super fun

aside from I kept wishing for a more masculine voice for the male characters the rest was great
entertainment

slow going

the story overall was ok, i had a hard time paying attention but i finished the story, this is in part to the narrator talking so slowly i just had a hard time listening.

Just ok

This is a different story on how a woman comes to realize who she really is and learns to embrace what she really is and how she comes to terms with it - it's not a bad story...it's just different.

just meh

couldn't finish listening to this book. not sure if it was the narration or story.

New Twist on a Familiar Creature

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend it to someone who likes stories about witches and werewolves and magic, yes. It's not the kind of genre I usually listen to but I ended up liking the idea of it well enough that I might listen to the next one in the series if it's available. Also the main character is really sweet and smart and sometimes funny. It's a fantasy story, but with people who are like real people.

What did you like best about this story?

I like the idea of what kind of creature Elle and her boyfriend actually are. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but to me it was a new idea. I liked it. I also liked the tenderness of the big love/sex scene. It was sexy but it was really about how the main character felt, not just body parts moving around. Lastly, it takes place in Scotland so there's Scottish accents and that was fun.

What does Francesca Townes bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

There's a lot of scenes where characters do a lot of talking back and forth and this narrator made that come alive like plot and story rather than just talking. This is the third one of this narrator's books I've reviewed. I like her a lot. I enjoy how she does characters, even men.

What a nice concept

This story is so much more than your average witch story. A nice concept for a new series. The narrator did an excellent job of distinguish between the characters. I highly recommend this audiobook. I'm anxiously waiting for the next installment.

Nice

Wonderfully narrated. Enjoyable and full of humor. Nice beginning to a promising supernatural and paranormal series.

That's Not A Scottish Accent

The narrator is not good at accents. Also, the story line is very annoying. They won't just tell her what's going on!

Very poorly written

Repetitive beyond belief. Story bogs at the beginning and never recovers. Dialogue is childish, can’t move the story forward. Needs a story editor.

Narration was fine, after a rocky start. She couldn’t cover the bad writing.

I So-Very-Much Wanted to Like This

Sadly, I was just so-very disappointed. Honestly, I couldn't even finish "Witchy Business: The Witch Detectives, Book 1" by Eve Paludin and Stuart Sharp. The writing and story are mediocre; the narrator Francesca Townes is irritating.
I wouldn't waste a credit and thankfully, I didn't. Since "Witchy Business" was an Audible Escape selection, my disappointment was tempered by ease of return.
