Witches is a wonderful, easy read. It is a good versus evil story with romance and family mixed in. It is interesting and fun without all the blood and gore. You get the idea of evil without having it described in gruesome detail. It is a book I read every year in the fall/Halloween time. (hint: I've read it several times over!) I understand she is to write a sequel....I for one can't wait!

Very suprised. The author paid attention to many of the small facts regarding witchcraft. I was gripped from the opening and stayed up to read this novel in 2 days. Can't wait to sample other offerings from this author.

Not sure what this is supposed to be...'Horror' it is not......

I guess it makes ok beach reading, or if you're stuck waiting at the doctor's office or something, the language is very simplistic, like in a romance novel or a 'young readers' type book, the cliches are thicker than New England fog, and the author's description of witches and their craft/religion is quite laughable.

Bubble gum for the brain.

This book grabs you right away.. you can't put it down. She is not an evil witch but a good one and the time travel has got a twist to it..I could read this again and again.

The author is quite repetitive (how many times do we have to bear her good/bad witches definition throughout the book, and so very poorly explained?). Often Kathryn Meyer Griffith falls in contraddiction describing the characters (once she describe one as short, later as tall), or describing their qualities (now the character, as a witch, is hungry and tired, and later the author declares the main character is feeling for the first time such things like hunger or tiredness, which she'd never experinced before thanks to her former powers). And so on.
The quality of the language is not very professional, and I felt like reading a love story booklet, rather than a horror/thriller book.
2 stars instead of 1, just cause the author took the effort to spend some time writing the book, and frankly I'm surprised she wrote more.

Meet Amanda a very powerful white witch or good witch. Meet Rebecca, Amanda's sister, also a white witch tho not as powerful. Meet Rachel a black witch from the 17th century.

Rachel was hunted as a witch, caught and thrown into Witch's Pond to her death. Now centuries later she's looking to come back and Amanda is her ticket if she can kill her. A Satanic cult has moved into Amanda's town and is killing innocents leaving Amanda's name as the calling card. Amanda is determined to find the cult and rid the world of them. In her attempt she loses her powers and is sent back to the 17th century, the time of Rachel, as Rachel. Here she again finds love, her Jake in another life. It's up to Rebecca to bring her back. Rebecca will find the Guardian's are real and she's much more powerful than she thought.

This is an excellent book with lots of adventure, witchcraft, love, and loss. I read this book in 2 sittings. I would not label this horror as there was nothing to keep me up looking in the dark corners of my bedroom. If you are looking for an excellent read, I highly recommend this book to the young and older readers.

The author weaves the story well. It had me spellbound from the beginning. This is a great read. I could not put it down.

The author of the book does a good job with grabbing your attention initially upon reading the book. Chraracters are well developed and most references appropriately made. The only let down comes with the conclusion of the book. If you are an avid reader of horror novels, you come to expect a climatic show down of the "Good-vs-Evil" theme. ... Overall, a good book to read to help the time go pass. Oh yeah, pregnancy from a man that lived over three hundred years ago, to be born in our era is a stretch, even for horror readers! If that is the case, Amanda could have easily brought Joshua into our era.
