Tellulah Darling

Not quite as fantabulous as book one, but still, something really compelling about it. First the quibbles - at times it was a little too precious, a little too drawn out with the yearning and emotional issues. I wanted to tell Magalie to get over herself sometimes because enough already. Maybe it just could have been tightened up a bit.

But then see, there was the magic. The dark, swirling witches magic of this little tea shop (not literally but maybe) that I was completely enchanted and ensorcelled by. I fell into Magalie's and Philippe's antagonism and desire and when this book was good, it was very good indeed.

So unless book three throws me a curveball, I'm hook line and sinker into this series.
