Third Time Is a Charm: A Witches Three Cozy Mystery
Amanda Clarke possesses the rarest, most powerful form of the ability to see and manipulate time itself.
If only she knew how to use it. All she gets are vague impressions, little intuitions that compel her to act.
When she pays a visit to her friend Nick’s apartment, one of her witchy feelings is warning her about the apartment across the hall. The empty apartment. The apartment no one has gone in or out of in years.
She promises Nick to follow the rules this time. But the feeling won’t be ignored. She gathers the Witches Three and they magic their way inside.
And find a body dressed for 1928 but still warm and only recently dead in 2018. Yet another case beyond the local police department, but perfect for the Witches Three.
“Third Time is a Charm”, Book 3 in the Witches Three Cozy Mystery series. This mélange of magic and murder mystery is sure to charm you.

The gangster, the witch and the wardrobe
Another terrific read. Mind you it must admit that i felt slightly peeved at her two fellow witches - shouldn't the feeling be 'One for all and all for one". A plot that spans time, gangsters and witches. It's good to see her powers grow but her fellow witches could get more supportive.
A meal with Nick and his grandfather was nerve wracking but as she passed the condo next to theirs a feeling of pain overwhelmed her. Almost like being bludgeoned over the head. Later she comes back to investigate. A dead body in a wardrobe and worse it is from 1927! Add in a wardrobe that can move things through time, a gang turf war, a witch and possibly another two victims. Will she be able to find out who the dead body was and who killed him? Will her skills at going into the web of time increase? Who is the witch and what is her aim?

Hmmm...3.5 stars.
I probably would have rounded up if it weren't for the pseudo love-triangle thing going on. I've read the synopses of future books, and I know who Amanda ends up with, and I don't like it.
This one was also a little darker than the first couple of books. It wasn't bad, but there were things in it that I just didn't love.
However, I am enjoying the series enough to continue. It just won't go down as one of my favorites.

Third Time is a Charm
I enjoy watching Amanda grow more confident in her abilities. She is the last of the three witches to learn about witchcraft. She has so much doubt about her ability to learn, but the more she uses the magic not only for her own reasons but to help others, she is growing by leaps and bounds.

Amanda is starting to understand more of her powers, but runs across a mysterious magical armoire that defies her current knowledge. She spends quite a bit of time in the past and runs afoul of another witch. The book abruptly ends with the three witches each researching a different aspect of their skills and knowledge. The ending is wide open to the next book in the series.

I enjoyed this 3rd book in the series. Amanda finally realizes she has to step up and work harder if she is going to figure out her powers without having to always depend on the other 2 witches.

Love how the ladies of the Charm School are starting to come together and learn their craft more. Overall a great and engaging story, and it keeps my interest throughout!
