The Near Witch

The premise was excellent, a stranger comes to near and that same night..... a child goes missing. As more children go missing over the course of the week, the town hunts for the stranger and the only thing standing in their way is Lexi. She knows he isn't to blame but can she find out who or what is taking the kids before it is too late?

It was a solid read.

I didn't really connect with Lexi. She felt a little dry. It didn't take from the story. I would have loved to know more about the Near Witch. I felt that it fell short which is why it didn't get 5 stars.

The predictable love story was tolerable as I felt it didn't consume the whole book so I over looked it. It was worth the read and I read it in one sitting.

The writing was really good, the author knows what they are doing. I will read more of her work.

If you love a solid YA Fantasy read that is easy and flows, this is the one for you.

4 stars!
