About this listen
Sella is tired of being a failure.
She has a lovely, cozy shop—an heirloom from her mother—, a snarky feline familiar, and one, single friend to call her own. It should be enough. But Sella’s magical abilities left a stain on her hometown, and even years away didn’t repair her reputation. The life of a kitchen witch is rough when everyone thinks Sella’s magical blends of coffee and tea will leave them with boils instead of the intended “motivation” or “self-compassion.”
But when a murder shakes the town and Sella’s best friend becomes suspect one, failure is a luxury they can’t afford. Luckily, the murdered woman—a confident ghost with a fiery determination for justice—is ready to help… and she’s more than Sella ever bargained for. With her friends, her familiar, and a bit of magic, Sella is ready to prove herself once and for all.
Although, perhaps she should brew a strong cup of “courage” first.
Just in case.

Cozy Fantasy is my new favourite genre.
This was such a fun, cozy, magical read.
It had all the vibes of Ellery Adams, but with potions as well as premeditated murder.
I loved the found family, the diversity of characters (different species, different sexualities, different classes) the small town vibes, and the cat, especially. Is there anything better than a snarky feline familiar?
My two beefs about this book, were the unanswered questions about shifter Lorna and Sella's mom, which I assume will be dealt with in future books, and the abrupt jump from Untrustworthy Kitchen Witch to Super-Sleuth. Considering Sella didn't actually solve anything, she's got some work to do. Also: I hope her new role doesn't detract from her store, because I want MORE KITCHEN WITCHEN.
I'm definitely interested in where the author takes Sella (and Beejee!) in the future.
As for the narration, Norbury was fantastic. This was my first experience with her work, and I'm hoping it won't be my last.
