chloefrizzle 's review for:

Sweetwater & the Witch by Jayne Ann Krentz, Jayne Castle
2.0

This book had a lot of elements that worked for me.
The personalities of the two leads were well established. I could understand why they work fanatically as a couple.
The supernatural animal companion was also a win.

What didn't work for me, in the end, wasn't anything you can tell from a blurb. It was the writing style that I didn't click with.

The book is written sparsely. So much so, that I didn't feel like it had connective tissue at all. Switching POVs was jumpy. Switching scenes was jumpy. Going from moment to moment in a scene was jumpy. I didn't have enough prose to understand what was really happening from beat to beat.

A video review including this book will premiere on my Youtube channel in the coming weeks, at https://www.youtube.com/ChloeFrizzle

Thanks to Netgalley and Berkley for a copy of this book to review. All opinions are my own.
