Becoming Crone Becoming Crone

Publisher Description

She's sixty years old and destined to save the world … just as soon as she finds her reading glasses.

Divorce has already turned Claire Emerson's tidy, predictable life upside down. So when her sixtieth birthday brings a cranky gargoyle, an annoyingly sexy wolf shifter, and an unknown magical calling, she thinks she's losing the only thing she has left: her sanity.

Because menopausal grandmothers with creaky hips don't just randomly discover they're next in a long line of powerful women protecting the world from dark Mages. Until those Mages attack.

But when Claire tries to fight back, her brand new magick proves to be as unpredictable as her hot flashes. Clearly, if she's going to save the world–never mind her own life–she'll have to learn to step into her power first. Whatever that means.

Greatly Enjoyed

As a woman over 70 years of age and a big fan of Urban Fantasy, I found this series of books enjoyable. The main character must accept her own inner strength and realize her true potential to step into the power that has been delivered to her doorstep. She begins to see all the limitations she has experienced thus far in her life were a result of putting the needs of others first, not listening to her own inner voice. All she thought to be true unravels, one thread at a time. As she takes one courageous step after another, a frightening new world filled with danger, suspense and possibilities unfolds.

Beginning of great series

Great beginning to a series. I love that the protagonist just turned 60 and is learning to be a witch…but, also has a family, and the baggage that comes with being a divorcee and a family that cares a bit too much about her well being. Highly recommend.

Whiny protagonist

I wanted to love this book. It has everything I love. The magical world building and characters. And the most perfect thing is the main character is 60. Claire has been through a lot lately. As she has a birthday, she wonders if she will be alone the rest of her life and also thinks about her life. Then magick happens. Seems like I got to the halfway point quickly, yet nothing had really much happened. Mostly, the whole book is her whining and refusing to cooperate with everyone she has met in the new world. She insists on going back to her house. Well, just stay plain and boring and a mouse that lets people run over you. She even endangers the wolf shifter’s life. But no, she still doesn’t want to practice magic. And always when you are getting answers, it’s all shut down because no one will answer each other’s questions. It’s like pulling teeth out of a chicken. I may try the next one but for now I have lost patients.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this read.
