Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter by Heather Fawcett- Publishes 2/17/26

 


This was such a great story especially if you love cats!  There were so many wonderful little touches that will draw you in.  From the magical oven that bakes pastries at midnight, intelligent characters willing to do whatever it takes to save others, and cats who steal the show; this is a fantastic, wonderful book filled with magic, action, and a little romance.  


Agnes is a woman in her 30s who is grieving the loss of her partner and has now dedicated her life to saving cats.  She runs a cat shelter and is desperate to find a new home.  When a shop she can actually affords comes up she jumps at the chance to rent it.  However she finds out that a magician named Havelock is using her shelter as a front so that he stays hidden from the police.  Havelock is a world famous magician who almost ended the world. Agnes would be ok with this until one day another magician shows up and almost destroys her shelter and the cats in her quest to find a magical book.  Agnes is determined to do whatever it takes to find this book and destroy it so that everyone she loves will be safe. 


This book was a unique blend of heart warming characters, magic, and action.  I really hope that there are more books to come as I truly loved all of these characters and the cats.

The Amalfi Curse by Sarah Penner

  Witches, magic, the sea, kidnapping, murder, and romance, what more could you ask for in a novel! I thoroughly enjoyed this dual timeline novel that takes place on the Amalfi Coast in the early 1800s and present day. Mari is a streghe or sea witch in Positano. Mari and other women from her village use the power of the sea to protect their village and help them be prosperous. The only problem is Mari hates the sea and wants to leave her village. The sea took her mother and sister and she no longer wants any part of it. She has a plan to escape and find happiness when things go horribly wrong. In the present day, Haven is an underwater archaeologist. She has been exploring sunken ships since she was a little kid with her father. Before her father's death he thought he found a big find that might include treasure. Haven is determined to continue his legacy and find that treasure. What she does not expect is that bad weather will derail her plans and she will be thrown on course to s...

Dark Sisters by Kristi DeMeester

This book was very dark.  It was well written and read quickly but the story to me was deeply upsetting.  It was told from three different perspectives from three different time periods.  The first was the 1700s and focused on a mother, Anne, and her daughter Florence.   Anne is being threatened as a witch and needs to leave their town.  She lies to convince her daughter to come with her and they settle in a new area with a tree that seems magical .  All seems well until her daughter finds out the truth. The second was in the 1950s and focused on Mary a young mother.   Mary wants more than being just a stay at home mother and the life that is laid out for her is not the one she wants.  The third was the point of view of Camilla in 2007.  She is raised in a strict home destined to just be a wife and mother.    In all three time periods the women had to be subservient to their men or risk catching a disease or possibly ...
