I love reading books that are set in the Deep South of the US at the moment. There is something so charming and eerie about them at the same time. Healing the Bayou is no exception. I loved learning so much more about Voodoo. I found it really, quite intriguing.The beginning of the book had me gripped pretty much from the start. Mary Bernsen's storytelling is certainly catchy, however I found that the latter half of the book seemed to all happen too fast. I wanted to know much more about the way things happened to the main character. Why she made decisions so quickly, for instance, when there was life and death to think about. And speaking of life and death, I did think it could have been a little deeper, a little darker. As it stands, I would think this book would appeal more to the YA audience. All in all though, I did enjoy it and I would certainly read more from this author.
