Southern Magic

Sweet Tea Witch Mysteries, Book 1

De: Amy Boyles

Narrado por: Hollis McCarthy

It only takes a second for life to go to heck-in-a-hand-basket!

In less than 24 hours, Pepper Dunn loses her job, her boyfriend, and her home. It's the worst day of her life. But when Pepper discovers she’s a witch and has inherited the most important store in the magical town of Magnolia Cove, Alabama, she’s as happy as a pig in mud.

Too bad the shop is a familiar pet store, and Pepper doesn’t like animals - not even a teensy bit. Determined to sell the shop and get the heck out of town, Pepper’s plans go haywire when a local store owner winds up dead and Pepper gets accused of murder.

Thrust into a magical mystery, Pepper teams up with a mysterious private detective and a cat so traumatized by the murder that she’s not talking - and that cat could hold the key to Pepper’s innocence.

Now Pepper must avoid trouble, solve the mystery, and placate her new grandmother, who keeps a strict curfew that’s enforced by the talking end of her shotgun.

Sounds like a simple day in the life - as if. Can Pepper solve the mystery, or will she become the next victim of the Magnolia Cove murderer? And most importantly, will Pepper learn to love the animals she’s in charge of?

sweet tea taste good

Narrator doesn’t fit.

The narrator sounded like a grandmother reading the part of a young woman. The voice doesn’t fit the story.

Not the right narrator

First, the book itself is pretty good. I like the concept of though there were a few things that came across a little odd about being distant from the family. But as a first book in the series it is okay to leave a little mystery for the next books.

My real issue with this audio book is the narrator. this is a wonderful narrator who has a lot of range and does a good job with voice change but the main character of this book is supposed to be 25 years old and from the first word you know that this is an older woman performing. it makes it really difficult to listen to and remember how young the person is supposed to be. It just doesn't work. wonderful narrator just not appropriate for a 25 year old character as the main character

Surprisingly good

I don't remember how I ended up with this book but it's in my library so I listened to it. It was a fresh take on the story of someone who discovers their abilities late in life. It was a great view from the southern perspective which has a lot of different wording and euphemisms the way they talk. I lived in the South for many years and I was raised in the north so the two are different. Granted that was 20 years ago so I don't know what it's like now with everybody moving all over the country in the world as to how much it's changed. However, Southerners have their own way of saying things and this book captures it perfectly. It's a good story that could keep you guessing all the way to the end on who did it and why they did it. Some of the questions we don't get answered and maybe they'll get answered in book two.. let's see what happens.

Time to relax 😊😊😊😴

Loved this book. It's light, funny, entertaining with a great mic of mystery and fun!
