I can not get enough of these books. It seems like i just start reading and before i know it im done. Its like i can’t put them down until I’m at the end. Good work.
Character development is good and the story is well paced
It has a few twists that I didn’t see coming. Fun story.
I’m on the last book in this series. If you like fun cozy mysteries, you’ll love this series. I planned to read only the first book, because it was free or a low price, I forget, but it led into the next and I needed questions answered. Lo and behold, I’m on the last book. Sometimes I get annoyed when a book ends and makes you need to read the next one in the series, but this set was inexpensive and well-worth the read so I didn’t mind. Not sure if the author plans to write more on this series but I hope so; when I find one I love, I hate to see it end.
It was such a pleasure reading a “clean” book for pure entertainment. Thank you, MZ Andrews!
If you love witches than this book is just for you. It’s about a group of young witches who are going to which school. They solve murders and have fun at the same time. They are learning how to have boyfriends and to be good friends.
Excellent light reading series. Engaging characters and story lines, but not heavy enough to bog down a quick read.
I stumbled across this series while I had the flu. It was the perfect lighthearted read curled up on the couch with my tissues and tea! The characters became alive for me and the love, laughter, frustration and fighting that wrapped around the murder mystery’s in each book was well done. I was sorry to see the series end and hope there will be more in the future.
Love it. Went on to the rest of the series.
A really fun first year college angst novel of paranormal girls and how they solved a murder. It was very fun to read and the characters are extremely likeable.
