Review: Great Read - Bad Curse
Rating: 5 out of 5

I read the original version of the book and let me tell you, this re-written/edited version is a lot better. The history of the curse and how the voodoo families are connected are laid out in a much better way than the original. It has good flow, the characters are more relatable, and the ending was setup much better for the next book.I can't even imagine what it would be like for the main characters - I'm not the child of a politician or a tarot-reading follower of voodoo, but Ford develops the characters in a way that makes you live the story with them anyway. You feel bad for Jayden when he feels that he can't do what he wants to do because of this family's political connections. You fear for Adrienne when she realizes that she is connected to this voodoo curse more intimately than she first realizes. You even feel for Rene when he gets stuck in the middle of this centuries old curse by forces outside of his control.I enjoyed this book and can't wait to read what is next for these characters.
