A New Witch

This was my first experience with this author's work, and it was entertaining. I enjoyed the small-town setting. I liked Isobel Shadow, and I appreciated her struggle with her identity as a witch and with her uncertainty about her powers as a witch. I liked all the twists as the paranormal mystery was slowly revealed. There were several references to the previous story, so I would strongly recommend that the prequel be read first. I thought Paige Huntzberry's narration was great, and her performance enhanced my enjoyment of the story. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.

Easy to follow

I love that this story was easy to follow. It’s short and to the point.

An interesting mystery

The mystery in this was so good! I liked when they found out they were witches! The story of a murder and being witches made the story interesting. Paige did a really good job narrating this! I really enjoyed this audio book.

Great

A great start to a new paranormal cozy mystery series. Lots going on, so it feels like the book was a quick read. Looking forward to the next one.

I wanted to like it more

The story idea was very interesting. The different steps leading up to the conclusion were great. The writing was a little cheesy (one example: "Ah-ha" - really?). The narrator had a pleasant voice, and she would have been very good except most of the time, she sounded like she was reading rather than telling a story.

Wow!

The storyline was great and gave more history on the witches in town. I love Isobel and have been interested in her development ever since Murder in The Bookstore. The characters evolved more has the story went on. It was quite a lengthy tale and could have been a little shorter for me. Yet, I enjoyed the story telling the author has brought another witch tale to life.

Passable witchy mystery

We don't meet the victim before the inciting incident and Isobel has no connection to him or any suspects. She has anxiety about the general concept of murder, due to the previous book's events. This seems to be her only reason for taking an interest in the murder. Most events only seem to occur because the plot needs them to.

The narrator has a very youthful voice, better suited to middle grade or maybe young adult works. One character gets a slight English accent but otherwise everyone has the same voice. The audio quality itself is great.

Kept me guessing

Thank you so much! I truly enjoyed this listen. The story kept me interested but was a wonderful light listen. I enjoy knitting while I listen and I was capable of doing both and still enjoy the book!

Fantastic

I loved the way the past and present intertwined in this book. This was a thoroughly satisfying cozy mystery.

Good
