There's a New Witch in Town
Welcome to Holiday Hills, where the coffee’s fresh and there’s magic in the air…
I have the perfect life. I recently rented the most adorable little apartment on top of my favorite bookstore/coffee shop on Main Street in Holiday Hills, the charmingest of charming small southern towns. I spend my days ghostwriting a cozy mystery series for a well-known author, and maybe just a minute or two crushing on the town’s police chief. But of course, I’d never let that cat out of the bag. I'm still reeling from my recent divorce, and no matter what my bestie says, I'm so not ready for anything in the romance department.
Speaking of cats, my little Burmese, Cooper, follows me around like he’s my guard dog. Thankfully, Holiday Hills is animal friendly. Everyone’s got a cat or dog, and that crazy old woman on the back end of town had the funniest talking parrot.
Oh, that crazy old woman, she was a local celebrity, which was often trouble for her daughter. How do I know? Because that’s me. I was the crazy old woman’s daughter.
The good news is everyone loved my mother, including me. The bad news is she recently died, and when she did, she opened a whole new world for me, one I’d always thought was fictional.
The magical world.
Now I have witchy powers, a talking cat, and a knack for finding dead bodies in my quaint little town.
Ones that haven't died by accident.
My name is Abby Odell and I’m a witch.
Who knew? I sure didn’t. Thanks for that, Mom.

Yet, none were successful in their quest to defeat her. The witch seemed to possess an otherworldly strength that defied all attempts at destruction.

Until then, they were left to bear the burden of their enchanted malicious witch, forever locked in a battle between good and evil..
Reviews for "Tales of Dread and Wonder: Legendary Encounters with the Enchanted Malicious Witch"
1. Lisa - 2 stars - I really didn't enjoy "Enchanted malicious witch". The storyline felt forced and predictable, and the characters lacked depth. The writing style was also quite basic, and I found it difficult to immerse myself in the story. Overall, I was disappointed and wouldn't recommend this book to others who are looking for a captivating and well-developed fantasy novel.
2. John - 1 star - I was really excited to read "Enchanted malicious witch" based on the synopsis, but unfortunately, it fell flat for me. The plot was convoluted and confusing, with many loose ends that were never resolved. The characters were one-dimensional, and I couldn't connect with any of them. Additionally, the writing was riddled with grammatical errors and awkward phrasing. I couldn't wait to finish this book and move on to something better.
3. Emma - 2 stars - "Enchanted malicious witch" had so much potential, but it failed to deliver. The world-building was weak, and I couldn't fully understand the magical elements or the rules of the universe. The pacing was also off, with slow sections that dragged on and on. The dialogue felt unnatural and forced, making it difficult for me to connect with the characters on any level. Overall, this book was a letdown, and I struggled to finish it.
