Witches of Hollow Cove #9
Magia rebelde
Mi tía Beverly se va a casar.
Debería alegrarme por ella. ¿Verdad? Pero no, no lo estoy. Porque sé que este aparecido de Derrick es una mala noticia. Llámalo mis instintos de bruja, pero estoy convencida de que algo anda muy mal con el tipo. Entonces, ¿cómo se lo demuestro a mi tía?
La presión aumenta, ya que solo tengo cuatro días para averiguarlo antes de la boda; sí, cuatro días hasta que Beverly diga “acepto” a ese baboso bastardo.
A medida que las pistas empiezan a encajar, tengo que abrirme paso entre un montón de mentiras para llegar a la verdad y descubrir quién es realmente Derrick Baudelaire... y qué esconde.
Pero entonces ocurre lo peor. Mientras intento descubrir los oscuros secretos de Derrick, Lilith me llama. Está dispuesta a poner en marcha su plan. Su plan para matar a su marido, alias Lucifer, el rey del infierno. Y yo soy su arma secreta.
El problema es que, esta vez, podría no regresar con vida.
Prepárate para otra aventura llena de risas. Si te gustan las aventuras de fantasía urbana de ritmo rápido, con una heroína que patea traseros y mucha acción, suspenso y humor, te encantará Magia Rebelde.

This urban fantasy series with its cozy vibe and snarky protagonist is a hoot. Poor Tessa always seems to deal with one crisis after another. Her Aunt is about to get married and Tessa has no love for the slimy groom. He is up to no good, and she intends to prove it.
Meanwhile, Lilith (who Tessa early, accidentally set free) the ex-wife of Lucifer, has decided he has to go and plans to use Tessa to do it. Oh lord, this was a crazy tale with plenty of twists and developments.
Beverly is smitten with Derrick and things get crazy when Tessa discovers who he is, or should I say what he is? Between that and Lucifer, Tessa sees herself in danger, and suffers magically.
Secondary characters, Tessa’s wereape boyfriend and townsfolk, add to the story and kept me engaged. The story has it all from romance to mundane family issues and never a dull moment in between. I am really curious to see what will happen next. As with most fantasy series, it is best to listen to this series in the order of its release.
Devon Sorvari narrates and does a lovely job giving voice to Tessa and the other characters. She captures the tone and pacing of the story perfectly. Her narration enhances the stories and I recommend listening to the series. This review was originally posted at Caffeinated Reviewer

In spite of all the crazy that ends the previous book, life goes on and Beverly announces she's getting married.
However, the groom to be is Derrick, the man who caused Beverly to get a boob enhancing spell, that thankfully has now expired. In a twist, three witches that look a lot like Dolores, Beverly and Ruth show up, they are claiming rights to Davenport House. They are Davina, Belinda and Reece, the Wanderbush witches, first cousins of the Davenports. It's their appearance that casts doubt on a card that shows up with the RSVPs with simply the words HELP ME on it. Tessa isn't convinced it's some sort of prank and she's going to investigate it anyway.
Tessa doesn't trust this man and when they have him over for dinner, she finds him in her room when he was supposedly answering a call. This doesn't end well for Derrick, or for Tessa. Her aunt doesn't believe her over her fiancé, and as a result Tessa is uninvited from the wedding.
After that encounter she goes heads out to see Marcus.
When Tessa's mother arrives things get even more interesting, especially with Obiryn around. It's quite the living soap opera.
Iris and Tessa with some help from Ronin, take things with the mysterious card into their own hands and that leads to even more intrigue and danger.
I laughed, cried and screamed a bit at this book.

The world continues to evolve in lore as we watch Hollow Cove continue to end up with problem after problem, though to be fair for this one it's less a town problem and more a family problem because Beverly is getting married but Tessa doesn't trust her fiance.
I do love that Tessa does follow her instincts, but I'm starting to feel like her aunts are acting a little childish about things. Though that started a few books back when Dolores was kind of a jerk to Tessa with that big coven that it was starting back then. I donno if it's me but Dolores has been getting meaner and meaner to Tessa over the last few books.
The story is pretty solid, I'm still invested in Tessa and Marcus' relationship right now, so I'm having hope that maybe it'll get better in books. We'll definitely see though.

