Ok, didn't hold my attention very well. Great beach read. True fluff and stuff. ( )

This is the thirs book in the Bewitching Mystery series by Madelyn Alt. I really enjoy this series. The characters are believable and likeable. The mystery is entertaining and keeps you guessing until the end. This series is a good, qucik, fun read that I would definetly recommend. ( )

#3 Maggie O’Neill paranormal mystery, latest in the so-called “Bewitching” mysteries. Wanted to get just one more series completed this month, and this one is wishlisted by a ton of folks at paperbackswap so decided to read it and move it along to the next on the list. I enjoyed this book more than the last one—not sure why, really. I like Maggie’s character, though I think she might be heading into Stephanie Plum territory—torn between two men and all that, which would be mightily annoying to me. I hope the author decides to pick one or another and get on with it and doesn’t further degrade the series by making it a romance in the guise of a mystery. ::sigh:: In this book, an Amish man is murdered brutally, and at first seems to be part of a growing trend of violence against the area’s Amish. But further investigation indicates that this was a personal attack against Luc, and that is borne out as Maggie works with her sometime-boyfriend Tom, a policeman, as well as the members of N.I.G.H.T.S., the local ‘ghostbusters.’ Once again, I have to say the ‘witchy bits’ are done well and I'm hoping the author is continuing the series--I don't see any word of a new one yet.

In this third volume of the Bewitching series, Maggie and her boss Liss go to a craft show and fall in love with an armoire by their Amish friend Eli and a young Amish man. Liss loses the armoire in the auction, and that day the young Amish craftsman is found murdered. Maggie and her friends are drawn into the case.

I really enjoyed this book. I continue to like the characters, and this time the plot was better than in book 3. The Amish back story adds interest. Recommended. ( )

A fun continuation of the Bewitching Mysteries series, "Hex Marks The Spot" again finds Maggie involved in a murder investigation, when an Amish artisan is bludgeoned outside the small town of Stony Mill. I like a mystery where the clues are clear enough that the reader can figure things out just a bit before the reveal. Alt does a good job of this, though perhaps I had it figured out a little too early. Nonetheless, I had fun returning to the characters, and enjoyed the heating romantic triangle between Maggie, Tom the cop, and Marcus the witch. Personally, I'm rooting for Marcus, but we'll see. ( )
