My grandmother said it was idiotic. I didn’t agree ... until I came face to face with a demon and the bastard ate my Prada shirt.
Like, who does that?
You’d think he’d be into souls, not silk, right? But it could have something to do with my spastic magic.
My rogue powers were what got me into this mess. And now I was shackled with River Blackman.
In just a few hours, the arrogant male made me regret everything—including the day I was born. Unfortunately, my little fiasco with the fashion-munching demon came with a price, so I had to play nice with the high priest.
The problem?
River had secrets of his own. And if the skeletons in his closet were ever unleashed, we’d both wish we were dead.
As if I needed more help in the kick-bucket department.
I was just about ready to pitch a witch...
Pitch a Witch (Journals of Forbidden Witchery #2) Reviews
-
Hmm… I don’t know why I’m disappointed. I guess it just didn’t hit the same as book one.
We have the same sassy main character, except now I think her attitude is over the top. We have the same delicious sexual tension with River, except now I think it’s been going on too long without any progress (they didn’t even kiss once 😭). We have the same easy to read writing, except now I think there should have been so much more of it.
The start doesn’t feel like the start of a new book (how do I explain this?) It’s just so… nonsensical. I probably wouldn’t have minded if it happened later in the book, but it didn’t work as an opening for me. It made Hazel appear whiny and impractical. I did enjoy the middle of the book, but not as much as I expected. And worst of all, as soon as things get interesting the book cuts off on a cliffhanger.
I needed so much more of this. I was delighted to be reunited with some of my favourite characters, but I feel like I only got a brief tease. Even so, you couldn’t keep me away from the next (hopefully longer) book.
ARC received in exchange for an honest review. -
This is the second book in this series and I loved this one just as much as the first! If you like witches, magic, and urban fantasy this book should definitely be on your TBR list ASAP. This one starts off right where the first one left off, and ends in a definite cliffhanger. I can’t wait to read the next book!

This book could be so much better
Ok I'm a big fan of fmc with sass but this character is down right annoying I would love to punch her in the face and tell her to grow up and get a brain I barely finished the first book but thought hey she might grow up in the next book but nope. I am so disappointed the series would have been great if she had a better fmc I was finding myself browsing pages to skip out her bull to get back into the story I read the book in about a hour because of it will not be reading the next one. -

What will be in store for the next part of the journey?

Good
**WARNING! Cliffhanger!**
Picking up from where book one left off, we find Hazel living in the pack lands, getting some training from the shifters. She hasn’t heard from her best friend Sissely for a week, and she has no idea what her grandmother Danika and the annoying (but attractive) River are up to.
A trip back to the coven house leads to a demon attack, and a number of secrets are revealed before Hazel and her friends head further into adventure.
The book ends on a pretty big reveal and cliffhanger, and fortunately we only have to wait two months (at the time of writing this) to find out what happens next.
There are also two chapters preview of a book from another series by the author at the end of the book, so don’t be too surprised when it stops at the 90% mark.
It’s still a good and very entertaining read, and yes, Hazel is just a little annoying at times (a flaw the author even acknowledges), but it just adds an edge to be rubbed smooth by the events yet to occur!
If you enjoy urban fantasy stories in a kind of serialized format, then you’ll enjoy this one. -
There was alot of action in this book. Some good fight scenes. Hazel got a bit more insight to her magic and parentage.
We still need more answers.. about her.. and what's the high priest game?.. the vampires and the demons?.. Alex and Amber are great characters, Hazel needs them. Sissily is amazing and knows exactly how to handle Hazel. Their banter is so funny.
More is revealed about River. I like him too..
I'm not sure how I feel about Hazel if I'm honest. She can be a strong, sassy women. Loyal to those she cares about. Determined. But her attitude was getting to me. They way she is with River. There is something there with them, will she allow that to happen?
Even she admits to acting like a teenager. But the continued pushing away... I'm sure Maya is teasing us!
I look forward to the next book in this series and hope that Hazel learns to trust more and be more open to her feelings and not so closed off.
I received a copy of this book, in return for an honest review. -
This is book 2 in the series. It picks up where book 1 left off. Hazel is her snarky sassy self. She is used to blending in and not being noticed. When she opened Pandora's box, all hell broke loose. She ends up with so much power, and she needs to learn some people can help her not all of them are bad. The relationship between River and Hazel is hilarious!! Their relationship is definitely taking a different turn, if Hazel allows it. This book was awesome!! You learn more in this book. Secrets come out and relationships get stronger. It's full of suspense, action and humor!! Grab your copy and enjoy Hazels world, you won't be sorry!!

