What can I add to Forever Girl that hasn’t already been
said? For me this was truly a fresh and intriguing tale. With all the attention
it is a wonder how or why Rebecca
Hamilton is not a New York
bestselling author, by choice perhaps?
Sophia Parsons is a practicing Wiccan who casts a spell that
goes horribly wrong. With that mistake come personal demons to accompany her
already troubled life. The story follows the paranormal activities that occur to the Wiccan crooner who must survive her choices and a life that is encrusted with
darkness seemingly at every turn. It is this struggle that the plot rides and
does so very well.
For me, I found the characters fresh and believable. The
storyline, though stale at points, always recovered in a big way. Intrigued,
curious and hungry is how the book leaves you – meaning one thing, on to
book two.
For the fan of the paranormal genre, this will certainly
please your literary palette. For horror lovers, there is that element but if
you are looking for a scare than move along. I have read that Forever Girl
is a multi-genre series, I have yet to see this but can’t really argue the
point. What I can tell you is that the tale is sharply written and there is
much to fall in love with here with Mrs. Hamilton’s muse.
Forever Girl is a well-crafted story with characters
that are both believable and likable. As well, the antagonist, perhaps Charles
is also well designed and serves the role justice. Overall – add it to your personally library
both as a reader and writer, we can all learn something from Rebecca Hamilton.
