This has to be one of the worst books I've ever read. I don't know how I finished it. I guess I thought it would get better? Problems I have with this book:1. Nothing ever happens. 2. Jennie is supposed to be this amazing, wise mentor, but she has two other people do all the work and only complains about how horrible things are going. 3. This is this happiest, fakest book I've ever read. It reminds me of that perky person that you hate because they never get upset about anything. 4. The name Lizard. 5. Lizard constantly calling herself and her actions stupid. 6. Nat is a pregnant yoga instructor who constantly does handstands.... Pregnant yogis should not be doing lots of handstands or inversions. Yoga 101. 7. Why didn't we ever find out anything about Elsie's or Lizard's past? That was getting interesting, and then it was just dropped. 8. Everything about Jennie was annoying. 9. The horrible emails. They made me want to scratch my eyeballs out. Things that made me give this book one star instead of zero:1. I actually like Nat despite her doing handstands while pregnant. 2. Jamie and Ayven (spellng?) are adorable. That's pretty much it. Witches On Parole is not my usual sort of book, but I absolutely loved it. Generally, I read romance novels, but this book falls more into the chick lit category. Instead of focusing on a developing relationship between a couple, Witches On Parole concentrates on the importance of sisterhood and community. Jennie, a witch in her 50s, is issued her very first students. The first is a 21-year-old artistic type with a troubled past. The second is a 30-year-old professional with a type-A personality. Sparks are flying all over the place as these ladies learn to not only respect each other, but also learn to trust and appreciate each other. This is the first book in the series, but it is not the first series dealing with these characters. I would recommend reading the other series first, but it isn't necessary.
What do You think about Witches On Parole (2011)?
