This was actually really cute. It was a quick read, and I found myself laughing and enjoying every minute. I'll definitely be reading the entire series.

Engrossing.
With just the right mix of mystery murder and a little magic, I found this first in series hard to put down. With gentle subtlety, this author introduces you to the characters and situations in this not so ordinary town weaving an all too believable story of murder and hidden secrets, there's even a little burgeoning romance. Whilst I'm not usually a fan of this genre I must admit I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Highly recommended for fans of this genre, Baz.

Good
This is a good little book that is a fast read. It holds your interest and is pretty straightforward. I am sure there is more to learn about the people at Sales Public.

One of the best witch cozy mysteries!
I loved this book! Witch cozy mysteries are hit or miss but this one had everything I like! Likeable characters, intriguing but not violent mystery, humor, friendship & a little romance. Maddie is a librarian in Salem. Her family are witches but she wants to live a normal life and doesn't practice witchcraft. The library has a fund raiser and one of the donors ends up dead. Her coworker, Mrs Ward, has a son Jackson, who is a police detective. The 3 of them work together to solve the mystery. Very enjoyable!

'Wicked Witchcraft' was a great quick read. Full of laughs, great characters and mystery. The story line was well written and well played out. I loved Maddie. She's fun and a likable character. I truly enjoyed her. Mrs. Ward was one of those characters you can't help but love. Her antics are great. The author's writing style was one of those types that had my attention from the first paragraph. I look forward to reading more. A great add to your tbr list.

Obvious culprit but a nice introduction to the sisters
Great coffee break read but could have done with being longer. She has never embraced her witchy side and has always been the perfect librarian. However her latest money raising scheme has come unstuck when a body is found in the elevator. The cult was obvious but the story did give you a good introduction to the two sisters. Hope the books are more of a mystery.

Wicked witchcraft
A librarian who denies her ability, a sister who embraces her talent, a mother who is determined, and an additional cast that can tickle your funny bone take the reader on a mystery. This story is a fun read even if it has some crazy happenings. Relax and take a break from reality.

Overall a good story
I was initially rather disappointed in how things were going. The early fights between Maddie and Jackson put me off. It wasn't until I recognized it as apparently their way of hiding feelings that the story improved.
Action-packed. Entertaining. Haunting. Scary. Tragic. Twisted. Unpredictable. Wonderful characters.

Entertaining
Entertaining story about a witch, a cop ,and a murder at a library fundraiser. The characters were not well introduced and the storyline was predictable but it was an enjoyable, quick read.

Nice read
A few editing errors, nothing major. Book was good, but nothing about it made it more than merely average to me.

The book was great. I wasn't sure at first when I started, but the more I read the more interesting it became. Of course the ending was great. Can't wait to read more of your books. 😊

A good cozy mystery. Great read.
Loved the characters. As a wiccan myself, I liked how the sister was portrayed in this story .... she was no weirder than me anyway! lol.

Another "women can't take care of themselves" story
Tired of women protagonists that are treated like incompetent or stupid children by the male characters in the story. Jeez...

A dead body can really ruin a good fundraiser, especially when the body is the richest man in town. But the police are stumped, and the murderer is still at large. Maybe a little witchcraft is going to be needed?
