I couldn't feel any connection with most of the characters except the main one, Aster. I couldn't see any reason why Aster couldn't practice spells, and why witchcraft is typically only for girls? However, Aster still wanted to practice witchcraft, and that became useful when the villain tried to escape from the parallel world, but he trapped him. I noticed that there was no explanation about how the parallel world came into being, which was a bit irritating, but it was a minor issue, maybe I could find out more in the next book in the series. The romance was kind of forced in, because I didn't feel anything when Aster and Charlie fell in love with each other. If you like a fantasy story, this is the book for you. no reviews | add a review

"In thirteen-year-old Aster's family, all the girls are raised to be witches, while boys grow up to be shapeshifters. Anyone who dares cross those lines is exiled. Unfortunately for Aster, he still hasn't shifted... and he's still fascinated by witchery, no matter how forbidden it might be. When a mysterious danger threatens the other boys, Aster knows he can help -- as a witch. It will take the encouragement of a new friend, the non-magical and non-conforming Charlie, to convince Aster to try practicing his skills. And it will require even more courage to save his family... and be truly himself. No library descriptions found. |
