Cumberland magic refers to the myth and folklore surrounding the English county of Cumberland, located in the historic region of Cumbria. Known for its wild and rugged landscapes, Cumberland has long been associated with enchantment, mystery, and supernatural occurrences. One of the most famous aspects of Cumberland magic is the legend of the Fairy Boy of Egremont. According to the tale, a nobleman encountered a strange boy while hunting in the forests around Egremont Castle. The boy, who was believed to be a fairy or a changeling, possessed the ability to grant wishes. However, he warned the nobleman that he must never mention God or religion while making his wish, for if he did, the boy would disappear forever.

1. Jane - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "Cumberland Magic". The plot felt scattered and confused, and the characters were one-dimensional and lacked depth. The writing style was also quite dry and unengaging, making it difficult to connect with the story. Overall, I found it to be a forgettable read that didn't live up to the hype.

2. Mark - 2/5 stars - "Cumberland Magic" was a letdown for me. The pacing was incredibly slow, and the story seemed to drag on without any real direction. I found myself losing interest and struggling to finish the book. The descriptions were excessive and overly detailed, which only added to the monotony. I had high hopes for this novel but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations.

3. Sarah - 1/5 stars - I could not get into "Cumberland Magic" at all. The writing was convoluted and lacked clarity, making it difficult to follow the storyline.

Overall, it was a complete disappointment and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
