***5 ‘I’ll Put You In Your Place, You Demon’ Stars***
I freakin’ LOVE this world!
The plethora of unique, quirky and crazy characters that inhabit it hit all the right buttons for me and, if I’m absolutely honest, is why I was so excited to visit Haven Lake again.
After reading the first book in the series, I was hooked, I wanted to get to know everyone better and in this baby we definitely get to dive deeper into the Thorn family, as well as the shifter Packs ~ which was quite interesting to see as the two that are primarily involved here definitely differ in how they approach things.
But Avery, the Thorn family as a whole and their familiars are all kinds of crazy goodness! I loved watching Avery learn more about her magic and work at becoming one with it. She worked hard ~ all while being her sassy and snarky ~ and came out so much stronger for it. I loved how the entire family may antagonize one another to the extreme, but they also care deeply for each other and will have each others backs no matter what.
As for the mystery. It was very well done and quite entertaining and kept me turning the pages to see what would happen next and just who the killer was ~ which was a surprise and yet made perfect sense.
I don’t read much outside the romance genre, so this series is a nice little break from my norm ~ though there is a touch of romance in the series. And after the way this one ends, I am definitely looking forward to getting my hands on Freaky Magic and hanging out with Thorn family again!

Haven Lake’s famous summer festival is here—and so is another dead body.
Two months after solving the murder of the Head of the Witch Council and almost dying in the process, Avery Thorn has re-settled into life in Haven Lake.
Snow is still ornery, Aristotle is still playing Scrabble in the attic with Lady Barnacles every night, and Grandma Cherry is threatening to cross over if her binding spell isn’t lifted.
As the new historical tour guide for the influx of visiting paranormals, Avery doesn’t have the time to worry about her ghostly grandmother. She has enough on her hands between the grumpy Detective Dax Sanders, her new friendship with future werewolf alpha Cameron Martinez, and one persistent elf who won’t let her get out of a dinner date.
Until she finds a dead body in the cemetery on the first night of the festival.
A dead body that isn’t supposed to be there—and it belongs to the visiting werewolf alpha’s daughter.
With the town on lockdown, Avery knows it’s only a matter of time before the pack from Haven Bay get involved and things go crazy. Between her, Nicole, and Dotty, they have to get to the bottom of this as quickly and easily as possible.
But where the Thorn witches go, havoc is sure to follow…
