Still Looking for a Good Witch Mystery
You know those parents who give in when their child throws a fit to get what she wants? Ever wonder what happens when said child grows up? Now I know. She becomes Stacy. She is described as "sassy", but she's not. She's rude, selfish and just plain mean. I made it to chapter 7 before I couldn't stand her anymore. In that time, she physically assaulted three separate people. Okay, one of those was a coworker who picked the lock on her office (possibly forgivable), but the other two (insurance agent and police officer) were simply doing their job.
I also couldn't figure out why her grandmother and aunts were so nice to her. Yes, she is family, but she is family that barges in and demands they use their powers (which she has openly shunned and denounced) to help her do her job. Right now. Thankfully, they didn't, but gave her the tools to do it herself. Cue another fit.
The story has such potential and I really wish I could get past my intense dislike of the main character enough to finish it. As it stands, I find myself hoping she will be framed for arson and be sent to prison for a long, long time.
