As Witch Would Have It
As Witch Would Have It | Mara Webb
2 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
Chelsea Moon has had better days. Weeks. Months. Years. When real life gets too hard Chelsea decides to fly back to Pendle Island, a place she has not been since she was born. She's looking forward to a vacation, but when she arrives, she's quickly thrown into mayhem. Her Great Aunt Griselda has died, and Chelsea is needed at the funeral. She's barely halfway through a stack of breakfast pancakes when her cousin Lizzy drops another bombshell. Chelsea is a witch, and her Great Aunt didn't just die. She was murdered. Things go from bad to worse when Chelsea and her cousin start to follow the breadcrumbs. Her Great Aunt had been an infamous miser and hated by just about everyone on Pendle Island. Witches don't get much more wicked than Griselda. After an ancient legal loophole leaves Chelsea as the sole heir of Griselda's estate, she suddenly finds herself in charge of a haunted house on a hill, home to a mad pirate ghost, a talking cat, and a burly lumberjack with a curious secret. If that wasn't enough, she's got a dreamy sheriff to contend with, and a silver-tongued lawyer who is as charming as he is cunning. It's a lot to process, especially when Chelsea learns about a family curse dangling over her head. The last thing she wants is to end up like her man-eater mother, but it seems she can't help attracting attention...With a curse to run from, a murder to solve, and a needy cat to please, Chelsea finds her plate fills up very quickly. There's also the small matter of avoiding death and learning magic, but that's easy enough. Right?As Witch Would Have It is the first book in the Wicked Witches of Pendle Island mystery series. It's fast, funny, and may contain a sassy animal or two.

A fun cozy mystery featuring a witch as the MC. I thought the magic system was fun. Overall, I enjoyed it & will be reading the next book in the series.

I‘m alternating these #screamathon & #scarathlon reads:

The tagged (e-book)–a fun cozy mystery featuring witches (#TeamHarkness). I‘m at about 50% & I like it so far.

Wolfgang (physical)–a vampire hunter novel features with loads of monsters.

The Halloween Tree (audio)–a short (3hrs) fantasy-horror adventure.

4hrs so far for #CYOreadathon & rapid readers #bookpathfinder #readlikehellathon#spooktober & #thrilloween + #bookspin & #bookishbingo

Sace I love that cover for Halloween Tree! 4y
