Talking to the dead isn’t as cool as it sounds… a strange amulet strike, she questions her resolve.
Especially when one happens to be an innocent-looking little girl.
Unable to turn her back on the little girl, Ridley taps into the other side for answers. What she learns is more than even a girl who can walk between both worlds can handle—if she wants to help anyone, Ridley will have to go against the biggest evil she’s ever encountered.

Ridley is a witch and lives in Mirror Lake. She is still learning her magic and spells. Her crippling headaches are caused by someone from the other side who wants her attention. Benjie is her newly turned vampire boyfriend. Can they defeat the danger coming their way? Great story and looking forward to the next one
Delightful tale. Ridley is a young witch coming into her powers: very much an inexperienced teenager. Nonetheless, she is willing to face the evil bad guy because it’s the right thing to do. Friends and family play important parts in her life. I just wish that she was strong enough to seek out their help rather than seemingly thinking of them as burdens or liabilities But then I guess that might be part of the “Coming of Age” nature to the story. Plenty of other interesting characters make appearances throughout the story. I look forward to seeing all of them grow in depth as the story unwinds. I hope that you enjoy the story as much as I did.
I received a copy of this book as a gift. This is my honest review.
Gray Magic by Jennifer Snyder a five-star read that will leave no gray areas. This is the first novel in the Mirror Lake Witches series, Ridley Caraway was a great character, we have met her in the Mirror Lake Wolves series but this series we get to see the real her, who she is and what gives her the headaches and the background to the attic room. This story tells us so much, but also keeps some stories hidden behind the curtain, you get the peek but have to wait for the next story to tell us more. I think that’s why I like Jennifer Snyder’s writing so much, its not all laid on a plate you have to read between the lines, and it keeps you hooked. I can’t wait for the next read in the Mirror Lake Witches series, it’s a crazy place to live but a great place to visit.
***I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.***
This series is a spin off from The Mirror Lake Wolves which I absolutely loved! This spin off was alright. I was expecting to fall in love with the spin off series as much as I liked the Mirror Lake Wolves Series, but it fell short for me.
Ridley was not a character who I loved in Mirror Lake Wolves, but I didn’t dislike her. She was just there. I was expecting more from this book and to learn something new from Ridley.
Overall, this book was alright, but not something I would go back and re-read. I am hoping to learn more about Ridley in the next book in the series.
4 stars to Jennifer Snyder’s Gray Magic.
I received an ARC of this book for an honest review . This is the first book I have read from this author and I enjoyed it . Ridley is a witch who is also the anchor to the other side. This does not seem like much of a gift to her since she is always having horrible headaches . Benji is her boyfriend who just happens to be a new vampire . He wants to help Ridley in anyway he can . Ridley discovers Gray Magic which could be the answer she is looking for but it might come with consequences she ins’t ready to face. Maybe she should just face whatever is wanting thru , maybe this is what she was born to do . I do not wanna give to much away but she is about to face something she may not be prepared for . Can Mina her werewolf bestfriend , Benji, her vampire boyfriend , Ivette another vampire help her face an ultimate evil.
Okay so I thought this book was written well , and a great story line. The story has great characters and potential to be a major hit . My only issue with this story was the beginning . I felt like I was coming into the middle of a story . I had no idea what was going on for a little while. I am not a fan of this, however the author did fill us in on all the need to know . Also I love a good cliffy and this book gives good cliffhanger
This is a spin-off of the mirror lake wolf series. Our main heroine is 18 yr old Ridley and shes a witch. She likes practicing spells and using her magic skills but thats not her only powers. She is also an “Ancher” which is someone who can sense spirts or souls who are no longer living. Its a huge burden and tries to block them as much as she can but its a painful experience doin that. After struggling for a while she decides to give in and not block them anymore. The minute she does that everything changes. Time is ticking and she must find the girl the soul instructed before she is killed by an evil witch and vampire named Bram. Looks like Ridley is in for a roller coaster because Bram is just getting started!
