I'd been looking forward to Born Wicked for quite some time, so when I finally got my hands on it, I was a bit disappointed. It was definitely interesting, at the least, and I liked reading about how different the three sisters were and how Cate, the oldest, dealt with being a stand-in mother for her siblings and how that affected their relationship. The rest of the plot seemed to move slow as molasses. I really couldn't have cared less for the weak love triangle, and none of the drama felt real because nothing felt like a threat the way Cate believed saw it. The writing could have been stronger. I think I'll probably pick up the rest of the series to see what happens, but it's not high on my want list.
