Quite a fun second story in this series. Tied closely in with the first book, you’ll definitely want to read them in order. A child as a plot point is a pet peeve of mine and this one was no better, not really sure what the point was except to tie the wife to the town. The library is safe but our magical librarian is there to help.

What a great second installment! Our favorite Witch Librarian is back in Seven Year Witch (the second book in the Witch Way Librarian Mysteries) surrounded by her feline familiar sleuthing partner, quirky townspeople, magic and of course…murder! 4/5⭐️

This was a decent book, on par with the first one, the characters lack depth for me, and I'm slightly confused as to whether she becomes Rodney or controls him and can see through his eyes. Idk, the description seemed like a bit of both when she found the knife. I keep reading these bc I love Josies relationship with the books, they way they talk to hear! I love the magic in these books, but the story lines themselves feel like they are just lacking for me to say I love the book in its entirety. On to the next one, nonetheless!

Really like the witchy vibes, small town setting and Rodney (the black cat)... Josie is solid and I don't mind her relationship with Sam

Instant intrigue. Slightly disappointed by the ending, but overall the mystery was well executed and the cat's inclusion was cute and appreciated. Not sure how I feel about the magical lore, but it was unique and I enjoyed the read.
