When the Crow's Away by Auralee Wallace

 When the Crow's Away by Auralee Wallace, 291 pages

This visit to Evenfall finds Brynn Warren attempting to corral the recently deceased Mort Sweete long to solve the mystery of his murder.

The first book was so good, and the second only continued to get better.  It was interesting to see how life with magic worked, since in the first book Brynn largely tried to ignore it. I was truly enjoying this book it drove off a cliff and left us hanging for a book three that may or may not be forthcoming. 

In the Company of Witches by Auralee Wallace

In the Company of Witches by Auralee Wallace, 330 pages

From the MARC: "When a guest dies in the B&B she helps her aunts run, a young witch must rely on some good old-fashioned investigating to clear her aunt's name in this magical and charming cozy mystery."

Cozy mysteries are some of my very favorite reads to curl up with! I found Wallace's witching world of Evenfall delightfully enjoyable. The characters are strange in an endearing way without being cloying or cookie cutter.  If you're looking for an enchanting palate cleanser between heavier reads, In the Company of Witches just might fit the bill
