Review: Scrivens (The Librarian's Coven Book 3) by Kathryn Moon

Scrivens Scrivens by Kathryn Moon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A little confusing in places

As you may have guessed from the previous reviews of the books in this series, I love it. I was all set to slap down another 5 star review after reading this one and I just can’t. There is so much love in this book. There is the interaction of the coven members and their complicated relationships, and their very hot sex. There is the intrigue of the Scrivens coming to the university to escape persecution in their homeland and there is mysterious magic occupancies on campus. However, there is a big chunk in the middle where I was left scratching my head. I was just plain confused. It sorted itself out later on, but it just broke things for me. The normal flow of this author’s work was abruptly stopped and started again and it threw me for a while. It took another couple of chapters for me to forget I was annoyed with the writing.

I think because I loved the other books so much, it was a much bigger disappointment than if this was the first book by a new author. I would be happy to write a four star review for a new author, but it’s a let down to write one for an author you really like.

As this is an ongoing series, I’m hoping that the next book will bring the normal excellent standard of writing back, but it in the meantime it’s left me a little disappointed and frustrated with the cliffhanger. I want Kathryn Moon to fix it!
