Why read it?

1 author picked It Takes a Witch as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Heather Blake’s first Wishcraft mystery is a captivating story that delightfully blends crime, magic, romance, and self-discovery. The suspense remains high throughout the book and is not an easy mystery to solve. The characters and plot are spellbinding and full of charm, enchantment, and humor. I especially love the animals who speak and help provide the clues.

From Denise's list on feel good mysteries.
