I wanted to like The Choosing. There were parts that captivated. I can overlook typos and the misuse of some words. That happens and you know what was intended by the context. But I had trouble with the uneven character development amongst the four main characters. Sara is winsome, delectable and clearly is written as a love interest for Seth but is not given the same depth as the other three companions. There is a scene where the twin brothers are given the opportunity to explore their magical abilities with the aid of the talented young healer of the group. There were four individuals in the room.. The companions. The three men each learn of their magical talents yet no one thinks to offer the same opportunity to Sara. I guess she was content to imagine how she was going to seduce her man. I found it a lost opportunity for plot development.
