the next in the series now.

Enjoyed this story of a long-lived witch and the man who made her that way who wants his payment.

I was bored with the story; not enough actual storyline to keep me interested. I read along with an audiobook and FOUR hours into it I still just couldn’t be bothered.

This was weird. As it went on it got better, but it felt like the flashbacks were more well written than present time, up until the very end. Like the last two pieces were better than the whole book. I know this is a whole series, but I’m not sure if I’ll read them.

3.5 stars overall, but I gave it 4 because of the ending. It kept me entertained just enough to read the next book.

"The Witch's Daughter" was well written and entertaining for the most part. The story was okay for me because it lacked character depth. I never got a sense of any of the characters' motivations, and I didn't particularly connect with any of them. It felt like only reading what was happening and not how or why.

Some people will probably love this book; just not me. I had to force myself to keep reading several times. There is just something about the flow of the story that just didn't work for me. I was not gripped by the characters or the plot.
