Fun Snarky Cozy Witch Mystery Series

The mystery, snarky, sass continues in this really fun YA cozy sketchy mystery. This book starts out with Zara and her boyfriend the detective (newly created vampire) investigating a new murder with the body being found this time in the library, and there's a new black fox shifter in town. The narration is perfect and so entertaining that it kept me up late (actually early into the morning hours) to finish it.

** Quick parental warning - 17+ readers, this story has some sexual attraction, the relationship has heated up, there are plenty of insinuations. Although, there are no sex scenes due to the "door" being closed pretty quickly and is kept very clean.

A NEW CELEBRITY GHOST IN TOWN

The lovely Angela Pepper emailed me with my audio code, but told me “No rush to listen/review. Take your time. It will be a couple of months before book 11 comes out.” Oh, right… that’s like saying, “here’s this lovely chocolate cheesecake, but you don’t have to eat it right away. No worries. Any time is fine.” Wisteria ALWAYS moves to the top of my what-am-I-listening-to-next. I pounced on this and I’ll worry about when I’ll see another slice of cheesecake (another Wisteria witch) later.

WISHFUL WISTERIA is the tenth book in the Wisteria Witches series. Though each could probably stand alone, I recommend them all so why not read them in the order of release.

Since my fiancé loves those ghost-hunting type of shows, this story gave me even more of a chuckle. I could imagine any number of the semi-empathic, drama-driven divas descending on the Wisteria Library just for a chance to exploit the newest ghost in town.

Zara’s family situation becomes more complicated, but it opens the door for more experiences in the Wisteria World.

I love all of the different types of characters – witches, shifters, sprites, trolls, etc. – making for a colorful cast and exciting life in a magical town.

Putting this to the top of my TBR list was not a mistake. As always, spending time in Wisteria is a joy that makes the drive time fly (and my desire to leave the car & enter the workplace even harder than usual). In a perfect world, there would be enough Wisteria books to have a new audiobook every week – after all I have a lot of commute to cover!

Narration: Tiffany Williams did another beautiful job creating the Wisteria world. She is the voice of Zinnia, Zara, Zoey, Frank, and the rest of my favorite characters.

Note: While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.

Another exciting installment in the Zara saga.....

Wishful Wisteria is the tenth book in the Wisteria Witches Series, and I think it is best enjoyed as part of the series, since so many of the themes and characters flow from one book to the next. Each time I finish one of Angela Pepper's Wisteria books, I think that she can't possibly keep the series fresh and exciting the further she goes, but she proves me wrong every time. I have really enjoyed the last couple books, since Zara was working with the sheriff of Wisteria to solve various crimes, so I was sad that we don't get too see much of him in this book. However, plenty of Zara's eccentric and zany cohorts assist her as she tries to solve the mysterious death of a library patron whose dead body Zara discovers and whose ghost begins haunting her library. As with all of the books in the series, Wishful Wisteria combines the perfect level of snarky comedy from Zara, intriguing mystery and delightful paranormal shenanigans. I especially enjoy seeing how Zara's once lonely life is now packed full of good friends and family, and the love of a delightfully sexy vampire sheriff.

Tiffany Williams narrates all the books in this series, and she is an amazing narrator. I can't imagine anyone more suited to both Angela Pepper's witty dialogue and Zara exuberant personality. Williams differentiates extremely well between characters, her performance is flawless, and she makes an already exciting story even more fun as an audiobook.

I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

ZARA

Zara doesn't try to be an annoying witch. She just is.
I like all the characters except Zara. if the target group is teens, then Zara should have been a teen. She is more than immature and it's extremely annoying. However, I'm 10 plus book deep now so....

I love all these books, they are so entertaining! Both funny and heartwarming. However, this was the first time I actually laughed out loud. At work, while listening to the audible book. 😂

Replete with Riveting Riddle Revelations

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
After the bombshell dropped at the end of the last book, time moves forward and the Riddle women are both dealing with the recent the changes in their lives, positive and negative.
We’ve gotten to know a lot more of the mysteries of Wisteria and the Riddle family but there are more secrets unfolding. Zara is surrounded by supernatural family and friends
This volume is packed with the characteristic humor, heart and haunting mysteries that the series is known for. You will be chortling with laughter, gasping at twists and have your heart warmed by reunions and new relationships formed. We see more overlap between the different series seen in Wisteria including some welcome new additions. This volume ends on a very positive note and one feels the series drawing to a close. Not yet. This is not the epic conclusion but it does make me already miss my visits to this small community full of witches, ghosts, shapeshifters, sprites and more.
Tiffany Williams is back and once again elevates narration beyond merely reading to giving a lively performance that brings each characters unique voice to life.
Highly recommend to anyone who is a fan of Wisteria.

Wishful Wisteria

Things get turned upside down in Wisteria. Zara is not sure who is a friend or foe. Especially when a newly discovered young witch, that overpowers Zara. And a few new paranormals come out to Zara. Which is so exciting finally getting to the bottom of if they are or are not. For me this series never gets old or boring. I love each new adventure this crew goes on each book has something new and exciting. Fantastic narration.

Entertaining, as usual

I enjoy this series and had the opportunity to listen to this book.
In this story we learn Harry Blackwell is the original builder of the Jazzy Pumpkin, Zara’s car, has a twin, and passes in his sleep in the library. His ghost brings tons of out-of-town ghost hunters.

Why won’t Harry pass over? How can Zara help him? Read and find out. Fast paced, zany story. Learn more about Zara, Petunia Rose and her father. This spends more time on the personal side of Zara’s life but there is a mystery in there.

Looking forward to the next installment.
The narrator does a wonderful job!!!!!
