Always a Witch
by Carolyn MacCullough
Goodreads Summary: Since the gripping conclusion of Once A Witch, Tamsin Greene has been haunted by her grandmother's prophecy that she will soon be forced to make a crucial decision—one so terrible that it could harm her family forever. When she discovers that her enemy, Alistair Knight, went back in time to Victorian-era New York in order to destroy her family, Tamsin is forced to follow him into the past. Stranded all alone in the nineteenth century, Tamsin soon finds herself disguised as a lady's maid in the terrifying mansion of the evil Knight family, avoiding the watchful eye of the vicious matron, La Spider, and fending off the advances of Liam Knight. As time runs out, both families square off in a thrilling display of magic. And to her horror, Tamsin finally understands the nature of her fateful choice.
Review: It's been a while since I read the first book of this two book series, but MacCullough did a fantastic job at reminding readers what happened without being too obvious. No time is wasted before Tamsin is forced to act, and I was soon caught up with her determination to save her family. Although I did question how accurate the Victorian-era world was portrayed and how time travel works, it was still a fun and fast read. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good supernatural book that involves magic, but is sick of vampires, werewolves, or fairies. Be sure to read the first book, Once a Witch, before tackling this one.
Overall Rating: 3.5/5
