This was one of the worst books Ive ever read. The main character narrates the story and she really needs to get over herself. The actual plot of the book is hidden behind the main characters ego. There are really no redeeming qualities to this book. I will not read another by this author. It gets a 1 out of 5.

I'm not sure how much I really liked this book. The premise is good, and the author has come up with a world that isn't a cookie cutter of a lot of fantasy novels out there today. That being said, while I'm certainly no prude, I found the obscenities and some of the language rather crass. At times I didn't feel like I was reading about adults trying to save the world from demons, but watching some cheap high school show where the kids curse to bring some sense of shock value to the viewer. It was just out of sync with the slick, flashy style of the characters the author was trying hard to instill.
And the product placement was out of bounds. There were more name brands dropped than necessary. I watch TV for advertisements, thanks anyway! Between the brands for cars, clothing, cosmetics and others, I'm surprised there was time for demon fighting at all. A little less name dropping and the author and proofreaders may have noticed the errors of having Camille living on different floors of the house throughout the book.
The characters were okay, but it took some time to warm up to them. The main character is WAY too full of herself, and while I'm hoping it's because she's half Faerie and that's just how they are, it was real turn off after a while.
There are two other books in this series, and while I may read them to see how it all ends up, I won't be waiting in line to waste a credit, either.

I actually read the 2nd in this series, Changeling, first and really enjoyed it so went back to the 1st book, Witchling. I think the 2nd book was better. The author must be improving on each book. The books are about 3 sisters that are 1/2 human & 1/2 faerie but are also one witch, one vampire, and one werecat. This book focuses more on the witch sister, the 2nd book focuses more on the werecat sister. Im supposing the 3rd book, Darkling, will focus on the vampire sister. Good book.

Really, REALLY great book that while I had a lot of fun reading, the characters and their journey stayed with me longer after I shut the book on its last page. First off, as the author states on her website- this is an Urban Paranormal series, NOT Paranormal Romance like it's labeled. There is romance, but it's very sexual in nature and is not monogamous. Camille is a half-human, half-Fae with sketchy Witch powers. Her and her sisters work at keeping their old world and "Earthside" in peaceful co-existance, but some very bad demons put both worlds in terrible danger. This book has humor, adventure, horror, steamy sex and great relationships between the three sisters and their friends- all in under 300 pages!This is great for those who enjoy modern fantasy & paranormal stories and don't require a traditional romantic story. I'm in the middle of the second book, Changeling, and it's just as good, if not better than this. Highly recommended!

Pretty good. I will read the second and likely the third but not a book I would keep for a long time. Took me a while to get into it but about 1/3 of the way through I was interested enough to both finish in a few hours and want to read the next one.

Updated: I agree with other reviewers that the main character was full of herself and a little hard to like. However, I found the main character in the second novel fun and charming and the second book had a much stronger plot.

I liked this book. It put me in the mind just a little bit of Charmed, one of my favorite series. Not alot, but the whole witch thing, with the three sisters....You know. I thought the main character was likeable, but I really can't wait to read about the other sisters, especially the vamp.

Although I usually enjoy Yasmine Galenorn's books, this one I had a hard time with. It was too over the top for me. I like a bit of the paranormal, but this was so out there it didn't do it for me. I won't be reading the next one in the series, that's for sure!

Not one of the best paranormal romances that I've picked up lately. Kind of bored me until the dragon showed up. I'm not too fond of Camille, but since I have the next 3 books in the series I'll finish reading the series...hope something good happens!

So good I finished it in one evening because I couldn't put it down!

I loved this book! It was very action packed and juicey. There are three sisters that are half-human and half-faerie. Their powers are unpredictable but they kick some good demon butt! If you are into Si-fi and fantasy this is a good book/series to plunge into!

This book was alot of fun to read...it got me hooked right away and now I can't wait to read the others in the series.

The influences here are obvious. Laurell K. Hamilton, Rachel Caine, Kim Harrison, Charmed, Buffy, Angel . . . The result though is tepid because only the superficial bits of these influences have rubbed off and then regurgitated out into this novel.

It's about three sisters all half human, half fey. We have a witch, a vampire and a werecat. This story is about the witch named Camille. She has really big boobies (double D's if you must know), long lustrous raven hair and a face and body that all the men die for. She likes MAC makeup (hey, I thought even the most inept of the faerie could produce a glamour spell -- but what do I know?), sexy shoes, Victoria's secret undies and sex with hot men. This is our heroine, a woman we can all surely identify with, eh?

Camille, it is explained, is an inept witch because she's a half-breed but for some reason she, along with her sisters, work for some sort of covert between the worlds organization. Or something. I'll be honest, my mind started drifting early on here. The info. dumps were what did me in. I felt like I had been dropped plop into the middle of a series and I really hate that. Even more-so when I know this is book #1 of the series.

Apparently, one of their friends has been murdered and a demon has possibly breached the portal (yikes, we better get on this Scoobs!) and they must find 6 seals before a demon named "Badass Luke" (honestly, I did not make that up) or Armageddon will spread hellfire and damnation on all the realm (ok, I may have made part of that up). But instead of rushing out and trying to stop the big baddie straightaway Camille laments that she hasn't had sex in soooo very long and daydreams about her ex-lover who was oh-so-sexy but oh-so-bad for her. Gag me.

I finished it. It didn't get any better, only more convoluted and silly. There was some sex but even that was boring. Ah well, they can't all be winners.

I really liked this book. I did not mind all the background info at the begining. It was the perfect summer escape for me. I needed a light, funny, and thoughtful book to take my mind off things. Witchling was it.

Frankly, I was disappointed. The idea was great but the delivery/writing was lacking. The book comes off silly. Unfortunately, I have the entire series...wish I didn't...but hope the 2nd book is better.

Great start to the series....I read all the others about the sisters and await the rest. It's one to try.

I picked this up because a friend of mine recommended it. I was neither disappointed nor particularly impressed.

There seems to be an interesting premise buried somewhere under the characters and narration. The author doesn't seem to quite be sure of the narrator's voice which results in a fairly unsympathetic lead.

I did order the next 2 books in the series because I was curious about the rest of the story.

A delightful, generally light-hearted paranormal romp.

From back cover: We're the D'Artigo sisters: Half-human, half-Faerie, we're savvy--and sexy---operatives for the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. But our mixed-blood heritage short-circuits our talents at all the wrong times. My sister Delilah shapeshifts into a tabby cat whenever she's stressed. Menolly's a vampire who's still trying to get the hang of being undead. And me? I'm Camille---a wicked-good witch. Except my magic's as unpredictable as the weather, which my enemies are about to find out the hard way.

okay

Good book. Kind of hard to get into and follow at times but am I looking forward to reading the rest of the books in the series.

Didn't like this book, it was just too much fluff. I read 3/4 of it and couldn't finish. If you like light reads you may like it.
