Divina Por Escolha

For my full review please visit my blog:From the Shadows I reviewNow for the first time in my blog's history I must star with an apology. My opinion on this books is very low and in order to get my main point across there will be a spoiler.So I'm going to start with my main point and I have to say I feel very strongly about this. Rhiannon's downfall is sickening, I mean this I felt physically sick as I read about Rhiannon as a teenage girl being raped by a man wearing a dead horse's head. I'm so [...]

I was drawn to this series because I adore Partholon. Unfortunately, this book takes place mostly back in Oklahoma. I found those scenes boring and tended to skim through most of that section.*SPOILER BELOW*I'm having a hard time understanding and accepting Shannon's reasoning for sleeping with Clint. She was only parted from Clanfinton for what 3 or 4 days? Seems her and Rhiannon have more in common than she would care to admit.Would I recommend? If you don't mind the setting in Oklahoma, try i [...]

Kitabın sonunda salya sümük ağladım desem yeridir. Uzun zamandır ilk defa bir kitap beni bu denli duygulandırdı. Ne diyebilirim ki, harika bir kitaptı. İlk kitaptan daha akıcı gitti bu. Belki de konuya adapte olduğum için bana öyle geldi, bilmiyorum. Tek şey var; sanırım bu benim favori serim olacak.

I didn’t love this one as much as the first ( Divine By Mistake ), but it is good. I didn’t like it because I don’t like the fact that she has sex with someone other than her husband. It kind of ruined the true love aspect of the book.

Loving this series!!! Right when I'm thinking nothing else is going to happen, what do you know, "It does"!! Cast is amazing!!I Love how effortless the story just flows!! I Love the mix of characters!! This is a steady and smooth read!!

What I learnt? Nothing. Just that PC Cast while funny in turn, is also ridiculously disney slapped.

This is MAYBE a 2.5 stars, if I'm being generous.I liked the first book (although I didn't love it) and I was expecting to like this one too but although I tried all I could think was "not again".This just felt like more of the same and *spoiler alert* if there's one thing I hate is when dead villains come back in the second book, I find it incredibly annoying. And the whole " falling in love for the guy that looks like her husband" was just ridículos to me.It's easy to read, which is good, the [...]

P.C. Cast has become one of my favorite authors lately. I love the Partholon adult novels that she is writing and truly feel the characters are real and believable. Unfortunately, Divine by Choice didn’t knock my socks off. No matter how much I wanted it to do so. Shannon is pulled back to Oklahoma through a divide in the trees. She quickly learns that all is not right in Oklahoma where her family and friends have been betrayed by Shannon’s look-alike Rhiannon. Something evil has been called [...]

This book picks up with Shannon/Rhea a few months after the last one. She has fully settled into her new world and her new role as the Beloved. With ClanFintan gone for a month cleaning up the mess from the war Rhea is on her own, with some new worries. The very night that ClanFintan comes home she makes a startling discovery that will bring great changes to her and the world around her.While on a ride with her horse, Epi, Rhea discovers trees that seem very much like those back home in OK. Whil [...]

Never has a fantasy world enthralled me as much as this one! (or at least not since i was a teen lol) When I read the first book I would wake up in the morning and my mind would immediately start wondering about Rhea and ClanFintan. I enjoyed it so so much! So when I finished it I was totally content with the ending. I then went to swop it with book 2 on my bookshelf. Did not intend to start reading it until at least the next day untilI READ THE BACK of the book which I hate doing when reading a [...]

Depois de ter lido o livro "Divina por engano" fiquei um pouco com o pé atrás devido à personagem principal.Quis ler este livro para conseguir perceber se havia (na minha opinião) melhorias relativamente a Shannon e não é que houve? Seis meses depois do término do livro "Divina por engano", Shannon Parker descobre que está grávida. Mas também descobre que Nuada não está tão morto como aparenta. Depois de ser sugada de volta para Oklahoma, Shannon tem de tomar a maior decisão da sua [...]

I loved the first Partholon book, "Divine by Mistake", so I was sure I would love the sequel.Sadly, it wasn't meant to be.There was something about the first book that made me want to keep on reading. This book lacks it. The talking to trees is O.K. I actually quite liked the talking to trees. And it was nice to get some back story for Rhinannon at last. And I got what I wanted, to see what Rhiannon had been up to in the U.S.A butEverything seems too easy for the heroine. And I don't understand [...]

