Mr. & Mrs. Witch felt like Mr. & Mrs. Smith meets old school Sabrina the Teenage Witch or Bewitched. It definitely had the cozy, witchy romance vibe down very well with an added sprinkle of suspense and espionage.
The book was really well marketed and the plot was how it was described in the blurb. I feel like this book will be great for fans of Go Hex Yourself and The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches. The characters are fun, the romance isn't just a side plot which I think happens a lot w/ the cozy witchy romances lately that are similar in idea.
I enjoyed the read, even though at times it felt slow and the flashbacks interrupted the action often. I can tell this was on purpose and usually I enjoy that, but in this case of this book with the plot being centered around the Mr. & Mrs. Smith-like magical couple "battling" it out, it definitely was disruptive to the flow in a few parts.
I would definitely still recommend this book for fans of similar books (listed above), but for me personally this wasn't a read I'll be following up on if more stories in this world are written by the author. Although I would be willing to try other books by this author down the road.
