This nook tries to be many things for many audiences, but winds up failing across the board, sadly. Astute readers will realize there's trouble afoot when the cover blurb says "Where the socialites are witches" as opposed to "Where the socialites are REAL witches." Subtle, but big, difference. The book itself wants to be Sex & The City meets Anne Rice. Sadly, it's neither sexy nor scary enough to succeed on either level.
