The Arrival (BirthRight Trilogy #1) 
In Wellington, New Zealand, four friends cast a love spell unaware that within each of them a dormant power waits. As the final words ‘So mote it be’ ring from the lips of Kassandra, Catherine, Sian, and Laura, a bridge between realms is formed.
The Arrival is a story of love, hope, despair, and above all, determination. Only through strength of spirit and mind can the four women hope to survive a war where they are the ultimate weapons AND the ultimate prize.
This is such a bumpy read to be considered a good read. I want to make it clear, though, that the plot is not bad, but there are aspects of the book that didn't help earn stars for this review. My major frustrations: 1: The different points of view-- this book by far has the most rapid shifting points of view I've ever encountered, so much so that it swings around to the next before I could even grasp whose thoughts I am into. The quick succession of POV shifts is literally confusing. A first
Great read, kept me wanting more from the first page to the last page, would definitely recommend.

I have never read a book that didn't have a grammatical error. A misspelt word here or a comma instead of a fullstop there. A good book will take you beyond that to another world or time, and this book does that. Thank you Nicole, for taking me to a different dimension for a few days. I can't wait to see what happens next.
This was one of my very first books I ever read in ebook format. I loved it so much I could not stop reading. The girls held their own for being thrown into a whole new world with crazy exotic deadly creatures. There was love, excitement, thrills and adventure... This book was so awesome. Everyone should take a chance on it and read it. You won't be disappointed
I read this book at the end of March (2017). I mean to review it much earlier, but life kind of got in the way. This book reached out and grabbed me and I found I didn't want to put it down
An Amazon freebie, I wasn't certain what to expect. While I enjoyed the storyline, the cliffhanger end drove me crazy. As others have mentioned, it's rather disjointed in that the POV changes. Constantly. Without warning. Sometimes within a single paragraph.It's a bit like being in the mind of a schizophrenic. Despite this, the overall story is enjoyable. It's a fun read if you don't get too caught up in trying to separate the various POVs as you're reading. I lowered the the rating to reflect

Two Stars: BECAUSE IF IT WAS FORMATTED PROPERLY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY GOOD!I'm going to be honest here and state: I have a BA in English Literature with a minor in Creative Writing. I also plan on attending an MFA program in Creative Writing -- particularly specializing in young adult. So, please keep this in mind as you read my review.First off: DO NOT RE-INVENT THE WHEEL. The author has put warnings all over her book (which I found out later) due to the fact that she was getting poorThis is such a bumpy read to be considered a good read.
