Born Wicked The Cahill Witch Chronicles Jessica Spotswood Books

4.5 stars

What an enchanting debut! I love being swept away in a well written historical that has magic, romance, and paranormal elements in it, all of which Born Wicked has. Jessica's solid world building, well written characters and flawless plot line also added to my love of this book. Not to mention a strong protagonist, her forbidden romance (sold), and the dangers of living in a society that fear witches. Sounds intriguing right? I was totally addicted to Cate's story.

I really liked Cate and the relationship she has with her sisters. It felt real and genuine, and to me that goes a long way in a book. I felt like I was able to understand and being an older sister, connect with her on some level. With her mother's passing, everything Cate does revolves around her ability to take care of her sisters like her mother asked her to do. It's why she's overly protective about who knows the secrets she and her sister's harbor, why she and her sister's can't openly practice their magic, and why she must carefully choose who she can trust. In her quest for more answers from her mother's cryptic journal entries to her, Cate is also faced with a tough choice, follow her heart, follow the easier path, or join the Sisterhood.

No matter what Cate does, her every movement is being watched. It's like she's being hunted by the Brotherhood who are out to cleanse their society of Witches. Despite a society that frowns upon well educated women, I loved that, that doesn't deter Cate from being a strong, independent and knowledgeable women. Though I give her kudos for acting other wise when she needs to, to protect herself and her sisters. I liked that she thinks before she acts, and often times as hard as it is, she puts her sister's before herself. The one thing I loved that the did for herself, was who she choose to give her heart to. I have to say I loved both romantic interests- Paul the guy she grew up with and is able to have so much fun with, or Finn, the guy who's accepting of her no matter how proper or improper she may act at times.

A lot is at stake for Cate who only has a few weeks to declare who she's going to marry, or give herself over to the Sisterhood, who also harbor their own secrets. Her decision at the end totally surprised me, and I can't wait to the sequel. I really enjoyed Born Wicked. It's a wonderful, clean cut debut to sit and spend the afternoon reading. It's a book that has a timeless feel to it and one I'm looking forward to reading again. I think this is the first book in what's going to be a fabulous series. If you're a fan of magic, witches, forbidden romance and historical settings I highly recommend picking this one up.

Born Wicked The Cahill Witch Chronicles Jessica Spotswood Books Reviews


Cate Cahill is a witch, as are her two younger sisters, Maura and Tess. Unfortunately, it's a bad time to be a witch in Cate's place and time, with the Brotherhood (the priests who run the town) on the lookout for any girls who even seem like they might be witches. Cate made a promise to her mother, while her mother was dying, that she would look after her sisters and make sure nothing happened to them. That promise is getting harder and harder to keep as her sisters rebel against Cate's rules to not use magic and the Brotherhood gets increasingly aggressive about locking up girls who are the slightest bit different on suspicion of witchery. To complicate matters further, Cate is nearing the age when she will be expected to announce either her betrothal or her intention to join the Sisterhood, the sister organization of the Brotherhood which requires vows of chastity and humble service for life. Cate is interested in neither prospect. What she desires most is to stay at home and continue watching over her sisters. The Cahill sisters already have a reputation as eccentric and antisocial. When a nosy neighbor intervenes and talks their father into hiring a governess from the Sisterhood to guide the girls into proper behavior, Cate is sure their secrets will come out and they will all be in grave danger. What Cate doesn't know, is that this governess has secrets of her own, and her and her sisters' lives are in much more danger than she ever thought possible.

Born Wicked was a very enjoyable read. The danger and excitement are present pretty much from the beginning of the book to the end, making it a real page-turner. I read it in just two days. Cate is a great heroine. She's brave, loyal, and likeable, but human at the same time. Fiercely protective of her sisters, it's hard not to admire all she is willing to sacrifice to keep them safe. I thought all the characters were well-developed, especially Cate's sisters. The arguments and strife between them seem so true to life, despite the fact that they are very different from your average girls. I loved Finn, and I thought the way the relationship between he and Cate developed was both romantic and realistic. I was easily drawn into the story and felt like I was right there with Cate, experiencing her thoughts and feelings right along with her. I highly recommend Born Wicked. It has been on my TBR list for a long time and I'm kicking myself for not reading it sooner. I've already started the next book in the series, Star Cursed, and I'm loving it just as much! I usually write my reviews right after I've finished reading a book and before I start another one, but Born Wicked ended in a cliffhanger, and I just couldn't wait. Born Wicked is a great start to what looks like a great trilogy. Five stars.
