I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Grimoires and Gingerbread by Danielle Garrett hit all the right spots. I was looking for a short and fun story and it delivered.

This was my first experience with the author, and I plan to repeat it. When I picked this one up, I assumed it was the first book in the Sugar Shack Witch Mystery series. However, as I delved deeper into the story, I discovered it was the second book. -+ Fortunately, the details provided made it easy to follow the story.

I enjoyed meeting the characters. Rosella aka Ella proved a force to reckon with. Smart, independent, strong and brave.

Orion sounds like a player, but I could be wrong. Despite this, I liked the role he played in the story. He seems genuinely interested in Ella. One will have to watch and see what will come of their association. He and Ella worked well together in saving Christmas and protecting Santa’s secrets.

This story rekindled memories of the Christmas movies, featuring Santa and his elves, I would binge watch on Lifetime and Hallmark.

Narration
Amanda Ronconi narrated. It was my first time listening to her and what a delightful experience. Her tone pulled me into the story and had me visualising every scene. She brought the characters and the story to life and made it easy to distinguish between each of their voices.

I had a wonderful time with this story and would definitely recommend to fans of paranormal cozy mysteries. This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
