I just love this series. It’s my comfort read.

[Sarah Bennett · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ugh another great story by Emily!!! Literally I love this series so much that every time I see it having a new book come out I just can't wait to read it. This one goes into Noema and how she figures out her powers. Realistically, I didn't think she would have magic. So you learned so much from this book. Plus the mystery of who the anonymous governor person was, plus who is associated with them and the actual villain in this book just blew my mind. But I actually was closer this time than any other time that I read these books. So get ready for more action, more love, and something else! I won't say too much because I don't want to ruin it for you guys but it like makes me happy. Now the twist in this book was so good because what do you mean that happened? What do you mean they were doing that? What do you mean!!! I literally cannot wait for book 7 because I need to know what happens. But every time I read the series I just love it more and more because of the mystery, the way everything is intertwining, and you just noticing stuff that you never noticed before. Because a few characters from the previous books do appear again in this one. But you never guessed who it would be!

What a wonderful book! The story is unique and oh boy, what a suspense! The characters are absolutely riveting. I love Noema and Lorelai, and Seth is so romantic. Highly recommended.

A review copy of this book was sent to me by the author. All of the above opinions are my own.

Great

Oh, man. I've been waiting for this and the reveals in it. No spoilers intended, but I've been waiting for something to happen the whole series, and it finally happened. No body better mess this up for me, either.

This was definitely my favorite story from this series!! It was magical and wonderful and absolutely perfect for Halloween! I adore the relationships in this one (all sorts, family, found family, everything!!). Such a splendid and cozy and delightful read!

Another fantastic adventure with Noema. Now we are starting to get answers to the protection spell, Noema's magic and who her family really are.

When I recommend cozies, I usually say they are self-contained mysteries, which means the mystery starts and ends in each book. However, I also recommend starting with the first one in the series if you want to follow the character growth and subplots. In the case of The Bewitcher's Beach Mysteries, especially with this sixth one, Witches, Walkie-Talkies, and Warnings, it's even more important to start at the beginning and read them in order. There are several major spoilers in this installment. If you've read the previous installments, you'll be delighted to see those references, but if you haven't read the earlier books, some of the mysteries will be spoiled if you read this one first.

This is a mostly clean cozy mystery. There were one or two instances of strong language that I prefer not to read in cozies, but it was toned down quite a bit in this installment compared to the previous one. One of my struggles with this book was that the magic was a little confusing to me. I didn't understand the complexities of it all. However, when I stopped trying to figure everything out, I enjoyed the ride much more.

One of the highlights of this series for me is the character development and the eclectic mix of paranormal characters. It is a joy to see them all interact with each other. Noema is a single mom with several pups. There was a love triangle, but this installment has Noema feeling sure that she has romantic feelings for only one of them. One character I really missed again in this installment was Squeaks, the family's pet mouse. Squeaks was mentioned, but I missed seeing more of him.

This series is set in the 1990's. The earlier books are stronger with the nostalgia. It's still present in Witches, Walkie-Talkies, and Warnings, though not as prominent. It was one of the aspects that drew me to the series in the beginning, so I really miss that.

One aspect that has remained prominent is that Noema shifts from human form to wolf form when it becomes necessary. I'm always amused at how this transpires. Emily Fluke's vivid descriptions of this and the setting in general really pull me in. Noema also continues to use her strong sense of smell when she sniffs out emotions to help her get a feel for whether or not characters are telling the truth. It's a helpful gift to have when you're an amateur sleuth.

Fans of this series will not want to miss Witches, Walkie-Talkies, and Warnings. It's a strong addition to the Bewitcher's Beach Mystery series that moves forward with Noema's journey. It's set in the fall leading up to Halloween, but it can certainly be enjoyed anytime of the year. There will be one more installment to conclude the series and I look forward to reading it when it's released.

Thank you to author Emily Fluke for providing me with an eARC of this book.

Emily Fluke is at the top of my chart for delivering a top notch slow burn. I am blown away. I want a Sett of my own!! The series has been building up to THIS book and it was all I imagined it could be.
I can’t wait for the next book and I hope this series goes on for many years. This series, Bewitchers Beach and the characters have my heart.
This is without a doubt a 5 star read for me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Reilly AS · Rating 5 out of 5]

This might be my favorite book of the entire Bewitchers Beach series.

Guys, I cannot tell you much without spoiling some of the previous books as well as this one. Just know the phrase "I love you" finally gets said by our ship. I literally could not get over how cute this book was. The slow burn was truly starting to kill me until this one.

Why this book is amazing:
~Single POV
~Shifter/Gagoyle
~Mystery
~They need to save the town before it's too late

Thank you so much Emily Fluke for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

Side note, please release the next book like right now. I need to know what happens next.

[Sarah Havener · Rating 5 out of 5]

Gah! Finally progress on the relationship front! I love sappy Sett! And this time the investigation involves family in the best way! I really like that the book gives little snippets of reminders of things that happened in previous books. And somehow the plot keeps getting twistier and deeper.

[Jennie · Rating 5 out of 5]

I give this book 4 1/2⭐️ it was cute fun and cozy with a mystery

[Briana Briggs · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such a fun book!! Loved the continuation of the series, and the progress of a certain romance was absolutely adorable!!!!! Can't wait for the next one.
