Publisher's Summary

'Tis the season for magical mayhem. Leigh vows upon her magic desk and witch's broom that Thankshanukkamas will be filled with childlike joy for her, her family, and her friends - even if it kills them. And it may just come to that! With a new publishing contract in hand, the disaster pieces fly from Leigh's desk. With titles like Sleighing the Elfa - The Elf Pack Book 1, Restoring the Old Schlitt House - A "Do Yourself" Romance, Fangin' the Billion-were, and Gangin' the Billion-were, the mischief piles up.

When the EPA (Elf Protection Agency) shows up at Leigh's door, she's got some explaining to do. Throw in a couple of retired mobsters, Fur-Con, bats in the belfry, and a shape-shifting witch and you've got a recipe for catastrophe. Can Leigh and the gang save the fate of all paranormals? Or will this be the end of the line for Leigh and her band of magical misfits?

More hilarious fun with Leigh and friends. As always, the plot has more twists and tangents than you can keep track of, and the zany characters keep on coming. This one throws in the "Holidays" for extra fun and puns. Not to worry, it's an easy read/listen start to finish, and it will have you giggling despite yourself.

Excellent

Thanksgiving is going to be joyful if she has anything to say or do about it. This is full of mayhem and laughter to the end. Good narration brought the story to life as you can imagine what is going on. Given audio for my voluntary review

Now I’m part of the family!

I’m so glad I kept going in this series. Laughing at furries, escaped turkeys, broken penises! Was book keeps getting better.

Thank you so much for keeping entertained with all of Leigh’s antics. Such a great series I’m happy to keep going!!

Love it

Another great book full of hijinks and laughter. Holly does a great job with the narration and Melanie does a great job making you feel like you were there with Leigh and her group of friends.

Best narration

So I listened to these books just because Hollie Jackson is so good. I don’t really like Leigh. I like the other characters though and gertie especially. The stories are ok and sometimes a little funny, nothing super amazing but not bad either.

As this storyline continues we get to know the characters so much more and I fall in love with them a lot more. This is a lighthearted fun book. With a fantastic performance from Hollie.
