Summary

1535, Oxfordshire.

Lady Maude Shaftsberry has it all sorted. She will marry the well-connected lord, ascend the ranks of the Tudor court, and be mother to a small battalion of boys. But Maude has a secret that she carries everywhere: a birthmark that stretches over her stomach and between her legs. Is it a mark of fertility? Did her mother rub her pregnant belly too vigorously on the full moon? Or is it the sign of a witch?

Her new husband is certain it's the latter. Maude, faced with annulment and the nunnery, must make her own way.

The witches in town are the only ones who will give her refuge, but staying in the apothecary comes at a price. She must help and assist the witches. Surrounded by potions, star charts, and a fairy who appears to be a very large and handsome man who helps around the house, Maude begins to realize there is a strange and seductive power in being outcast.

Regrettably, I am About to Cause Trouble is a tale about being ostracised, and finding our power and family in unusual places.

This is a FUN book!

Have you ever read a book that left you feeling like it was the story you would have been craving had you only known it existed? This book was like that for me. The treatment of the setting was fresh and interesting. Witches! Real life characters (Reasonable is my favorite), a slight touch of magical realism. An all around satisfying read.

All the historical witchy goodness! What a gem!

Absolutely LOVED this audiobook. I felt like I’d been whisked back in time. Amie Mcnee paints such a vivid picture of a real Tudor life. She weaves in such fascinating details; it doesn’t feel abstract, you can feel, smell, taste and hear it.

I utterly loved Maude and feel such warmth for Hilde, Zita and Rufus; every time I pressed play felt like coming home to friends. I laughed out loud so many times and was sad but satisfied when it finished.

100% recommend!

Fascinating story

Maudlin is not an easy character to like. She’s arrogant, selfish and self absorbed. However, through some trials she steps into her power and life changes irrevocably. I loved the characters and their journeys. It’s a beautifully written book that I couldn’t help but devour at every opportunity.
