To Catch a Witch by Heather Blake

5.0

If I ever left Alaska, I would seriously want to live in the Enchanted Village. I would move there in a heartbeat, in spite of all of the craziness that goes on. After all, it's part of the character, right? ;)

After bingeing the previous seven books on audio in just a few weeks, I was utterly heartbroken to realize that I had to wait FOUR WHOLE MONTHS to be able to find out what happened next in the series. Seriously - I was miserable for a few days. (Yes, I'm a dork, but a dork who loves to read. Sue me.)

If my anguished scream after finishing the book (in just a few days - a record for me) was any indication of how good it was, then I needn't write any more. My husband and daughter looked at me and I cried, "The next book isn't likely going to come out until NEXT YEAR!! AUGH!" That got an eyeroll from my daughter (who has no room to talk, really - she loves the characters as much as I do) and a chuckle from my husband.

The book, as usual, had me laughing and tearing up and staying up WAY too late reading when I should have been sleeping. It's a rare book these days that can get me to do that. I love my sleep. I loved getting back to the lives of Darcy, Harper, Evan, Starla, Mimi, and Nick, along with the other residents of the Enchanted Village. You really felt for the people and wanted to strangle some of the others. (Oh my gosh, Dorothy - I can't even with her!) Still, it was a fantastically fun book that had me turning the pages as quickly as I could. I also got quite hungry anytime Darcy visited Evan in his bakery. I'd be right there with Darcy, inhaling all of the Devil's food cake. All of it.

If you want a fun series (audio and physical - get them both, seriously) I definitely recommend this one! The characters come to life and make you want to be right there with them to offer a hug, a smack upside the head, or a cup of coffee. I can't wait until the next one. I want to see what happens! ACK!
