Publisher's summary

Magic exists, Josy sucks at it, and now her cat won't stop talking.

Seventeen-year-old Josy Barrows thinks she’s an orphan.

So, when opportunity knocks in the form of an address and a plane ticket from a mystery aunt, Josy jumps at the chance to start a new life with her black cat, Nine.

Fast forward.

There’s no aunt, no house...just a weird junk shop in a dark alley.

And a strange owner with a cryptic message who hurries Josy to the back of the shop.

Into a world she never knew existed.

Josy finds herself enrolled at the hidden Spellcaster Academy...with a now talking cat.

With no friends and no magical abilities, Josy can’t stay at the academy if her hot, Enchantment 101 student-tutor, Aspen Rivers keeps refusing to help her pass.

Just when things couldn’t get worse, she may have discovered dark secrets about the academy....

Secrets which could lead to a worse fate than expulsion...one that threatens both the side of magic and the regular world she grew up in.

You won’t be disappointed

I really enjoyed this book so far so good. Although, it was a bit short or maybe because it was that good that I finished to quick. Anyways, the story had me from the beginning and I was left wanting more. Can’t wait for the next installment to be available on audiobook. You won’t be disappointed.

interesting stort and characters.

This was a great YA story with interesting characters and an interesting take on magic. I loved the talking cat, the helpful teacher and the handsome boyfriend. I can't wait to see what happens next! The narrator did a great job and was easy to listen to.

Thoroughly enjoyable

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audiobook. I felt like I was drawn into the book and didn’t want to put it down. The narrator does a superb job of bringing each character to life.

The start of a unique and wonderful Y/A paranormal

Reviewer: Teresa Fallen Angel

Summary:
Josy Barrows has had a difficult life. First loosing her parents, but her Grandmother was there for her until she became sick leaving Josy to care for her. Now all on her own with only her memories and her cat Nine on a trip to find her Aunt Olivia. Now finding her was nearly impossible, but what Josy finds will change everything she ever knew. You see Olivia isn’t a person, but a password to a world she never expected. You see Josy is admitted into Borealis Academy of the Magical Arts.

This is Josy’s first step into a world she never expected or knew about. This is just the beginning of Josy learning about her past and the dangers inherit in her new world.

This was an incredible saga the likes only seen in the Hogwarts world. Josy finds new friends, enemies, and what her place is in the magical world. I for one can’t wait to see what happens next. I thought the ebook was good, but the audiobook brings the story alive for the reader in ways only an audiofile can.

Great start

This is the first book in the Spellcaster Academy series and boy oh boy are you in for a funny ride. Josy and Aspen are great, and if you want to know who Aspen is you will have to listen to the story to find out just how sarcastically funny he can be while keeping Josy out of trouble. The narrator does such a great job with all of the characters
