A really good story. The romance element was quite small in this book, but for some reason I still found it really cute. I just loved the fact that the guy was a bit of a geek, and somewhat annoying, but I liked him anyway. Makes a refreshing change from all these "Og. Smash" Alpha male types. I'm l...

What a great novel! I was afraid, very afraid, that I might not like Dime Store Magic. Paige wasn't my favorite character in the least before (reminding me a bit of myself and even more of someone I like even less) but she was a great heroine and the book was so much fun to read.After introducing us...

The first time I read this book, I had a hard time getting into it. I loved Elena as the narrator of the first two books in the Otherworld series, and now, Paige is the narrator. I didn't really like Paige in Stolen, but I have to admit I gained an appreciation for her throughout the course of thi...

I was a little leery going into the third book of the Otherworld series since I loved the character of Elena and the werewolves from book 1 and 2 so much. However, I surprisingly grew to like both Paige (the narrator, a witch) and Savannah (talented witch teenager) in this novel. Lucas (sorcerer), w...

I was initially sad to not be focusing on Elena anymore as a main character, but I found Paige really easy to relate to, and overall really likable. The book seemed to consist of one bad thing happening to her after another, but that helped me get into it right away. I enjoyed the story, and I reall...

A ridiculously fast re-read, done mostly to keep my mind of a building headache. It's done well enough. I found the story interesting. I just remained amazed that Paige could be so naive. Mistake after mistake, and the classic romantic "throw your rescuer out on his heels" mistake. Still, maybe smal...

Paige is a witch, and Coven Leader of the American Coven. That sounds more important than she really is, because the Elders don't really want to give her any power. Now she has to look after Savannah, daughter of deceased dark witch Eve, with powers no one can predict.Enter Leah, bad half-demon, a V...

3.5 stars - good but not great. It took about 2/3 of the book before I started feeling like it wasn't a chore to read it. Paige was a little ditzy for the leader of the American Witch Council (or whatever it's called). The bad guys kept tricking her to go out on these "emergency" errands and she ...

Armstrong is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I love how she weaves all aspects together in a great story; paranormal, suspense, mystery and romance. I enjoyed the first two stories, which involved the werewolves, more than this one. However Paige, Lucas and Savannah provide entertainmen...

This third book in Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series moves away from the Werewolves Clay and Elena and switches to the story of Paige the Witch.To be honest, I wasn't that crazy for Paige's story. Not because I wanted to stick with the Werewolves (although that would have been fine t...
