This story literally picks up where the previous one left off and included non stop laughs from beginning to end. It seemed a bit longer with a more developed plot and I loved the introduction of the new witchy characters. My main issue with it is that the big conflicts wrapped up just a little too easily and I felt there should have been more resistance in that part of the plot. Also while I know Hunter isn't a huge character yet, being Leigh's boyfriend I kind of feel like we should know him a bit better than we do so far. That said I'm excited about the next book in this hilarious paranormal comedy series.

I really liked this book, same as the first in the series. It's original and full of surprises throughout. However, something was missing so it only got 3 stars not four. I still think (like the last book) that it's more of a 3.5 stars though. It's still one of my favourite books.

You can't beat the storyline, we now have a Witches Union to contend with, Leigh must do as they say because they're the top dogs. Which means write what they want written. They're actually a bit of a thorn in the side. Leigh also has a "mentor" now to help her learn the ropes, however I do use this term loosely, ha ha.

This book is highly entertaining, Leigh gets in even more trouble with her writing than before - metaphors are very bad!! She can't write any metaphors or they're taken literally when they happen in our world, I thought this was a nice twist.

The romance between Leigh and Hunter is going well, despite it's setbacks and challenges. It's actually an interesting aspect of the story to watch their relationship develop, especially since she knows he'll be going away to police school soon.

Also, her cat Luna is absolutely adorable! She's got it down to a T. I'm a cat owner myself and she has the quirks and mannerisms just right to make the cat spring into life.

The storyline is very well thought out, I love it! My only disappointment is I'm now going to have to wait for the next book to be published. But hey-ho! That's a good thing right?

This book is very exciting and easy to read. It'd make an excellent bed-time casual read or for holiday. I'd recommend it to lovers of supernatural romance, witch-themed stories, and drama.

I love how amazing this story is told. I listend to this with an audio book from Audible. It was amazing to listen to. I found myself falling into the story. I just adore all the characters! And Hunter? Talk about yummy! I plan on going back and reading this series at some point. I can't wait to dig into the next book though! I fully recommend this! If you love paranormal books with a lot of humor, this is the book for you!

This is the second book in the Literal Leigh series. I have been anxiously awaiting it since the moment I finished Accidental Leigh and it was well worth the wait. I LOVED IT! I was laughing so hard at times, I think my family thought I was crazy. This book was just as if not more funny. Leigh is learning more about her magic and how the story she is writing is affecting her friends and family. This book has a little bit of everything in it from romance, suspence, and paranormal. Absolutly can not wait to get my hands on Hopeful Leigh.

Bless her witchy little heart, Leigh is not really serious, thankfully. If you want to be entertained, this is just what you are looking for. This had me laughing all the way to work on a Monday morning. Great way to start the day. I'm looking forward to more of her antics. Great comic relief.
