The Witches of Santa Anna Series by Laura Barnholdt

 Goodreads Summary of Claimed: Natalia Moore is the new girl at Santa Anna Prep, and all she wants to do is fly under the radar -- get to her classes, meet a few friends, and try not to make a total fool of herself in the meantime. But when handsome and popular Campbell Elliot goes out of his way to be nice to the new girl, Natalia's plan to go unnoticed flies out the window.

Cam’s hot, but he’s completely off-limits. Raine Marsden, the most popular and meanest girl in school, has had her eye on him ever since the summer. And Raine doesn’t like competition.

When Cam goes as far as inviting Natalia to the exclusive weekend party at Raine's house, Raine sets her sights on a new victim. But what Natalia doesn't know is that Raine and her friends are no ordinary mean girls. They have powers most people can only dream of, and nobody will stand in the way of what they want. And what Raine
 wants is Campbell.

Claimed, the first book in The Witches of Santa Anna series of novellas, proves just how far true love will go and that nothing--not even pure evil--can change your destiny...

My Review: This is a series of 9 short stories or novellas that are only available in ebook form I believe. I’m going to do one review for the series rather than breaking it up per story.

#1 – Claimed
#2 – Tricked
#3 – Rumored
#4 – Hushed
#5 – Pursued
#6 – Enticed
#7 – Ruined
#8 – Denial
#9 – Suspicion

Reading these stories was actually kind of interesting because each almost reads like a chapter in a book. I read all 9 stories in an afternoon. I wasn’t on the edge of my seat reading them but it definitely kept my interest enough for me to read straight through all of them. Each installment had its own twists and turns and I really liked the butterly aspect of each. Suspicion ends with a lot of unanswered questions so I’m thinking the story will go on. I know I will be reading any new novellas that come out!

I also really like some of the covers! I included a couple of my favorites in this post.

-  -  -

#10 - Isolation
#11 - Paranoia
#12 - Fear
#13 - Oblivion
#14 - Forgotten
#15 - Broken
#16 - Stolen
#17 - Taken
#18 - Risen
#19 - Given


I haven't had a chance to read 10 - 19 yet, but thought I would include them here.

  1. I read the first 7 through kindle, now I can not find the others on it. I see its on Nook but for some reason kindle doesn't have them. I did a review for the first 7, it felt to weird to do one for each since they are so short. I was really enjoying them and kinda irritated I can't finish all of them. I read these all while flying. I hate flying and they did keep my interest.

  3. Hi Amber, I heard that the last two aren't available on the Kindle. I think that's a bit odd. Sorry you don't like flying, but it's good that you can distract yourself by reading! I'm just opposite...I love flying so my eyes are glued out the window and can't bring myself to read.

    Hi Wall-to-Wall - I didn't tell you? I'm psychic. Lol, just kidding. It's more like the saying 'great minds think alike' :-)

  12. WILL SOMEONE PUH-LESE TELL MEH WEN SEASON 3 OF THIS SERIES IS COMING OUT IVE BEEN WAITS FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS THX!!!!

  13. Amazon still hasn't listed a 'season 3' but I think some of the books in that season are already published.

    Books 8-13 are considered Season 2 on Amazon and it seems like there's six or seven books per season. My guess would be that they will publish the third season after book #19...and #17 was just published in January so hopefully you don't have to wait too much longer.

    That's just a guess though!

  18. I just finished season 2 last night, but I refuse to pay $3 for books 14-19, because I know that is a total of 5 chapters for $15. But I am excited for Season 3 to come out. If you guys learn a release date before I do--PLEASE SHARE! <3

  22. I have searched everywhere as well and still no book 20. The last one was published May 2012, and she was popping them out about every month. Now its' been almost a year, so does that mean no more to come?

    ReplyDelete

  24. Haha. I honestly haven't been keeping up with these but I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that she'll release something soon :)

  25. So... since it's been SOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO long, is there no other follow up books? I mean, they were outrageously priced anyway, at $2.99 for each "chapter" in the series, but they were still enjoyed by many. And then to just be let down for 2 +/- years is just ridiculous. I was going to go ahead and purchase the books since I was already that far into the series, but not if there is never going to be a conclusion and if they keep being ridiculously priced. And for as long as it's taken, why didn't they just write a complete novel and be done with it? Makes no sense on any level.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Yeah, as far as I know nothing has been published after #19. At this point I wouldn't hold my breath for any more in the series but one never knows.
