ASIN: B08X1XWNRBIt’s a new month in Monroe Cove and magic is in the air.
So is the smell of freshly baked goods as the town prepares for its annual spring bake-off. Cassie’s best friend is a top contender, and Cassie is there to lend a hand. But then, everything starts going wrong, from a ruined mixer to a clogged garbage disposal. It’s as if Penny’s Bakery is cursed.
Now that Cassie is starting to feel more at home at Crooked Windows Inn, and with her magic, she’s determined to help her friend out.
Is it a curse or just a case of bad luck?
When a body turns up at the back of the bakery, the whole town is in uproar. And with so many new faces mulling about, there is no saying who could be the culprit!
With the help of a quirky cat, a handsome handyman, and a meddling aunt, Cassie will do whatever it takes to make sure her friend isn’t next on the killer’s list.

Two Can Witch the Game by Valia Lind is the second book in the Crooked Windows Inn Cozy Witch Mystery series. Being a tad over 100 pages, I read this book in one sitting.
Because it was so short, I wish there was more. I think the plot could have been fleshed out more with extra details. There was a lot of build-up in the beginning only for everything to wrap up within the second to last chapter. This isn’t a bad thing, but I prefer it be stretched out longer.
Overall, the characters were fun to revisit and it was nice to be back in the setting. It’s a solid cozy read and fun for a couple of hours.
Rating: 4/5 Coffee Cups
