Representaion Toward Books Divine By Mistake (Partholon #1)
The most excitement teacher Shannon Parker expected on her summer vacation was a little shopping. But then her latest purchase--a vase with the Celtic goddess Epona on it--somehow switches her into the world of Partholon, where she's treated like a goddess. A very temperamental goddess... It seems that Shannon has stepped into another's role as the Goddess Incarnate of Epona. And while it has some very appealing moments--what woman doesn't like a little pampering now and then?--it also comes with a ritual marriage to a centaur and the threat of war against the evil Fomorians. Oh, and everyone disliking her because they think she's her double. Somehow Shannon needs to figure out how to get back to Oklahoma without being killed, married to a horse or losing her mind... .

Having been a fan of P.C. and Kristen Casts House of Night series, I have to admit that I was a little apprehensive about trying out any of P.C. Casts other books. For the most part, I love the House of Night series would I feel the same way about her other books? While I do try to read many of my books in an objective format that allows me to see the good parts in each individual piece, I was afraid that if I became disenchanted with Casts adult books, it might ruin her young adult ones for meI didn't mind Cast's House Of Night series, thought it was a decent if very hot-headed take on the whole 'vampire finishing school' genre. (My suspicion is that they were originally 'just' witches, and the vampire element was added af ter the phenomenal success of..well, you-know-what. They were fun, silly and dragged you along in the best soap opera style. The 'Divine' books are another kettle of copycat fish altogether... I found myself dreading the beginning of each new chapter and the
What gets me about this book is the idea of it has the potential to be a really good story. The whole concept of it, what with the switching between modern day woman and Celtic goddess, is pretty good. However, I found this book incredibly boring. The writing style was alright, don't get me wrong, I thought the main protagonists voice was very witty and pacy although P.C Cast's stereotyping annoyed me somewhat like it had in her House of Night novels- not all Brits have bad teeth, okay? Also,
This book was frustrating. The premise and story was good. But the writing was... Well awful. Whilst it could be witty at times, most of the time it was childishly written and grammatically poor. Honestly I don't know how it got published. With P. C Cast co-writing House of Night, I can see why that series is just as appalling. Honestly she wasn't very imaginative in creating differences in the two series.Anyway back to this monstrosity. Like I said, the story was interesting and was the main

Star rating- 4.8After reading 'The House of Night' series, I was already a big fan of PC Cast.I was intrigued to see how PC Cast's novels would appear without her daughter writing alongside her and after reading the synopsis of this noel I was very interested in what was going to take place in this book.This novel, is about a thirty five year old English teacher that has been taken out of Tulsa and replaced with the identical queen of a fantasy universe. Though the plot may sound childish that
Really wasnt my cup of tea. Time travel/alternate universe travel romance is a genre I struggle with generally. Usually its the oh my gawd! I totally wish I had my iPod! What? You dont have iPods in medieval/alternate Europe? But like, how do you just let loose and gyrate around? Youd understand if you were as sexy as I am... And why does every swap have to be initiated by some woman trying to get out of a wedding/mating/whatever?Argh! So this is probably an unfair review, because I seem to be
