Thoughts:
I'm a huge fan of Snyder's Study trilogy, so when I heard about Touch of Power I was beyond excited. Full of magic, adventure and a spell binding romance you wont be able to put this book down!
Overall, Touch of Power was an enjoyable read and I look forward to picking up the sequel.

Loved this book! While it doesn't live up to my EPIC love of the Poison Study series (my favourite of Snyder's book series) but it follows it close behind. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I had almost exactly the same thoughts on this book! :) Loved the lilies as well. that was something I wanted to know more of. Hopefully next book will come out soon enough.
I can't wait to get this book, I adore Snyder. :D
So jealous you've read it already.
Excited!
Glad you enjoyed it!! It's always the best to start a new series by a favourite author and fall in love with the new book as well.
