So over the weekend I finished up a book I’ve been meaning to read for at least a year now. It was a very fun read, too: DOPPELGANGER by Marie Brennan. The best part about waiting to read a book is this: the sequel’s already out, and I don’t have to wait for it to be published. ;)

Anyway, the book sounded interesting and had been recommended to me, so I bought it. And then I decided that, based on the back cover, I knew what was going to happen. So I delayed reading it. And delayed. When I did pick it up about a week ago, I had determined that I didn’t care if I knew what the ending would be, because I still wanted to read it, even if my hopes weren’t very high.

I was wrong.

Well, not entirely. I did still have a very close idea how the ending would work out, even if I got some very critical details wrong. (That was a nice change, actually. Not only is the way it’s written much better than the ending I had been expecting, but it’s nice to get a twist like that to an ending that you’ve been predicting.)

And I was also not wrong in my initial thought of “this looks like a fun book.” It is a fun book. Very much so. (Ooh, and there wasn’t any obligatory romance in it! Very nice change.)

I do recommend this one. It was a very enjoyable read. ( )

A world where witches exist. When a witch is born, so is a lifeless doppleganger, which is immediately killed. One isn't though. She becomes a great hunter and the witch, as her initiation into witch'hood, must hunt her down and kill her.

This was pathetic. It was all about feelings and relationships, etc, etc. Not fantasy, para-normal chick-lit. I wish I had know that going in... ( )

An interesting blend of religious & political intrigue and personal identity. ( )

Wanted to like it more than I did. 2.5 if there were half stars. ( )

What a creative book! Her world building is impressive, although I wish I could have read more about it than just the glossary. The artificial depth was mostly well done but It certainly felt contrived at some points. I loved the idea behind the Goddess in her five Aspects, the channel and the elements of magic. So creative, as of course I knew to expect after The Secret History of Dragons . I can hardly wait to read Witch!!! ( )
