#NewBookSaturday: Slouch Witch (The Lazy Girl's Guide To Magic) Book 1 by Helen Harper
August 26, 2017Happy New Book Saturday! I'm going down a different path today, and I've selected a book about witches. Witches are not a usual preference for books for me, but I was drawn to this book by the title. I mean, come on, "Slouch Witch - The Lazy Girl's Guide to Magic" ~ who wouldn't want to read that? I feel like it could be a funny version of Harry Potter if Harry were a teenage girl and she enjoyed hanging out and watching Netflix rather than getting up to mischief under the guise of helping others and solving mysteries.
So far, it's been doing well on the Amazon charts and already has over 300 reviews averaging 4.8 stars out of 5.
Anyway, I'll let you make your own mind up. Here it is, "Slouch Witch"...
Let's get one thing straight - Ivy Wilde is not a heroine. In fact, she's probably the last witch in the world who you'd call if you needed a magical helping hand. If it were down to Ivy, she'd spend all day every day on her sofa where she could watch TV, munch junk food and talk to her feline familiar to her heart's content.
However, when a bureaucratic disaster ends up with Ivy as the victim of a case of mistaken identity, she's yanked very unwillingly into Arcane Branch, the investigative department of the Hallowed Order of Magical Enlightenment. Her problems are quadrupled when a valuable object is stolen right from under the Order's noses.
It doesn't exactly help that she's been magically bound to Adeptus Exemptus Raphael Winter. He might have piercing sapphire eyes and a body which a cover model would be proud of but, as far as Ivy's concerned, he's a walking advertisement for the joyless perils of too much witch-work.
And if he makes her go to the gym again, she's definitely going to turn him into a frog.
