A Little Heavy on the Potty Humor

After the 1,000th utterance, “pixie poop” loses its southern charm. Same goes for “hexing your hinney” and “hinney” in general. Talk of unicorn farts fails to impress. The author seems hung up on bodily fluids/functions.

She does craft a decent mystery, however. There are a few too many inconsequential characters. As well as characters who should play a more prominent role who we are not introduced to before they just appear in the third person, such as Matt’s wife, TJ.

These books are allllllll about the narrator. Johanna Parker is incredible and fun. Her tired old Nana voices are pretty much the same for every old woman, but I’ll overlook that. Her pacing is impeccable. Charlie comes off a bit too Gumpish, but I’ll ignore that, too. She does magic with the source material. These stories might not rate without her.

Narrator brought story to life

I like how fun and mischief this series is!! Charlie bird likes to find and solve problems. Great series

Pretty good YA story

This was very much like YA true blood story. Just that southern modern fantasy town.

Listen for the narrator...

Keep listening for the story. Birdy (Don't call me that!) has always been the 'small town oddball' with the talent noone understood. After the death of her beloved parents, she takes off for a year on her father's old motorcycle to find others like herself and hopefully learn how to manage it.

Sailing back into the town she loves, no matter that she was an outcast to all but a small circle of friends, she is happy to be back. But all is not well in town. Dirty politics, secrets and lies, and of course, murder, are changing things, and not always for the good.

Humor, excitement, heartbreaking answers, all wrapped up in a magical small southern town lead to a 3 book series that kept me listening.

Recommended.

Great characters

paranormal relationships of all sorts & animal familiars
familiars magical gadgets & conveyances
& can't wait to hear more from these awesome characters

Worth the read but I’m glad they were free 🤷🏼‍♀️

First the narrator is amazing. I can see how some said it takes a few mins to get used to her but I love her.
The story line is good but…it’s not consistent. Without giving anything away…this will be fun🤦🏼‍♀️😂 Apparently things can happen to some and not others…. And others can’t get involved but get to, then get in trouble for doing nothing…just to do it again. Then…they get to make stupid decisions when they shouldn’t🤦🏼‍♀️🤯
It’s still a fun book. Just be prepared to wanna jump in the book & b!tc% smack someone. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Fun, Sassy, Paranormal, Whodunit!

I absolutely loved this series! Each story is exciting and fun with twists and turns throughout. You enjoy each of the characters and love watching the develop. The setting is just cozy and you can’t get enough of the hometown feel. Everything is better with Honeysuckle Tea!

Love!

Finally!! A super cute story where a girl eats!! I love romance books but hate that lots fetishize how "tiny" the MC is. This book is definitely a fantastic listen!

Fan

Love the series and can’t wait to see what happens with Charlie and Mason.
The characters are funny, serious and sometimes you get angry at some of them, for not listening to Charlie.
Now for the next book.

entertaining

I really enjoyed this trio, they were light, fun, entertaining. the characters are all memorable and the reader did an incredible job bringing them to life and giving them personality. I am hoping there will be a 4th and a continuation of the story. I am rooting for the shape shifter!
