Weird things are happening and no one can really figure out why. She starts tutoring Morgan as soon as she gets there.The story shifts, suddenly we're aware of what Alisa is thinking, of her plans to write an article to "warn" people of this "strange magick" being practiced. Alisa hasn't been in the coven long enough and she was the youngest of all the members. Ciaran is on the run and he couldn't possibly be making them happen from how far away he is. Now that Cal and Selene are gone, I just feel that the story has lost its edge. so naturally, everyone starts blaming Morgan. Cal and Selene are dead. Honestly, this whole part annoyed me.
She's powerful, she uninitiated. maybe she's causing these things to happen without knowing it.Hunter brings someone to help Morgan learn more about her powers and how to control them. I was convinced that Alisa had something to do with all of the "accidents" since every time they happened, Alisa was around.As much as I love Sweep, I felt this book was a hassle to get through. Doesn't mean I hated the book or that I'll stop reading the series, that's just how this particular book made me feel.
The next book will focus on Hunter, but from there out the books supposedly focus on Alisa more. I understand that she's a teenage girl & that she's going through a lot, but at times she just didn't really seem to be able to see beyond her own problems. I'll warn people straight off the bat. Morgan can't help but wonder if these events- strange telekinetic events- are done because of him or if they are a new facet of her overwhelmingly strong magic that is threatening everyone. All I can say is that if you really have liked the series so far, you'll probably like this one as well. In this book Morgan finds that strange things are beginning to happen around her- even more so than usual. Morgan kind of wore on me.
Luckily since these books are so short, none of this is really that big of a problem- the book ends before any of it gets that annoying or disrupts my reading. This is the book where the series is supposed to start shifting the focus from Morgan to Alisa. Plus the whole "Morgan is great at everything" stuff gets a little old after a while. Her father still roams free, despite the attempts of the good witches who are trying to track him down. I liked this book for the most part, but at times I have to admit. This might not be as great as some of the earlier entries, but it is still good enough for me to give it 4 stars. This just might be one you would want to check out from the library first rather than buy outright, just to ensure that you like the way the series is starting to shift.
I didn't have this one when I finished reading number 8, so I was a little worried about being lost or confused when reading book 10. that is how unneccessary it is. I had nothing to worry about. you can completely skip this book and read the next without missing a beat. I went back and read it after reading the rest of the series and can honestly say I didn't miss anything. this series could have been written while leaving out this entire book and we wouldn't have missed anything really important.
The book was like new. It took longer than I expected to get here though. The SWEEP series is GREAT.
She's more concerned with Alise then Morgan. Morgan's blood father is overseas. Bree and Robbie are having some issues. Didn't feel like anything was really happening, but it didn't feel like a filler book either. And oddly enough, ever time one of these strange dangerous happenings occurs when Alise is around. It's frustrating, she holds too much in.I read this book fast.
However, Morgan's home life and grades are all failing terribly. She's there to teach Morgan about her magic. She needs to pull it all together.Strange things keep happening to Morgan, books fly off shelves, entire bookshelves try to cruse her, and she almost kills a friend with her touch in the hospital. But is it Morgan or someone else. In this the 9th book in the Sweep series Morgan and Hunter are finally a couple. So there were, Sky, Erin, Hunter, and Morgan. This suggests there were more than 4 in attendance.
The other situations are Hunter's parents.Morgan gives off the feeling of being very lonely in this book. Mary K is drifting farther away by the day. I personally think its Alise and not Morgan. A new player is in town, Erin, she's a healer and very powerful. And Alise is coming across as the poor me character.
I was disappointed that by the end of the book it wasn't made clear to me who was causing all these "happenings". Erin makes a statement very early in the book that she "thought there were going to be 4 blood witches" at their first circle. The one thing that does annoy me about this series and Morgan, she's never speaking up when she should, not to Hunter, not Mary K, not her folks. I'm curious if the next book will enlighten me about Alise.
