Excellent!
Any time that one is facing a trial is not a good time, but when one is a witch, the trouble factor is cubed, as Paige Winterbourne soon learns. Facing a custody challenge for the neophyte witch, Savannah, whom she has cared for during the last year, she turns to her coven for support; however, the old biddies are less than helpful. Gambling on using a human lawyer to fight magical opponents should have been a good risk, but it turned out to be a deadly one for the human after he wins the first round. That is when Cortez appears, a very young sorcerer/ lawyer, looking to make a name for himself away from his Cabal. At first, Paige is reluctant to accept his help, but as her coven deserts her completely, the town makes her a pariah, and her enemies seem to hold all the good cards, she has no choice. When Savannah becomes a woman, officially, things go from bad to abysmal rapidly. As the dark side beckons, will Paige's love be strong enough to save Savannah from herself? ***** Without any doubt in my mind, I can say that Dime Store Magic is the best book in this series that has been excellent since Book I. Light humor makes the dramatic ending stand out in sharp contrast. Most laudable is the fact that each book in this series stands alone and complete, so that you can enter it at any point; and though are eager for the next book, readers are not left dangling in mid air. *****

fun fun fun
Moving right along in the Women of the Otherworld series brings me to Dime Store Magic. This may be my favorite in the series thus far. There's Cabals and Covens, spells and sorcery, walking dead and ghostly spirits....pretty much everything supernatural you could want in a novel.
This book has a change in main characters from the previous two. In Dime Store Magic, Paige and her young witch ward Savannah take center stage. These two witches team up with a very dashing and gallant young sorcerer lawyer named Lucas Cortez to try to fight a powerful Cabal bent on taking Savannah. There is lots of great action, a little light romance and plenty of spell casting. As always Kelley Armstrong's wit, humor and sharp dialogue make for a very fun read.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

LOVED IT! MUST READ!
Women of the Otherworld is one of my favorite series, Kelley Armstrong is by far one of my favorite authors! Coming in second to the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice.
Kelley Armstrongs writing style is flawless. Her stories flow from start to end. I've read allot of the "newer" supernatural authors, Kelley Armstrong is probably one of the best. The entire series is GREAT!
Dime Store Magic and No Humans Involved are probably my two favorite books in this series.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

Good Read
This story picks up where Stolen left off, only with a different narrator, but you've met her.

Incredibly Impressed
I had done studies about the Salem Trials back in high school and was seriously impressed with Kelley Armstrong's ability to weave accurate historical facts into her incredibly riveting storyline. Definitely worth a double thumbs up.

Give it up for Paige and Lucas
I have to admit that when I picked up the story, I was hoping for a continuation of Clay and Elena's story. Quite frankly Paige annoyed me during Stolen so I was kind of reluctant to read it. I'm glad I decided to give it a chance. In this third install of Kelley Armstrong's series, we get a closer look at Paige's story line and her involvement with the Sorceror Lucus Cortez. It was a great story line and these are a great couple!

One of My Favorite Novels in a Favorite Series
Dime Store Magic was my introduction to Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series. I didn't feel lost even though I hadn't read the two previous books, Bitten and Stolen, although obviously if you stop here you'll encounter spoilers for both books. This book and the next which deal with Paige Winterbourne and Luis Cortes are my favorites--maybe because of early imprinting, granted, but those two are my favorite chararcters in the series, and I prefer them to the central couple in the first book. I enjoyed seeing the action from Paige's point of view--I prefer her voice to many of the smart ass female first person voices in urban fantasy. I liked the supernatural world Armstrong created here in this series and this one is a great read with an engaging heroine.

Dime Store Magic
I really like Kelley Armstrong's women of the otherworld series. I like that every couple of books is written from a different character's perspective. This one is from Paige's perspective. I would suggest the series to any paranormal fan.

Kelley Armstrong's 'Dime Store Magic'
'Dime Store Magic' is the third book of the 'Women of the Otherworld series'. This book is different from her past two. 'Dime Store Magic' is a book that could stand alone if it had to. The plot is great. The characters are fantastic. As always, the action and romance are a perfect blend.

E.D., a book lover
This was a very good book. Paige is a character that one can easily like. The storyline is fantastic, and the mix between cabal heir and witch is a wonderful twist. I loved this book, but the ending didn't ensnare me quite as the rest of the book did.

WOW!!!
I loved this book! I finished it within 24 hours. I couldn't put it down. I'm a fan of Anne Rice, but I have to say that Kelley Armstrong is way better. I got bored after the Vampire Lestat. I'm not getting bored of this series. Unfortunately, I'm running out of her books to read. I can't get enough! I felt sympathy for Paige and Savannah, probably because she's closer to my age.
