Lighthearted Magical Fun

This is the first installment of the Wayward Witch Chronicles. In this series we meet Melissa Sneedle, last in a long line of powerful witches, who, unfortunately seems to have little magic. Disappointed and upset, Melissa stumbles on a magical portal which brings her to “normal” town where quickly gets a job at a local bookstore. With the help of her best friend, a guy, she tries to assimilate into the “normie” population. However, the death of her mentor, the bookshop owner, who turns out to be her aunt, sets things in motion to totally disrupt her life.

This was a sweet, funny, witty start to a new series. The characters are well done and very likeable. This is a delightful paranormal cozy mystery story and I look forward to listening to more books in the series in the future.

Shannon Nicole Locke is a new narrator to me, but she did an excellent job with these characters. Her voice was pleasant to listen to and her voices were clearly differentiated for each character. She really captured the humor and wittiness of the story and characters.

A Magical Who Done It! Delightful Fun!

Being classified as “inept” in the witch world had Melissa longing to live among the “normies” in the non-magical world, but as she soon found out, nothing is ever really “normal”, especially when the nefarious get involved! Delightfully written, beautifully narrated and filled with brilliantly created, imaginative characters “Magic by the Book” is a fantastic series starter! This well written, original and entertaining story played out clearly and imaginatively, holding me spellbound from beginning to end! The story flowed beautifully! No spoilers! As you listen, I’m sure you will be every bit as entertained as I was! MY attention was instantly captured by the witty dialogue, so beautifully and emotionally spoken. Every character so distinctly voiced! Every emotion so clearly conveyed! Every scene so perfectly set, truly painting a picture of the author’s vision in my mind! I honestly thought I had this one solved, but no, turns out I was wrong! But honestly, I was so throughly entertained that I really didn’t mind! I loved everything about this story and I can’t wait to see what happens with these delightful characters as the series continues! Five fantastic stars! I loved it!

Magically Inept Witch

This is a new series that deals with a young witch from a predominant witch family,who's magic fizzles out a lot. She is so tired of trying to do spells correctly and being chastised for her badly working spells, that she want to move to a normal town and live life as a normal. Narrator does a good job with the characters and Storyline.

Delightful story!

Magic by the Book is the first in the Wayward Witch Chronicles by Melinda Craig. Melissa Sneedle is ready to accept that she is a failure as a witch and leave the magic world behind. She found a portal to a normal town and befriended the bookstore owner. On her 2nd day of work at the bookstore, Melissa finds the owner dead. Even more shocking is that Melinda inherits everything. What is going on in this town? Melinda and her friend Joe are determined to find out! Great story of self discovery and finding where you belong. The narration by Shannon Nicole Locke is wonderful. She brings the characters and story to life.

Witchy Fun by the Book

This was my first time reading/listening to a book by this author, and what a delight it was! I was thoroughly entertained by the story and I'm excited for more of Melissa's witchy adventures and her love life. Pretty Boy was definitely a favorite! Shannon Nicole Locke's narration was the icing on an already good cake. Five stars all around!
