In a Witch's Wardrobe by Juliet Blackwell

I'm really not much of a mystery person, but I've enjoyed these. The main character is a witch who owns a vintage clothing shop in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco. The mystery always involves something supernatural, with ghosts and curses and secret societies. This one centers on a murder and a half-one woman's body is in a coma, while her spirit is trapped in a mirror. I also enjoy the character development across the books, as we see Lily slowly trusting people after coming from a less than supportive Texan upbringing. And Oscar, her potbellied pig/half-gargoyle/half-goblin is too stinkin' cute! All in all, this book was a fun weekend read.

HEX by Thomas Olde Heuvelt

I found this on a list of the best recent horror novels and got really excited since I've been trying to find something that could truly scare me. This fell short. It started out strong, a rural town in New York keeps itself off the radar since the whole town is cursed/haunted by a witch from the 1600s. That's right, this witch, who has her eyes and mouth sewn shut as her whispers make people want to kill themselves, walks around the town, hangs out in your house, stands at the end of your bed for days, and then poofs out of there to hang out somewhere else. The town keeps track of her movements through an app. Now the teens of the town want to out the witch to the world so they can live normal teenage lives and things go haywire. This is where things take a deep downward spiral into awfulness. Great premise, but terrible follow-through.

This novel picks up at the end of book two and is one of the more satisfying trilogy conclusions I have read in awhile.

Arriving at Matthew's ancestral home, they reunite with many friends and family from before. The realize they must find Ashmole 782 and it's missing pages and reunite the broken book before their future and the future of those they love is doomed.

Shadow of Night (All Souls Trilogy Book #2)

 Shadow of Night (All Souls Trilogy Book #2)
by Deborah Harkness
Pages: 584
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

This book picks up immediately from where, A Discovery of Witches left off. Diana and Matthew travel back in time to Elizabethan London where they meet famous literary and historical figures. It would be an amazing trip for Diana except for the spies and Matthew's past creating a web of danger all around them. Diana continues to seek out a witch who can tutor her, without drawing attention to her magical powers - this is the time of witch hunts and the Inquisition.

Clues to the whereabouts of Ashmole 782 lead them on on a dark and dangerous journey.
