This is no boring librarian shushing people from behind a desk. This librarian corrals rogue magic. But more importantly, she has a frog and a cat, and she’s not afraid to use them!I knew when I woke up with a migraine that things were going to get interesting. As a magical artifact wrangler, it’s not an unusual way to start my day. But I had no idea how bad it was going to get. Until I found a … going to get.
Until I found a frog sitting in my teacup.
Even that, I could explain to myself if I had to. After all, I have a creative mind. But when the frog started talking to me, yeah, I was pretty sure I’d taken the wrong kind of pill that morning for my headache.
If only I’d realized then what I know now. The talking frog was just the beginning of my problems. And quite a beginning it was!

This is the most hilarious, awesome, and intriguing book yet and I love the author and everything I have read so far that she writes. As this is book one, there are more, YAY!!!! Fun, great characters, twisting plot/mystery. Perfect read!

Naida is the Keeper of Artifacts, keeping dangerous magical objects out of the supernormal community. , The evil (mostly) Qilleran witches are after her familiar, Mr. Wicked, and will do anything to get him. Along with her witch friends, her sprite assistant and the fae nation, Naida and Mr. Wicked keep everyone safe from dark magic. I received an advance copy of this book and voluntarily left a review.
A different witch story.
How is a keeper of artifacts with limited magic ability protecting artifacts? I loved the characters and the flow of the story. It was hard to put it down I mean what is the cat and frog going to do? The author has a wonderful imagination just the names of the characters were a hoot. I love the book and highly recommend this mystery. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.
Fun and Funny Supernatural Cozy
Sam Cheever has done it again! This book is laugh-out-loud funny while being a great story. While the library of magical artifacts is very similar to ‘The Librarians’ the story is unique. This ‘first of series’ book steps a little into ‘Reluctant Familiars’ territory and shares some characters. I enjoyed the story and can’t wait for book 2.
I received this ARC book for free from Booksprouts and this is my honest review.
This book is amazing. It is so detailed and descriptive that it paints a vivid picture that you can see the magical world clearly in your mind.
Characters are wonderful and interesting. I love the complexity of the characters and the magical world. I love Mr. Wicked! The book is exciting, suspenseful, humorous and mysterious.
Tea and Croakies is a wonderful start of a new series. I can’t wait for the next book!
Naida is witch with limited magic, she is also keeper of artifacts. She has a sprite Sebille for an assistant for the shop. She gets bad migraines when there is magically artifact is acting up. She gets a horrible migraine right before a magical book and frog show up at her shop Croakies. While she tries to figure out why the book and frog are in here magical library, a set of bad witches show up, the Quillerans.
Naida, her cat Mr.Wicked and her friends try to saves lives and solve the problem of an magical artifact that is out there in the wrong hands. Will Naida be able to locate the artifact in time, will anyone lose there life, will she be able to defeat the Quillerans to keep Mr. Wicked and everyone safe.
This in an interesting beginning to series, can not wait to see where the author goes with the story. Would like to see what happens next for Naida, Sebille and all others. Nice pace of action, no romance as of yet.
Thank you for the honor of being able to read a beta version.
Very basic: need to rescue magical artifacts, Have tools that may help but new in job. Have nemesis that will be problem. Has ‘good”‘ relationship with other magical beings because she shows respect?
If you like the Librarians or the snarky Charley Davidson, then you will love this new series. Artifacts that go on and on. It will surprise you what is an artifact. It did me. She is so Charley, and others rolled into one. Shirley, really?
I love Mr. Wicked. Can he come purr on my lap, please?
This witch world is so different. I need a prequel or a “world” synopsis on how she became a Keeper and what her capabilities are. That will probably be revealed in future books. Darn Now I have to wait. GRR.
Already used troll flip-flops in our world. Reminds me of stuff like “unicorn swirls” by another authors. Just so many of them. Can someone keep a running tab of them all, lol. Read the story if wondering what I am talking about.
I asked to read this book because her newsletter introduction reminded me of another author that I love to read (but never have done an ARC for that author). I could not wait to read it. Started as soon as I got it. Have to Usher the next two days and will be telling all interested to read it.
Tried too stay awake to finish it. My head kept doing the doggie head bobbing thingy. I did NOT want to put I down . Sleep claimed me unfortunately, (disability) lol.
This is my honest and freely given review. I did receive a Beta copy. (Beta is before the ARC, so has typos, etc., errors , possibly. I read for content and send what I find to author.)
