Festive Drinks and Season’s Hijinks:
Christmas time is here and it’s extra special this year as it is Azíl’s first Christmas. Willow is pulling out all the stops to make sure he enjoys it and his joy is catching. While the trouble of the Sect is still present as they’ve not fully gone away it’s still a happy time for friends and family together. From tree decorating to Christmas shopping it’s a holiday wonderland of a story.

Earl Grey and New Rules in Play:
This book and this series has a whimsy and joy to it that make the stories a delight to read. Seeing the modern world and all it offers through the eyes of Azíl is delightful. It’s like being a child again and everything is fresh and new. The happiness of normal everyday things like buying a desk or the frustration of putting furniture together make this series special. For while we get an escape into a magical world we also get the tether of experiences we’ve all had to make it inclusive. While all is not ideal ie tge looming threat of The Sect the series is a slice of escapism from the routine of day to day life. Each new installment is absolutely on my to be read list!

Berry Infusion and Lots of Confusion:
The Sect offer is hanging over Willow and Azíl’s heads. The future they want to build together is up in the air because they can’t shake the cult and the curse. So they set about planning how to get around it. Will they buy the curse? What will it cost? Can the get the authorities to step in and stop the sect? Lots of worries and planning in the works and a surprise from Sabine and the future is unclear but there’s hope that the worries may be ending.
Short read. There’s lots of balls in the air and uncertainty is the feeling I get most from the read. Not my favorite of the series but enjoyable enough.

I received an ARC copy of this book from the author and even though I wasn’t required to post a review I wanted to offer my honest, voluntary impression after reading it!

This is the third of four volumes comprising the entirety of the 12 books in the series; each volume comprising three books each.

In this series Sabine and Azil return to London from Morocco and Azil attempts to teach Willow wandless magic. Unfortunately it doesn’t work but instead his magic which has been dormant since he was imprisoned in the teapot starts to surface again!

Hannah gives Willow a way to contact the Sect and Azil gets set up in the Archive with Hannah. Willow goes with Azil and gets him a wand which ends up being not the same as most witches and warlocks use!

Clover finishes her cookbook and is pondering which company should publish it. Wilfred and Aisha show up at the coffee shop and Wilfred gives Willow some disturbing news that could affect her life with Azil! Willow and Azil have a heart to heart discussion on a matter that concerns them both and the Sect gives Willow an amount she’ll have to pay them if she wants to buy Azil’s curse before someone else can buy it! At the end of the last book ( number 9) in this volume, they hear from Sabine about a discovery in Morocco that just may be earth shattering in its importance!

This has been a very fun series to read and with the short books the pages just fly by! Spooky appears to have been given to Willow and Azil because her owner is gravely ill and things are now coming to a head with the Sect.

Can Willow find a way to bring them down without having to do something she doesn’t want to do to satisfy their demands and what is this major discovery Sabine has made in Morocco and how does it affect Azil and her by extension?

To find out if Willow, Azil, Spooky and the rest will have a happily ever after you and I need to read the final volume ( four) to find out!

I have enjoyed this series about a witch who owns and operates a coffee shop to fulfill a lifelong dream she shared with her grandfather. She was happy until the unexpected arrival of an object Sabine sent to her which changed her life for the better but also exposed them all to a secret sect that is determined to recurse Azil after his curse has been broken.

I happily recommend you pick up this four volume set and read all twelve books! It won’t take you that long as each book can probably be read within two hours so it’s easily doable! I have now read 9 of the 12 and will start the final three next!

I invite you to join me in reading this fun series about paranormals and imagine you are there when you read what happens to them!

CAULDRON COFFEE SHOP VOLUME 3 includes books 7-9 of this 12 book series by Laura Greenwood. The characters are wonderful and the entertaining plot make this story an entertaining, quick read. Get ready for magic, witches, a  3000 year old cursed warlock, secret magical Sect, ancient artifacts and so much more.


Willow and Azil continue their romantic and magical adventures. The big question: Can Willow and Azíl to settle into a normal life?  The Sect has offered them an  opportunity to buy Azil’s curse, but  could it cost them more than just  money.

Willow main concern now is to make Azíl's first Christmas one to remember. There's going to be a lot for Willow and Azíl to experience together. Maybe a new office, a shopping trip for a new wand to spark Azil's forgotten magic. Even a dinner with Willow's parents.  Unfortunately, they can't shake the feeling that the Sect is still hanging over their heads still.

