Reviews!

To any authors/publishers/ tour companies that are looking for the reviews that I signed up for please know this is very hard to do. I will be stopping reviews temporarily. My husband passed away February 1st and my new normal is a bit scary right now and I am unable to concentrate on a book to do justice to the book and authors. I will still do spotlight posts if you wish it is just the reviews at this time. I apologize for this, but it isn't fair to you if I signed up to do a review and haven't been able to because I can't concentrate on any books. Thank you for your understanding during this difficult time. I appreciate all of you. Kathleen Kelly April 2nd 2024

Once in an eon, when the Earth eclipses the moon on a winter solstice, an immortal is born under a witching moon. Anne has always had the strangest feelings—memories she couldn’t place; strangers she inexplicably yearned for.

After she rescues the enigmatic Phillip from a shipwreck, her comfortable life on the island of Cusabo is shattered, and the mystery of her destiny starts to fall into place. Anne leaves behind the life she’s always known and sets out with Phillip on an arduous journey to Amaranth, where her ancient family awaits her. But the path is dark and daunting, and Anne’s powers have only just begun to manifest.

You can purchase a copy of Witching Moon on AmazonBarnes and Noble, and Bookshop.org. You can also add Witching Moon to your Goodreads reading list.

K. E. Bonner, author of Witching Moon, was always the first kid to sit down during a spelling bee. It wasn’t until she was an adult that she was diagnosed with dyslexia, which explained why she always had to study three times harder than her peers. Being dyslexic taught her perseverance and kindness, her two favorite attributes. She lives in Georgia with her husband, two sons, and two dogs. When not writing, she loves to read, swim, explore new places, and meet fascinating people. If you have a dog, she would love to scratch behind its ears and tell it what a good pup it is.

My Thoughts

Witching Moon by K.E.Bonner is a YA fantasy book about a young girl Anne, who was orphaned at birth and taken in by the midwife. She is happy with her family until a man, Phillip, is shipwrecked on the island she lives on, and she rescues him. He has been searching for her for a long time and tells her she is immortal and reborn. She has had dreams of a girl who looks like her, turns out the girl is her sister, and she wants Anne back with the family that she came from. Phillip tells her tales of a place called Amaranth. She is skeptical at first but eventually decides that she will go with Phillip. It is a journey fraught with danger as there are other entities that want to stop her.

The story takes place at the end of the Civil War in I believe is North Carolina and South Carolina. I could tell that when certain cities are mentioned. I found that interesting that a fantasy story about immortals can run parallel to the true event in American history, a novel concept.

I don't usually read YA books; they just do not hold my interest but this one was good. I am not a fan of fantasy either but the way the author wrote it it really didn't seem that fantastical. I do love the cover; I think that is what attracted me to the book plus the title intrigued me. This is a standalone book. A book worthy of anyone's bookshelf!

I give it four stars.

I received a copy of the book for review purposes only.
