Review: Needs Some Polishing
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 10 20, 2013
There were enough typos for me to notice and a few editing issues.  The story was unusual, but I wish I could say I believed it was unusual in a *good* way - instead it's unusual in a what is this, is she TSTL way?  (Too stupid to live...) The plot twist was unique though, and so the three stars.  Plus, it was oddly wordy for a short story - maybe it was just that it had two writers and one could almost tell the difference in style?Of course we know she does live since the series is about her.  It was a weird juxtaposition of good mother and supposedly powerful, impetuous, inexperienced witch, which was confusing.  If the series is going to go with the Spanish heritage and witchcraft, it felt like it needed to be more serious and darker; if it's going with the fun, sassy spell dabling witch that messes things up, it needed to be more fun.  So?  We need a date for the next book to find out!
