Wicked Witches of the Midwest

-
I love Halloween, its one of my favorite holidays. This year for Halloween I started reading the Wicked Witches of the Midwest series by Amanda M. Lee and I got to say they did not disappoint. Not only are they beautifully written they are absolutely hilarious. The first book in the series "Any Witch Way You Can" had me dying. 
The book is set in a little town called Hemlock Cove where witches are real and not just a ploy to attract tourists. Bay Winchester is the only news reporter at the weekly newspaper The Whistler, shes also a real witch along with the rest of her family and she can see and talk to ghosts. Bay's off to cover a story of one of the local corn mazes for Halloween when she comes across a very real dead body. The story follows Bay as she tries to solve the murder with the help of her two cousins Clove and Thistle and her crazy great aunt Tilly. 
 This book is one of my favorites. Its a cute little cozy mystery that makes you just want to curl up and binge read the entire series. The sarcasm and wit in this book had me cracking up and wanting more. I think I read all 15 books and the shorts in accouple weeks they were so addicting. If you are looking for an easy and fun read I definitely recommend these books. 
You can get these books for free on Amazon Kindle or buy paperback.

Hidden Kingdom Trilogy - L. Rose

A Lost Paige is book two in the Hidden Kingdom Trilogy, the first being A Torn Paige by L. Rose. I read the first book accouple weeks ago and debated writing a review about it in my Favorites of November post but decided against it. I wanted to love this book, and in some aspects I liked it but I found it severely lacking. This series centers around our heroine Paige Alice who in the first book we discover that she is the Ghoul Queen chosen to rule by the former queen shortly before she died. Paige meets Asher, the vampire, Nate, the wolf shifter, and Alex, the mage when she goes to meet her family at a restaurant being held captive by a demon. Paige kills the demon and comes into her power, enter man number four Thorne, the ghoul. I liked the beginning of the first book, I think it started really well but as I got deeper into it I got a little bored. Paige and her four new boys along with her hellhound Ezra end up going to the Ghoul Queens castle where Paige takes over as queen and f...

Gypsy Blood - Kristy Cunning

Kristy Cunning's All the Pretty Monsters series is great, I'm currently re-reading it so I'll start off with book one. I think she did a fantastic job with this series. It's well thought out, unique and entertaining. This story revolves around Violet, or January Violet Carmine. Violet is a twenty-five year old gypsy woman who after finding out her mother just died and left her everything in a small town called Shadow Hills moves to take over her mothers Gypsy Magic business, making healing potions as well as recreational "gypsy spice", and a bunch of other things. Violet is many things, a Portacle Gypsy being only one of those things, she has many secrets and layers to her that we very slowly begin to learn in book one, Gypsy Blood. At her mother's wake, where she's the only one in attendance Violet meets her ghost best friend Anna who literally enters riding her mothers casket wearing nothing but some lacy red underwear and becomes my favorite charac...

Gypsy Truths - Kristy Cunning

Wow. Violet often compares her life to a snowball rolling down hill, picking up speed as it goes. I have to say that's a great analogy for this series. Most of the time I was reading this book I had no idea what was going on. The second read was a little better but still, it's a lot of information and running around in circles most of the time but I just couldn't stop reading. Hence the reason this is my first post in like.. four days. "My snowball has finally reached the bottom of the hill," I tell him sounding halfway hysterical, as I angrily bat away the tears. "I thought I'd boulder through or just simply splat . Turns out there's a third option." "... I'm forced to continue rolling again in a different direction. It's starting at a crawl, building up those layers much too slowly to help me out at the moment," Seriously the snowball analogies are on point to describing the complexity of this book. Violet comes off as na...
