About this listen

Welcome to Myrtlewood, a quirky town steeped in magic, tea, and mystery…

Life’s a struggle for Rosemary Thorn and her teen daughter, Athena. But their regular troubles are turned upside down after Granny Thorn’s mysterious death.

Despite her cousin's sinister maneuverings, Rosemary returns to Myrtlewood and the sprawling, dilapidated Thorn Manor. There's more to the old house than meets the eye, as Rosemary and Athena soon find out—in a whirlwind of magic, adventure, mystical creatures, and endless cups of tea.

Life in Myrtlewood would be bliss if Rosemary could only clear her name in a certain murder investigation, solve the mystery and stay out of mortal peril—for at least a little while!

A small town with endless secrets, strange activities, and a house with a mind of its own.

Disappointed

Really wanted to like this book, but the narrator spoiled it completely. The main character sounded like a fed up old woman. The pause at the end of each sentence and the countless times we heard ‘Rosemary said’ was so annoying. Disappointed.

could have been great

I gave up on this book due to the painfully slow narration. Otherwise I think I would have really enjoyed it. May try just reading it.

Lovely cosy magical mystery

This is a lovely cosy small town magical mystery I very much enjoyed listening to.
Some of the storytelling was a little obvious but definitely not the worst I have read. Also the narrators voice was lovely if a little slow, my only criticism of them would be that they muddled which voice they used for who in some of the lengthier scenes. I doubt it with bother most people. Those are my only criticisms and I'll admit they are pretty picky, I really enjoyed the book on the whole.

Such a surprise

I started this book a bit cautiously, the reviews put me off a little - they were so mixed. Everyone seemed to agree though the story was fun. It was fun and I’ve already finished book two. Funny and quirky as well as a story that cracks on in a good hearted way.

The issue with the narration, which was irritatingly slow and laboured was totally solve for me by playing the book at 1.2 speed

Now for book 3!

An enjoyable setting and storyline

This book was fairly easy to follow though I caught myself willing the characters to piece things together quicker, rather than them solving some of the mysteries for me. I would have loved to see more character depth and progression as well - maybe in the second book! Myrtlewood was a nice town to escape to.

So great I'm listening again.

This absolutely fabulous. I was hooked on first page. Characters are interesting and you can just tell there is so much ahead. I won't give anything away, so as not to spoil your enjoyment. However I can't wait to listen to the next.
Magical witchery....is definitely on my list. Thank you for writing this. You are my top author 🙂

Story is good narrator not so much!

The story is great but the voices given to one of main characters by the narrator is very annoying. Rosemary sounds like a very old creepy man very similar to the male voices attempted. Ruin the my enjoyment of the story.
