Life’s a Witch is the first book in Skyler Andra’s Guild of Guardians series. Get ready to meet Astra. Astra just wants to help a friend. A friend who’s in a bad situation, but soon it’s Astra who’s going to be the one who is need of help. She gets caught stealing and is sent to the Guardians for the next 25 years for stealing from the Guild. Now, she has a whole new mess to deal with, but she doesn’t plan on going quietly.
Life’s a Witch is one of those books that grabbed you from the beginning and kept you page-turning! I love a good book that hooks me in and this book does exactly that. I will admit that I question Astra’s actions…quite often in this book. LOL! It all starts from the beginning with her deciding that answering a phone call during academy hours is the brightest thing to do. I get it; it’s in the name of helping a friend who has been wronged, but still. Then things just go from bad….to worse. I have to say that I like that the author doesn’t use the stereotypical characters. The author uses characters who aren’t the norm meaning that they have disabilities. As a person with a mild disabilities A.D.H.D. I love that they aren’t limited by them. Astra has some really cool abilities that I love when she uses them. Her breaking things down into their molecular basics are just honestly awesome.
This book is a lot of fun, but I have to agree with Tor on one thing…Knoxe needs to get the stick out of his butt. I mean…seriously! I get that losing someone close to you is hard and really messes with you, but dude!!! This guy is…over the top. Every time he opens his mouth rudeness pours out like crazy! There are moments of where I really just want someone to smack him or Duct tape his mouth shut lol. It just seems like he really doesn’t care about anyone or anything else other than getting back out on another mission to kill the one who ended his friend’s life. There are some moments of levity with him of where he tones down the jerk-y behavior…but they are few and far between.
Astra and Tor are the real driving force behind the humor in this book and I love it. I love seeing the chemistry spark up between them. I will admit that I roll my eyes at Astra a few times because she’s a bit ridiculous. The way her mind wanders off with her fantasies…LOL! Now, there are some odd…moments in this book. It’s like there are time skips? Astra gets a week in solitaire, Does she even serve her time? Then she gets some random guy to help her get to the training room because she’s lost, but…what happens to him? He’s there one minute and gone in a blink with no explanation. It’s just weird for me.
I am rating this book 4.5 out of 5 stars. This book has alternating chapters between the characters which really is great for giving readers a taste of all of them, though the story does focus on Astra mostly. I really enjoyed it. I get to see all the complexities of the characters and I love how the author builds the storyline. If you are looking for a good paranormal story with snark, drama and some steamy romance then I recommend this book! I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not. It my personal opinion!