oh boy
So… sometimes I kinda wanna smack Hazel in the forehead. I get exactly why she is the way she is. She’s sound a coping mechanism. However, she’s also her own worst enemy. She does cause her own chaos. So now we have seen sissily as the bestie. We’ve gotten to know River a little bit. And I’ve definitely fallen in love with Amber and Alex and their family. My heart also kinda breaks for Ace but we can’t help that. So now we’ve got all kinda crazies after Hazel. And she can’t seem to just be. And I have a feeling now that all the crazy is coming out, it’s gunna get worse before it gets better. -
Its so good to get back into Hazel's world!!
Like book 1, this was a fun and action packed read, with lots of revelations revealed that just keeps you turning the pages to discover more! I loved the continued deep friendship between Hazel and Sissily as they try to take on the world together! They're slowly learning that they can open up their little circle to others, but its a very new concept for them both. River is another great character that you know theres more to come about him yet - and I cant wait to discover it!! -
Another great story with Hazel and her crew. I did enjoy this book but I do have to say that Hazel’s attitude was over the top. It’s understandable that she is feeling off due to finding out she does have powers but I’m hoping she matures a bit in the next book. There is not much steam in this book, hopefully she will move forward with her pseudo-relationships with Ace and River. Secrets about her past have now come to light and the action is well paced in this book. Looking forward to seeing how everything moves forward now that so many hidden secrets have been revealed.

While this book picked up exactly where we left off. It just didn’t have that Saale quick paced plot as it’s previous. It definitely didn’t have that sassy female MC I fell in-tune with from the start.
Information dumping if how I could describe this book. I’m not even sure I’ll read the next in it’s series unfortunately. I just was not connected at all. What a shame. -
Just keeps getting better
Yes we have another witch who has no clue, but she's going to go down figting rather than acknowledge it.. At some point you think parents are gonna start. Learning that binding their children just doesn't seem to do what they think it's gonna do... Win or Lose? -
Every Maya Daniels book is a delight to read and this one was no different. It holds a lot of tension building in its storyline and the great characters that we love from the other books. I enjoyed this book.
-
Be careful what you wish for. That is something Hazel needs to remember. This book is full of battles, earth shattering revelations and the usual betrayals. It was a fun read and I look forward to the series continuing.
-
I was really disappointed with this one. The MC was very annoying and over the top with her bitchiness . The stars are just because I like River and her best friend. I found myself skimming her dialogues when she starts talking. Hope the next book will be better
-
This book kept me wanting more. Every time I had to put it down, it was very difficult to do so. I was even late coming back from break, when i was at work. Lol The ending of this book had me screaming.

Great Book
The woman born from a long and strong line of witches is about to find out a lot of things about herself. She had no witchy powers until she accidentally blows up the library at the coven house. Now she has unusual and uncontrolled magic. And enemies are still out to get her. It breaks my heart how much she has been lied to and belittled just to hide secrets. This witch is not going to take it anymore. -
I'm getting tired of her being contrary just for the sake of it and causing irreversible damage... Well, let's hope book 3 is going to be where she grows up even a bit 🙄
-
Hazel goes in guns balzing. The Shifters are brilliant and a shopping spree brings trouble galore. Throw in a cliff hanger, Sissley, and the gang and I can't wait for the next book!

Hazel is very annoying