I received an advance copy of this book from the author, and the above is my voluntary and honest review

Willow & Azil adventures continues but in this omnibus they are put through the ringer, a bit more intense than previous stories. I'm loving this series!!

I received an ARC from the author and am leaving my review freely.

[Christinaraven · Rating 5 out of 5]

A bit more drama in this set causes some trouble and light tension for Willow and Azil. Plus the Sect raises its head a bit too. Made me laugh and sigh this time around but I was entertained. Just a quick and cute read with fun characters. And had to see what decisions they would make this time around and what it might lead to.

Who is lurking in the shadows?

Willow and Azil’s adventure continues in this three-book set. The Sect is more insistent. Willow may be forced to choose between Azil and the coffee shop. New discoveries are made at the dig. It’s all exciting reading! I received a free copy of this book, but my review is honest and voluntary.

Books 7-9 of this cozy/supernatural series

The main characters (Willow & Azil) are still good however there was much more "slice of life"-type narrative in this collection and I felt it slowed things down a little too much - like a series being stretched out to too many books at times.


(I was fortunate to receive an ARC however the above is, as ever, my own opinion.)

[Zara · Rating 5 out of 5]

Utterly fantastic series! Super easy to read books - and I hugely appreciate that these are now in volumes so I could read all of them back to back even more easily. Love the characters, mystery, wit, and magic involved. If you want delightful and fun quick reads, you should check this series out!

Things are ramping up with the mysterious Sect, and some major life decisions need to be made by Willow and Azil in this collection of stories. This series is a wonderful mix of cozy fantasy and realistic relationship issues, and it's always a joy to return to the Cauldron Coffee Shop.

[Carolyn Evans · Rating 5 out of 5]

The third collection of coffee shop magic includes books 7 through 9, and the enchanting characters continue on their romantic, magical adventures with a clearer understanding of their adversary, The Sect. Fortunately, they have lots of support from their friends and family to help them through.

[Steve · Rating 5 out of 5]

I do so love this series. I didn’t think I would be into cozy drama but this has changed that for sure. Willow and Azil are put through the wringer in this one. Cannot wait for the next one. Highly recommended.

[Sophie Eaton · Rating 4 out of 5]

In this volume we follow Azíl as he experiences his first Christmas, with a Broomstick Bakery cross over at the Christmas Fayre. He gets his first wand and the Sect gets in touch about his curse leading to other issues. A cosy fantasy series that is very easy and enjoyable to read.

[Jo Fouracre · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow this series really hotted up in these three books willow and azil really have so much up against them but they keep plodding on and fighting for what’s right. I love this series it’s great.. desperate to finish the last three and find out what happens in the end

[Rowan Creech · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book series blends magic with wonderful characters and captivating stories, creating a truly mystical reading delight.

[Debbie Benson · Rating 4 out of 5]

I'm voluntarily leaving a review after receiving a free copy. I liked how they spend Christmas together. I'm glad Azil got his magic back but the Sect is trying a different way to get at Azil.

Cauldron Coffee Shop Vol 3
Compromising of books 7-9: Festive Drinks and Season’s Hijinks, Earl Grey and New Rules in Play, Berry Infusion and Lots of Confusion, Willow and Azil continue to grow closer while trying to decide how to deal with the threat of the curse hanging over them. Willow plans to make Azil’s first Christmas special, totally surprised by just how much he makes her feel loved, especially with an incredibly thoughtful gift. Azil tries to teach Willow wandless magic and they realize his powers might be returning. Wand shopping follows along with meeting Willow’s parents. The Sect offers them the chance to buy Azil’s curse, but will the cost be more than the risk? And a pregnancy scare makes them realize just how much they both want a family and future together.

Willow and Azil are such wonderful characters and I’m really enjoying the series as they grow together. The way they support and encourage each other is very sweet and charming. The crossover with the Broomstick Bakery series adds depth to the other relationships and I’m looking forward to diving into that series as well. The threat of the Sect adds a nice element of conflict without making artificial interpersonal drama.

Ancient warlock learning new traditions

A fun series by Laura Greenwood about a witch called Willow who owns and runs a coffee shop in England, with the help of a warlock and a cat with a mind of it's own. Willow and Azil are trying to enjoy things but the threat of the Sect is always still in the background, though they won't let that stop them from enjoying Christmas celebrations.

Contains the next three books in the series:
Festive Drinks And Season's Hijinks
Earl Grey And New Rules In Play
Berry Infusion And Lots Of Confusion
