Invisible World (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

Suzanne Weyn weaves together magic in history in this tale that travels back in time to the Salem Witch trials in 1692. Magic and supernatural powers can be good or evil, and soon everyone in Salem must decide which side they will stand on. I love that magic is real in Invisible World (Scholastic 2012), but that magic doesn't excuse people from their choices. Yes, there may be an evil spirit running loose in Salem, stirring up trouble, but some people are all too willing to invite it in and let it take charge.I love the fiery independence of Elsabeth James. She comes from a long line of midwives, mind readers, and fortune tellers. Even though she is aware of the risks (her grandmother was executed for foretelling the the death of Mary Queen of Scots), she longs to use he powers to make an independent life for herself. However, her plans take an unexpected (and unseen) twist when the ship her family's on to travel to America sinks in the Atlantic Ocean. Eslabeth survives the shipwreck to wash up on the shores of a rice plantation. Aakif, one of the plantation slaves, rescues her and takes her to learn from Aunty Honey, who is another powerful healer.Once the white owners return at the end of the hot season, Elsabeth loses the freedom she cherishes. She is sent to Salem to be the servant of Reverend Parrish. On the journey she meets Mary Carmen and reunites with an unconscious Bronwyn. Attempting to help Bronwyn's spirit reunite with her body, Elsabeth inadvertently brings down an evil spirit that follows them into Salem. It will take all of her will and knowledge and help from others to drive the evil from Salem. Probably on the crappiest book I've read. I like that she falls in love with an African guy, which makes it interracial & I like that. But the plot is stupid, I hate how is written. I hate the characters. I hate the fact that after the boat crash they never mention how her dad & sister did. I hate that it did not have so many sexy or romantic kisses. I hated almost everything. Specially how slow the beginning started & how pathetic the ending was. I usually like the books I read, but this one was stupid & pathetic. I actually had big expectations in this book, but my expectation when down as soon as I started to read it.

What do You think about Invisible World (2012)?

Good book. I actually wrote an AR test for the book. It wasn't sent or published. It took too long.
