Publisher’s Summary
Finding your feet in a new job isn't always easy. That goes double for Josie Way, who's settling in as Wilfred, Oregon's, new librarian--and has just discovered she's a witch. But will her fledgling powers be enough to save her from a spell of murder?
While Josie develops her witchcraft with the help of letters left by her grandmother, there are other changes happening in her new hometown. A retreat center is being built at the old mill site, and rumor has it that the location is cursed. That piques Josie's interest almost as much as Sam Wilfred, handsome FBI agent and descendent of the town's founder...
When Sam's soon-to-be ex-wife, Fiona, goes missing at the same time that a bloodied weapon is found, Josie enlists her witchy insight, and her cat familiar, to clear Sam's name. But then the mill project's architect is found dead, and it's clear that someone has been drawing up a vicious plan. Now Josie will have to divine her way out of fatal mischief, before this deadly trouble turns double...

My Review
This year, I have been working my way through Madelyn Alt's "A Bewitching Mystery" series. I love the characters and stories so much but I'm trying to make the series last so it won't be over too quick. Searching for some other cozy mysteries featuring witches, I found Angela Sanders' "Witch Way Librarians Mysteries" series. I read the first book in the series "Bait and Witch" in May in anticipation of the September release of the second book. I am now firmly invested in the characters and small town happenings of Wilfred, Oregon. The main character lives in an apartment above the library she oversees (hello, my dream) and is just beginning to figure out her powers as witch. One power is bibliomancy--books give her clues to mysteries and she can also match the perfect book to every reader. I feel like I'm pretty good with book recommendations but how cool would it be?
This is a great cozy series, perfect for autumn or lovers of paranormal/witch mysteries. I'm already anticipating the next in the series and would love a yearly installment of Josie's mystery solving skills.
