The third book on the Twin Willows Trilogy written by Nicole Maggi takes place in the cozy town of Twin Willows and is narrated by the characters Alyssia and Bree. This book follows the struggle between the two races, Benandanti and Malandantia, or better know as good and evil. These shapeshifters have been fighting a battle for centuries to protect and take over various sacred sites located all over the world. Read it to see what happens in the end. Will evil prevail against good? Will Alyssia and Jonah, the starcrossed lovers, be able to break the rift between the species? 

Opinion: 

I couldn't put this book down! It was very well written. While usually I detest the use of more than one character narrating a story, I loved the parallel view on the same issues going on. Overall this was a great read and is entertaining for all age groups above twelve or thirteen years of age. If you enjoy this reading selection make sure to check out other books in the fantasy genre such as Nightshade by Andrea Cremer, Shape Shifter's Secret by Heather Ostler, and Tiger's Curse by Colleen Houch.

Content Rating:

Content rating - some mature content

Explain your content rating: 

The reference to intimacy and the suggestive scenes such as the school and the isolated cabin proved to be a little too mature for younger kids.
