Karma’s Witches Are Here!
Read on for my thoughts on Life’s A Witch. No true spoilers, promise.
Karma’s Witches is a series written by three authors. At this date there are six novels – so two sets so far. The series is fun, lighthearted and quirky. Exactly what I was looking to find for this Halloween Romance marathon of mine. These are novellas, very short so there is a lot of story packed into each one. I would strongly recommend reading them in order as they tell a tale with three parts to make an overall story, in a way told from three viewpoints. No cliffhangers, each is a complete story and part of a trilogy of connected stories.
Now, on to Life’s A Witch. Since the stories are short I’m going to need to skim a bit on the details otherwise I will be giving away spoilers.
Amber has lived a life as a victim of her mother’s hatred. She was never pretty enough, smart enough or even wanted by the woman she called Momma. Now, years after the woman’s death Amber is still afraid of her. Afraid of change. Her constant companion Mr. Darcy, her cat is pretty much the only soul she speaks to.
Amber works in an out of the way bookstore where she has plenty of time to work on her own writing in between customers and restocking the shelves. Even the adorable man with the wicked dimples who lightly flirts with Amber doesn’t get much of a response at first. Amber is truly trapped in a life not of her choosing.
But that is about to change. One event, one mysterious book will put into question everything that Amber thought she knew about her life. And will open the door to a new life full of feelings and adventures if she can only be brave enough to believe.
I really enjoyed Life’s A Witch. It’s a quick read, but a good story. Enough so that it can grab your attention and lure you onto the next story in the series to find out what happens next.
Life’s A Witch is available for the Kindle (and on this date for the Kindle Unlimited plan – not sure for how long so check it out if you have KU)
