I enjoyed this a lot. The subplot of how Katie starts to realize she is a hereditary Witch veered dangerously close to pop culture silliness, but mostly stayed true to how it feels to recognize one's calling to the Craft.

That is, it was not so obnoxious or sensational that I was annoyed. In fact, I liked Ms. Cates' treatment of the subject, although the male Witch character was a little, umm.. much.

Still though, it was an interesting plot, good characterizations, and, as a fan of Savannah, a very enjoyable entertainment. Looking forward to checking out the next one. ( )

I though this book was cute cozy baking mystery with a magic twist. I also just like hoe this story developed. It was a super quick read and one that read in about a day. I also really liked how this show was set u and had a more mgaical spin. I also liked how the mystery was harder to predict but it was a fun read and hope to keep reading this series soon. It reminded me a bit of love sugar magic!! Very fun read!! ( )

I'm probably not the best person to review this book. I don't usually read cozies, but a friend pressed this series upon me, so I here I go.

I liked the bakery and the scenes about baking, probably because I like to bake myself.

The characters were all very flat, there were a lot of them, and I had trouble remembering who was who.

The spell book club/coven was...meh. It would have been more interesting if Katie had shown an interest in learning spellcraft and the associated spirituality instead of just inheriting her power.

The story is set in Savannah but I didn't get a sense of that place at all, and I think only two of the many characters were Black.

The love triangle...ugh. So tropey.

There was both a lot going on, and not enough. Too many story elements that were only explored on the surface. ( )

Very similar in style to Juliet Blackwell's Witch series, it's a nice mix of mystery, a woman learning a whole new side of herself, an eclectic group of supporting characters, two hunky men (one a hero, the other a mysterious witch), and a glimpse into the world of running a store. An easy and satisfying read. ( )
