Purrfect Magic

Whisker Witchcraft, Book 1

By: Samantha Coville

Narrated by: Jeannette Smith

Magic is one thing. Three balls of fluff and fur are a completely different story.

The prestigious and highly selective Jourdemayne Academy of Witchcraft only accepts 25 new students every year. But Harper Bishop has been virtually guaranteed her acceptance to the magic academy since the day she was born. One of the many perks of being the daughter of two legendary Warlocks.

But attending the academy was never her dream. Magic, quite frankly, bores Harper out of her goddamn mind. She wants to get out, see the world, experience life in all its glory. Passing on the school isn't an option, however. So she arrives for her first day and begins the countdown to freedom.

Until three tiny kittens start speaking to her telepathically.

Which isn't normal, even for witches.

Now it's not just surviving boring spell classes that Harper has to worry about. Something evil and powerful is coming to the Academy and only Harper and her magical kittens can stop it before it destroys everything in its path. What's the worst that could happen?

Cute cozy YA paranormal mystery

Purrfect Magic is the first in a new paranormal cozy mystery series. Harper Bishop is the daughter of two famous warlocks but she does not really want much to do with magic. Her parent’s position got her a position at the prestigious Jourdemayne Academy magical school. Her goal is to coast through her three years at the academy and then move on to her own life. In the middle of her first term she comes across three fluffy white kittens who turn out to be mystical beings protecting the academy. Strange things start happening and Harper gets drawn into a deadly mystery that could destroy the school.

This was a cute, enjoyable YA listen. The story is interesting with twists and turns but could have been much more fleshed out to give more details. At 3 ½ hours the audiobook is a short listen that had plenty of room for development. Harper’s character was very self-absorbed and really rather unlikeable. She did redeem herself by the end of the book and I would expect she will develop in future books. The kittens were funny and their ancient being voices were a fun contrast to the image of little furry kittens.

Jeannette Smith did a good job with the narration. She voiced each character as individuals and had a pleasant voice to listen to.

Overall, I enjoyed listening to this quick story.