I was surprised there were grammatical errors this time around, normally there aren't any. Story was on par with the rest of the series, the same stuff, except there is the ongoing bigger plot between Lillith and Lucifer starting to spice up.
Not quite sure if we will ever see any growth from the main character, but I am invested to see what's going to transpire between the demon and demoness saga.
Also I am confused as to why the author refers to Tessa's boyfriend as Marcus and the chief and sometimes in the same sentence, we all know he's the chief, so he can just be Marcus. I also think there's no need to rehash the Dana book every story, anyone who's on book #9 already knows that. There's too much repetitiveness about certain things that doesn't need to be there.

Loved being back with Tessa and her aunts. And with Marcus. Especially Tessa and Marcus. This time, Beverly is getting married and Tessa is out to prove her fiancé isn’t who he says he is. Unfortunately, Beverly is smitten and doesn’t want to hear, or believe anything Tessa has to say, which again causes problems with them all. Not only does Tessa want to save her aunt, but she still has her task to complete for Lilith. And as usual, things are not exactly easy for Tessa. She gets into a lot of trouble, both physically and magically. I did not see that ending coming and it was a shocker. Definitely can’t wait for the next book!

This was maybe the worst book I've ever read. It reads like a self-insert Wattpad fanfic written by a 13 year old in 2016. The weird pop culture references and overly snarky main character comes across as childish and self-indulgent. Its the sort of thing someone would write when they feel like they have no power in their real life, so they invent a character who can say all the quippy comebacks that, in real life, they only think of after the argument is over. It says a lot that the gorilla shifter boyfriend isn't remotely the worst part of this book. Would've DNFed if I didn't need those sweet sweet page points...

This was so good I read it in one sitting. Action, mystery, humor, spells, almost sex, demons, shifters, and witches oh my. And one evil incubus. I love all the books in this series. It's seriously addicting. The Merlin witches are special enough but add in Marcus and Oberyn and you've got a winning combination.

If you love a snarky sassy witch demon with a wereape boyfriend well this is the series for you! Kim Richardson is a wonderful writer who tends to wake up my husband while he is I. A deep sleep…how you ask well I am reading and then I start laughing and not just a little laugh but a bed shaking one! Seriously though read this!

Tessa continues to take us on one hell of a rollercoaster ride filled with magic and mayhem, keeping us readers on our toes. She always seems to get herself into troubling predicaments, which makes me laugh. There is no end to the entertainment she brings me with her sarcasm and wit.
Loved this portion of her story and was a bit shocked at the way it ended. I can’t wait for the next part.

Laugh out loud fun
I've love Tessa's attitude and snarky sarcasm along with her two best friends. Her family is always hoot as well and the visit with the lookalike cousins was a comedy gem. I can't wait for the next book. I've loved this series from the first page of the first book, can't wait to see where it continues to go!

Damsel in distress
I'm really getting bored of the damsel in distress situation that occurs in every one of these books. And I'm really getting bored of Marcus saving Tessa constantly. She's a witch with significant power yet she's constantly in need of saving. It makes her look incompetent . Can't she ever get herself out of these situations?

La boda de Beverly trae muchas incertidumbres.
La boda de Beverly se acerca, Lilith, la Reina del infierno, continúa con su drama, Lucifer, el rey del infierno y una nueva protagonista, Evelyn Star. Todo esto proporciona una aventura de acción increíble que Tessa tiene que descifrar y salvar el día. Me encanto esta aventura aunque el final es algo decepcionante.

Another fabulous book in the series
I highly recommend reading this book if you have liked any of the previous books. Tessa never fails to amuse me with her antics. The book left off in a good spot for a sequel that I cannot wait for!!

Another awesome, fun read. Tessa & her act now think later desire to help people (especially her family) gets her into trouble yet again. But this time there are dire consequences. I’m looking forward to find out what happens next.

Stolen Magic
Awesome fast paced read, great story and characters. Beverly is getting married but Tessa knows something is wrong and magic is telling her so, can she stop her aunt from making a decision she'll regret or will she be to late. Great read

Lucifer Sucks
Well, he does! This book made me giggle and cry more than once! In some ways I could related to Tessa! From deep love to feeling totally lost!
At least she has lots of love and support around her! Including her ever so sexy wereape, Marcus!

An extraordinary series
Kim Richardson is an amazing author. Her Hollow Cove world is amazing. I wish I could live there for a few days and just soak it all in.
I highly recommend anything by Richardson.

This one was certainly exciting! Of course, Tessa thought she knew what she was doing, but obviously was unprepared for the outcome. It was a good read and I'll move on to the next segment to see what happens to our girl there!
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

Not quite as good as the other books as this one seemed to drag slightly. Still quite an enjoyable read.
