I have to give this adorable,
romantic comedy 4.5 ♥'s.
Contessa
Von Hellengaard starts as a self-absorbed, high-and-mighty witch with a feisty
temper. While you hope that she gets
what she deserves, you can't help but connect with her as she finds herself in
a situation ridiculously well suited to her needs. Along with her familiar, Jinx, Tessa finds
her life weighing in the balance and coming up short. The timely intervention of her coven, led by
her Aunt Trudy, starts Tessa through a masterfully designed obstacle course
that opens her eyes to her true fate.
The
characters are well developed and enjoyable to watch as they grow and
change. While this is a novella, it is
the perfect size. Caroline Mickelson has
a great sense of timing, humor, and irony.
This fast paced story takes you where you need to go. If getting there is half the fun, Witch Weigh
delivers a full serving. It is a
delightful story that I would feel comfortable recommending to anyone. I'm definitely putting Caroline Mickelson on
my "to watch" list.
Excerpt:
Fifteen sinful minutes late, Tessa swung the
Mercedes into a circle drive with only a minimal amount of flying gravel to
announce her arrival. She grabbed her black leather satchel and eyed the
occupant of the passenger seat.
“No, you
may not come. I’m tired of you following me everywhere I go.” She half closed
the door and then hesitated before flinging it open. “Oh, come on then. You’d
better watch yourself though or you’ll end up as annoying as a dog.”
She
slammed the car door as soon as Jinx, her sleek black short hair cat, jumped
out and made his all too entitled way to the front door of the Tudor home where
the council met. The cat was the least of her problems this morning.
Tessa
sailed down the hallway. The interior was dim and over-decorated, paying homage
to the Victorian style that her Aunt Trudy so loved. Much of Tessa’s childhood
had been spent in this very home and she knew it, and failed to appreciate it,
the same way she did her own.
