Never argue with a talking cat...you won't win
Being a wizard, Lily Singer likes her magic logical and systematic. So when her cat suddenly starts opening locked doors and telling her what to do, she is not pleased. But before she can deal with her errant feline, her witch friend Sebastian warns of a heist plot at the very museum she was just hired to ward.
Lily must lay a trap for the would-be thief and figure out why Sebastian is suddenly acting so suspicious, all while wrangling her newly magical cat. To make matters worse, a mysterious wizard waltzes into her life claiming to know the truth about her past, and Lily must decide who, amid all the chaos, she can trust. Will discovering the past reveal her future? Or doom it?
With 400+ five star ratings on Amazon and Goodreads and over 50,000 copies downloaded, this urban fantasy series full of adventure and snarky humor is guaranteed to cause loud snorts of laughter, tea cravings, and sleep loss. Don't start reading at night or you'll never go to bed! Great for fans of urban fantasy from Harry Potter to Harry Dresden. Grab Book 2: Revelations, and discover the truth, if you dare.

I loved this second book in the Lily Singer Adventures. The main character is a feisty librarian who spends her day seeming a bit prim and proper, but when her friend Sebastian is involved you see her caught up in some crazy adventures. Oh did I mention she's not just a boring librarian, she's a witch who at night is still working on her training. Sherrer has come up with a great magic system for her world, instead of falling back on what has become a traditional method a la J.K. Rowling. Lily is engaging and I felt that I didn't want to put the book down because I was dying to know what happened. Sebastian is a bit of a bad boy and he seems to be the one who keeps dragging Lily into the problems he causes. ( )

**This book was reviewed for Lola’s Blog Tours**

Revelations is the second book featuring archivist wizard Lily Singer and mercenary witch Sebastian Blackwell. As with the previous book, this one is separated into three parts alternating between the two characters. During the first part, Lily gets a surprise new companion, and must team up with Sebastian and some new allies in order to preserve a special magical tablet from being stolen. The middle story follows Sebastian as he hunts for the client who contracted to have the tablet stolen. The final part returns to Lily's perspective as she manages to end up the 'guest’ of some rather frightening people. The repercussions of this visit will be life-shattering for more than one person. Healings between estranged people end the story on a much happier note.

Revelations is a laugh-riot of sarcastic fun cloaking serious questions of power, its proper use, and its abuse. We learn more of Sebastian's past, just enough to make one go 'Gaaahhhh!’ for wanting to know more. It's a tease really. We also learn a fair amount more of Lily's past, and finally get to meet her ma (who kicks ass by the way). I loved the greater inclusion of Sir Kipling, whose responses kept calling to mind the tale of The Cat Who Walks Alone, a Kipling tale I belatedly realised. 'I am Cat, and I walk alone, and all roads are open to me’. Lily reached the same conclusion regarding Sir Kipling that my family has regarding our own cats- they can teleport…

I felt the writing improved between one book and the next, and I look forward to future installations in the series!

📚📚📚📚📚 Highly recommended ( )
