FAQs ABOUT THE SERIES:
Q. Is this one of those incomplete books that ends on a big CLIFFHANGER?

As with most series books, there are some ongoing side plot lines that continue through the series. The end of each book contains hints about upcoming stories, but each title in the series can be read as a complete stand-alone.

A. The “heat level” is sweet, and the language is clean, making this a great read suitable for all ages and tastes.
Q. How long are the books?
A. The paperbacks are about 300 pages, and the audiobooks are 8 to 10 hours.
Q. Are these books dark and depressing, or upbeat?
A. Definitely upbeat. There are some dramatic elements to keep things interesting, but the tone is overall bright and cheerful, with plenty of humor. Readers report high levels of LOLs.

Fun easy read
Great October Halloween Book, light reading for a few! Just some far fetched enjoyment.
Quite entertaining, though definitely aimed st tweens.
An entertaining storyline for a Halloween read.
Great book could not stop reading enjoyed very much
It was a fun read
I really enjoyed this story. The characters are such fun and work well together. I can’t wait to read more in this series. I am glad to see there are several more for me to savor.
Cute story about an enchanted town and the people that live in it. The story is entertaining, but the main character seems very immature for someone in her 30s.
Kind of weird. Not very interesting.
Too woo-woo
I didn’t care for this at all.
I thought this was an all-around fun read. I enjoyed all the Riddle women. And Grandpa Don dialogue is hilarious! Left me with plenty of questions to look forward to the next in the series
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started this book but I had to find out who the killer was and how they did it. I love the humor. The relationship between mother and daughter normal, mostly. The neighbors are strange! The town sounds like fun!
I hated the main character so much I couldn’t finish the book. I think the author was going for quirky but she just felt jarringly inept instead.
Otherwise, the other characters were well written and just needed to be fleshed out a little bit. I might have liked to read more about the town and the other characters, but I just couldn’t get past the main character.
Love the characters and their humor and wittiness
Nice read. Interesting story. No sexual situations. Very nice read. Great for young minds.
love the book…
Great family dynamic between mother and daughter. Fun series, fun book. Also good in audio.
I am a 73 year-old man, still working full time, and I throughly enjoyed every one and I have read them all. Hope they keep coming.
After I read my first Wisteria book I kept on until I had read them all. I am now anxiously awaiting the next installment.
