Review: Good but not great

I enjoyed Sorceress' Blood, however I really didn't get the "can't put this book down" feeling until chapter 5 (there were only 6 chapters - so near the end). I didn't like the fact that the book only had 6, long chapters. I read to and from work on the train/bus and in bed at night. I prefer shorter chapters so I can finish a chapter before having to stop reading (e.g. when my bus arrives at work). I found with this one I was often stopping mid chapter, which makes it hard to pick up again.The story itself was enjoyable but a bit slow moving for me at the beginning. It was a little unbelievable the bond Rebecca and Ashley formed so quickly (which made me think that maybe Ashley was Rebecca's daughter) but they were enjoyable characters and I was interested in what happened to them. The magic was fun to read about.I agree with other reviewers about the ending - the last line just didn't make sense at all given what we found out earlier in the book. There were a few questions left unanswered so a sequel would be great. But that said it ended satisfactorily enough that another book isn't needed. I would recommend it if you could sit down and read it in 1-2 sittings.I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for my review.