I am caught between giving this either three or four stars. It was good but it was not amazing. I do love the writing style in these books- it's really simple and flows really well. It makes the books a pleasure to read. However, I didn't like the fact that I was over one hundred pages into the book before the events from the description began happening. I felt like I was spending too long waiting for the actual story to begin. Once back in her own world, I felt Shannon made a lot of questionabl [...]

The second in the Shannon/Rhiannon series by P.C. Cast. Picture ancient Scotland and mythological Greece, and you'll have a good idea of where Oklahoma schoolteacher Shannon Parker finds herself when a nasty divine entity switches places with her. Luckily, it turns out that was the Goddess's (who Rhiannon represented in their world) really wanted, as Shannon is the true "Beloved of Epona." Review: Still very good, a fascinating world/situation, though I wish this one happened more in the fantasy [...]

At this stage the series is still ok. Shannon is still in the mythical world and decides to play by the rules while she is there. She has a centaur husband, who is actually quite spectacular. He knows her story and loves her. However, I feel that I'm going to end up dropping a blah sooner or later.

No no no no no. I can't say it enough. This book was terrible. It actuay encourages adultery and even rape. Seriously, rape is ok if a goddess is making you do it?? Oh, and if you know your girlfriend is going to leave you to go back to her husband, its ok to kill yourself?? Wow, I', just not sure if I'll be reading anything else by this author. I was thoroughly disgusted!

This sequel to "Goddess By Mistake" was just as wonderful as the first book for me :) I really like this author and have already stocked my TBR shelf with a bunch of books by her.I think she is becoming one of my favorite authors right next to Sandra Brown, Audrey Niffenger, Alice Sebold, Stephenie Meyer, and Nora Roberts :)

Leí el libro sin leer la sinopsis porque bueno creí que eran diferentes diosas y este es el segundo pero de nuevo fue sobre Shannon creo que fue mas emocionante el primero y el punto que lo hizo mas malo fue Clint y su "mi niña" y aunque fue gracioso al principio se volvió irritante con forme mas lo decía.

Maybe I am a prude, but I just could not forgive her for cheating on her husband. Healing with sex I heard better excuses. :/

I'll tell you this, its worse than the first one. I mean its utter nonsense. I mean, what kind of goddess asks someone to sleep with another guy when she is pregnant with someone else's baby????

LOVED this book, was a great insight and history of Rhiannon!! Into Divine by Blood already, what a great series!

So sad, I really wasn't sure how it was going to end. Love is a tragic thing. Can't wait to get my hands on the next book.

P.C. Cast has outdone herself with this one. I can't wait to find out what will happen next.

Loving this series for once I agree with the actions of the main character and I can read along and simply enjoy the ride :)

I really liked this book. It kept my interest throughout and I am excited to read the next one.

And down, down, down, we go. Look, if you're a fan of the first book, I would highly suggest you to stay away from this book. Let's all assume the first book is the only canon ending. 😂 This book just took the first one and turned it a complete crap. Don't even waste your time. I'm really disappointed with the whole mirror image people being interchangeable. For instant, Shannon after being away for a few days from her husband, slept with her husband's mirror image, Clint as if it's nothing. [...]

DIVINE BY CHOICE by PC CastDivine by Choice is the second book in PC Cast’s Divine series. The continuing story of Shannon Parker and Clanfintan, but Divine by Choice returns Shannon to her own time period and the man who is the mirror image of her husband. Shannon Parker, aka the high priestess Lady Rhiannon to the people of Patholon, is sick. With an unexplained stomach ailment and her shape-shifting centaur husband away with his troops, Shannon fights a battle with lethargy, nausea and weig [...]

Depois de um primeiro livro muito peculiar, fiquei muito contente quando soube que o segundo volume da intitulada "Série Divina" seria lançado já durante este mês de Janeiro pois estava realmente curiosa para ler a continuação desta história - e, tal como já esperava, deparei-me com outro livro bem divertido!Este é um livro que, apesar de ser claramente distinto do anterior, mantém os mesmos ingredientes que o primeiro pois encontra-se repleto de aventura, mistério, humor, romance e m [...]

NOTE: Do NOT read this review unless you have read Devine by Mistake (Book 1) by PC Cast as this is the sequel.Also this is an ADULT read as there are some situations that certainly aren't YA or middle grade. I finished Devine By Choice in just two days. Again this was another reread for me. I think that's why I finished it so quickly because I could kind of remember what happened at the very end.The second book in the Parthenon series by PC Cast takes us back to Shannon Parker pretending to be [...]

Clan Fintan. The perfect protagonist and husband. This next book in the series is as compelling as the first. A must read for all PC Cast fans.
