Shifting Identity (The Magickeepers #1)

by Jasmine Bowen, Zhu Hsia

Overall I really enjoyed this book and look forward to more in the series. The story line and concept were interesting to me and I was compelled to keep reading to find out what happens.

The only thing that could have made it better for me was more in depth characters. I feel we didn't get to really know enough about Jules and his being "sick" didn't really amount to anything after what seemed to be months of an illness. Also Karina who I thought I knew about through the book I felt a little disconnected with at the end in the scenes with her friends since there was not a lot of interactions between her and her friends before that point.

I received this book free through LibraryThing in return for my honest review.… (plus d'informations)

I agree that this book is well worth the read. It does start off very slow and seems to drudge on but it builds the story well and then you really get into it. The main character Karina is lost in her own kind of world where what she wants seems to be there but yet so far away. What she wants is to interpret for the ones tht are defenseless against the growing population of haters to the also growing population of deformed witches. When her high school sweet heart and first love tried to talk her out of her dreams she starts to realize that sometimes life has a way of telling you where to go.reccomended for ages 12 and up very clean read!… (plus d'informations)
