About this listen

Bay Winchester is having a tough week.

As the local editor of Hemlock Cove's only newspaper, she just happens to be present when a body is found in an area corn maze. To make matters worse, the police believe the murder may have something to do with the occult.

This wouldn't be a problem for a normal reporter, but since Bay is descended from a well-known line of actual witches, the town is understandably on edge.

Between the suspicious townspeople, the befuddled police presence and that random hot biker guy that may or may not have something to do with the murder -- Bay has her hands full.

When you add the typical family problems, multiplying ghosts -- and one monster of a zit that she's sure came from her aunt's curse -- Bay is just struggling to make it through the week.

Of course, when the killer sets his sights on Bay, things could get a whole lot worse.

Note: These books are full of sarcasm and are a little bit snarky -- so read only if you like to laugh and you aren't easily offended. This is the first book in the Wicked Witches of the Midwest mystery series.

This was a fun, quick, and enjoyable story

This book is the first in the series Wicked Witches of the Midwest, by Amanda M. Lee, Published December 12th 2012 by Winchester Shaw Publications. Narrated by Aris.

The genre of this book is paranormal, modern detective, fantasy and magic. Which are all my favorites.

This is a story of the Winchester family, a family of witches that consists of an old aunt (don’t let that fool you, she is quit handful), three middle aged sisters, each one has a daughter (three cousins). Bay Winchester is working as the local editor of Hemlock Cove’s only newspaper, while her two cousins Clove and Thistle work in a shop. A murder happens in the town, and Bay feels she can be in benefit in more than one way, with the help of her family, the town’s sheriff, and a biker, she will solve this case.

This was a fun, quick, and enjoyable story, once I started it was hard to leave it (I ended up listening to it in one day). I do, however, have to admit the setting had some big holes in it that left me wondering. The whole town knows that there is a family of witches, and all they do is gaze uncomfortably at them?? Or what kind of sheriff asks the local witch to accompany him to the crime scene?? Yet I felt that the characters were real and believable enough, they were likable. I mean it’s a family of seven women, their bickering and fighting made sense to me (as I’m living in four women family so I know). Although they weren’t as deep as I would have liked. The events were told by the narrative rather than shown, and while the story was fast paced and fun, the characters were kind of predictable and (there wasn’t a lot of events there to start with), interesting, but somehow kind of dull.

The narrator Aris did an excellent job with the story, I mostly enjoyed the bickering of the girls, she made it very fun and realistic at the same time, each character had its own accent and tone. Her voice gave the action parts more realism and made them far more interesting than reading. Needless to say I will be looking forward to listen to the second book, and I think I will be finishing this series.

overall it was good!

I think this was a pretty good book, although I thought she spent a little too much time in the beginning describing how many rooms were in the house and what they looked like. That would have been fine if there were a situation that called for a description, like a scene in those rooms , but it was not relevant to the story. Otherwise I was happy with the story, and loved the fact that the narrator gave the characters different voices!

Fun Story, Narration not so great.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, the story was fun and I loved the bantering within the different generations.

What did you like best about this story?

Aunt Tillie. She is the Matriarch and don't you forget it. She was a lot of fun and added a bit of color to the book.

Would you be willing to try another one of Aris’s performances?

Not intentionally. I had thought that Valley Girls went out in the eighties, apparently I was wrong. She also went too fast and when I tried to slow the reading it didn't sound proper. At one point you could tell she was blocking her nose to get an effect. It wasn't very well done.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not really. it was a fun story

Couldn’t finish the Audible.

The story seems like it will be interesting, but I did not enjoy the Audible actress for this book. I paid for the Audible version as well as the kindle, because I like to listen in the car and at work. However, the actress read too fast and did not change her voice for the characters. This made it very hard to follow along without being confused on who was suppose to be speaking. Will try to read the kindle version when I have time.
