Be Careful What You Witch For
, by Emily Fluke, is the prequel novella to her upcoming Bewitcher's Beach Paranormal Cozy Mysteries. The prequel is available to download for free on BookFunnel. Being a fan of cozies with a witchy vibe, I knew I had to check this one out. Plus, I know people say don't judge a book by it's cover, but I just love this one.

In this paranormal cozy, a creature goes missing and Lulu sets out to solve this puzzle. Was the victim murdered, and if so, how? Is someone in her crotchet club guilty? What secrets are revealed along the way while Lulu tries to put the pieces of this puzzle together? 

Wow! I am amazed how much is cleverly packed into this quick read. We learn a lot about about several characters and there are so many twists and turns, but it never feels overwhelming. The mystery is well-crafted, with several clues and suspects to consider. I was shocked when the whodunit was revealed, but it all made sense in the end. There are not only witches, but also vampires and werewolves in this cozy town. It is a definite page-turner that can be read in a short period of time.

The atmosphere was enticing. I am not one who crotchets, but I found myself engrossed in the descriptions of the process as Lulu put her thoughts together and tried to untangle this mystery. It takes place around Christmas time and I was fully immersed in the setting with all the descriptions that were woven into the story. What a welcome escape during these hot summer days I'm currently experiencing in real life!

If you are a fan of paranormal cozy mysteries, I highly recommend checking out Be Careful What You Witch For, by Emily Fluke. It's especially perfect for Christmas time in December, Christmas in July, or anytime you want to get those Christmas feels while solving a cozy mystery. It's a great beginning to the Bewitcher's Beach Paranormal Cozy Mysteries. After reading this prequel, I can't wait to read the first book in the series!

    1. You're welcome! Not sure if you read this before I corrected it. It's available for free on BookFunnel, not through her newsletter. :-)
