The Witching Moon Manor by Stacy SivinskiMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I was provided an ARC of this book via Netgalley, all opinions are my own.
This was such a cozy return to the Quigley house! I loved the first book when my book club read it several months ago, and I was very excited to see that there was a second book coming out to expand the sister's world. I would recommend reading the first book before diving in as it explains the magic system and the talents each of the sisters possess.
This book finds the sisters reunited after having split up to pursue their own talents. Violet is back from flying high at the circus, though an accident has shaken her. Beatrix is back from her latest book tour, but she is struggling to write despite having a talent for words. Anne as usual has mounting responsibilities, but she is struggling with running the tea shop and working for the council. Now back together the sisters can lean on each other, but they are all a bit ashamed of their faults and hesitant to talk about what is bothering them. Anne must enlist the help of her sisters if she is going to save the city, as they helped her with her last mission and it is only when they work as a team and embrace their talents that they find success.
I really enjoyed this cozy magical mystery. I love the character development we get from each of the sisters as they work together and independently to solve the mystery. I also liked that the author brought back Mr. Crowley and his unfinished task back into play. We learn more about his story and relationship with Philip as well as learn more about their families. Each sister has to go on a self-discovery journey, but their paths all circle back to the same central place. It really brought things full circle and I really enjoyed being back in the manor with them.
I really loved this book and the series as a whole. It was perfectly cozy and magical!
