"The Summer Solstice: Enchanted" Review

Hey guys! Since I've found myself on a "reading roll", I've got another review of a pretty great book for you guys. The book is titled "Enchanted", book one in "The Summer Solstice" series. The author of this novel is K.K. Allen, an amazingly sweet woman who sent me this book in exchange for an honest review.

Synopsis:

After her mother's mysterious death, Katrina Summer is hurtled into life in the quaint, seaside town of Apollo Beach where she learns of her Ancient Greek ancestors from which the Summer family descends. Leading to her birthday, the day of the Summer Solstice, enigmatic visions and disturbing dreams haunt her, but when her visions start to become reality, her fear turns to terror as powerful forces threaten the lives of those around her. Her world becomes filled with mythological enchantment and evil prophecies that lurk around every corner...

Rating:

3.5 out of 5 stars

Review:

Although I say 3.5 stars, overall I enjoyed this book. The only complaints I have is that I feel that it took too long in the novel to introduce the scenario and events that were occurring that it left me a bit confused and bored. However, once the real action and plot of the story picked up the pace, I devoured the rest of the book. And of course, who doesn't love an adorable ship to root for?! I love how original the idea for the story is; it's not just your typical Greek mythology book, it's something much more in depth and undiscovered. I will be receiving the second and third books soon to review, so keep your eyes posted for those. Until then, have a splendid week and a blessed Holiday Season!
