Overall, I enjoyed this book. Most parts were good, some parts were great, some parts were not so good (translation: so bad I ended up skimming and skipping a page or two).
First off, what happened to the Wisty in the first three books? She was a lot less...girly. Then she's ready to faint the second a cute boy shows up. From the beginning, I knew Heath was too... PERFECT to be true.
Second, I admire James Patterson's character interconnections, which I did not see coming, although I probably should've) and that got this book another star (well that and his good writing style). But Patterson's attempt at romance was feeble to say the least.
Parts of The Kiss I loved to death, others made me want to hide the book in the back of my shelf and make it think about what it has done. So, I say 4 stars are accurate.
Oh yeah! One more thing. This book leaves the series with a good, solid ending. If James Patterson comes out with a fifth book, I will walk to his house and sit him in a corner so that he can rethink his motives once more. A fifth book is unnecessary, and I think it would be an insult to everything that has been created in the first three books. The Kiss leaves this series straddling the thin line between perfect and way overdoing it.

THE KISS, which is the fourth book in the WITCH & WIZARD series is everything I wanted it to be and so much more. I wasn't sure how they would add more conflict, how the series could continue to draw me in, but they did and it did. This book is where the plot thickens. Everything is going haywire, and I loved it. The introduction of new characters(bad people to add to the conflict) took this book where it needed to be. Oh, and that ending, that traitor, I didn't see it coming Whit and Wisty had their work cut out for them, and I can't wait to see where it leads. .
What I Liked About It:
*the new characters
*increased conflict
*the twists and turns
*how everything started adding up
*the hero aspect

I kinda wish they left off with The Gift. This was fine though I guess.

To me this book changed way too much. The first ones give the impression these were regular kids in the regular world, who just learned they are witch and wizard. Now there is the desert, and the mountain, and this city seems to be the only real city around. Suddenly we are in a whole new world, not akin to ours at all. Very disappointed.
