I honestly don’t know what went wrong with this book. I have to admit that I let the cover take me in and in all honesty, the idea of this book sounded amazing and just the kind of thing that I would love. Yet from the first page I was a little unsure. It just wasn’t what I was expecting at all. It was okay, but there were moments as I got further and further into the book where I wasn’t sure if I was just loosing interest with the story or the writing might have changed? I’m still not sure.

This is an enjoyable book about a young girl who is condemned by her mother to die at the age of 34, then to be reborn again. She lives four exciting lives. No spoilers! I liked it very much! Recommend!
I received an ARC of this book from Netgalley. Thank you, Netgalley!
All opinions are my own.

Very interesting story. Very complex with a lot of depth. It got a little slow in places for me and was a bit too long. Overall really enjoyed the characters and how the stories intertwined. It would have been easy for each story to have mirrored the one before it, but each timeline was very distinct. Would read more from Sayers again.

I enjoyed this book so much more than I expected. While the write up made it sound interesting, I’m always leery of a book that incorporates “for fans of...” in the description, particularly when the book(s) being compared are massively popular, such as Outlander.
The detailing and historic research on the earlier lives of the main character are well done. I found myself caring for several characters in the book. The historic settings were easy to visualize. A truly enjoyable read.

I requested this book because it was compared to "A Discovery of Witches" which I loved. However, this book can't compare. It had a lot of promise, but it just fell short for me. I couldn't get into this book. I didn't fall in love with it like I had hoped to. It was okay, but I probably wouldn't read it again.
I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy free of charge. This is my honest and unbiased opinion of it.

I was pumped for this based on the description. Past lives, romance, general witchiness - sounds like the perfect October read, yeah? I don't know what went wrong here, but I was not feeling it. I finished it but I didn't like it.

I LOVED this book...the plot, the authors style of writing, the historical and magical aspect, and the characters! I can’t say enough about A Witch In Time. It’s one of those books that once I began grabbed me from the first paragraph. I didn’t want to put it down and yet I didn’t want it to end.
Newly divorced Helen meets a blind date who already seems familiar to her, and he tells her they have met before in previous lives. Helen then starts to have vivid dreams with memories of a past life she comes to realize is her own. She began her first life in the late 1800’s in the French countryside as Juliet, a 15 year old girl who becomes the muse and lover of the painter Marchand. When her mother discovers Juliet’s pregnant she performs a powerful witches ritual which then kills her, Juliet loses the baby, and is sent to Paris to live with her administrator Luke, who exposes her to a new world of culture and way of life. But Juliet can only think of her love Marchand, and is devastated when he wants nothing to do with her.
Her next two lives are as Nora and Sandra, set in Hollywood in the 30’s and LA in 1970. With each life Juliet has, Marchand is in every one, as is Luke. The curse cast by her mother was so powerful she is doomed to loop lives that end too early.
The historic background of Paris, Hollywood and the music scene in LA is very meticulously detailed and adds an interesting backstory with each life.
Grab this book and carve time out of your day because you won’t put it down. I’d give it 10 stars if I could.

I simply do not like this, it felt to me like a cobbling of stories that I've read and if I'm going to read stories like that I'd rather read the original books.

I'm a huge fan of books with a supernatural theme and this one was done wonderfully. I really enjoyed the way the author intertwine the use of the various characters going back and forth Through Time with the main character and her various past lives. It worked very well for the plot and the character development was excellent. The main character, is bound to a demon for her entire life by a mother that was trying to save her back in the 19th century. Without going into too much detail we find that this demon comes to have feelings for the main character. I had a difficult time putting this book down and ended up completing it within 24 hours. I've already recommended reading it to four friends. I enjoyed the various locations and time periods of the past lives and just felt that the characters were excellently put together. Kudos to the author.
I would like to thank the author/publisher/Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for fair and honest review.
