Review of The Cat Stole Your Tome By Jeannie Wycherley

 

I want to welcome Jeannie Wycherley to Books R Us. Jeannie is the author of "The Cat Stole Your Tome," A paranormal cozy fantasy mystery. Thanks for Stopping by.

 

About The Book:

Without Zilla, there'd be no witches zooming around on their broomsticks and nobody would be allowed an exotic animal as a familiar. She grants permits for a living. Okay, it's not riveting stuff but it's important .

The day a cute but pushy pussycat arrives at her apartment complex, so does a grotty old journal full of blank pages. Until now Zilla has enjoyed a simple her clean, quiet apartment; a couple of potted plants that she struggles to keep alive. She's not an exceptional woman. She doesn't have many friends. She's never owned a pet … and she most certainly does not want a cat.

But now her life is upended. Responding to her touch, the ragged journal slowly offers up its contents, revealing an ancient grimoire full of secrets … including the historic murder of a young boy.

Determined to reunite the grimoire—and the cat—with their rightful owner, Zilla begins investigating but it isn’t long before she ruffles a few feathers and finds herself in grave danger. Can she awaken hidden traits from deep within herself. Resilience? Curiosity? Courage?

Because, in order to survive longer than her pot plants, she’s going to need all of those and more!
 

 

 My Thoughts:

"The Cat Stole Your Tome" is a fantasy paranormal mystery that features a great cast of characters, adding depth to the plot. Although the book starts off slowly, it gains momentum as you continue reading. The protagonist, Zilla, lives a boring life selling permits for broomsticks, but when an enchanted grimoire and a cat arrive on her doorstep, her life changes, and she sets out on a quest to solve a mystery.

The author, known for writing numerous works, introduces this as the first installment in a new series that is quirky, spooky, fun, and magical. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, The Spookiest of Spooks: Ghastly Grimoires Book 2.

I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

 

About The Author: 

 

Genre-hopping introvert and word witch living somewhere between
the forest and the sea in East Devon, UK.

Jeannie finds inspiration everywhere: myths, stories and songs, people watching, a word here, a look there, but mainly in the landscape. Devon has it all - rocky coast, pebble and sandy beaches, winding lanes and picture perfect cottages, cliffs and forest.

A good day for Jeannie means a blustery wind, racing waves and salty rain. She lives with her husband and two dogs, make a lot of soup, plays too many computer games and loves watching movies.

“A darkly Gothic romp through a dense and sinister world with the compelling and mysterious Jack Townson.” — Laurell K. Hamilton, New York Times Bestselling Author of Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter

Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble / iBooks / Kobo

EXCERPT:

“They want a fight,” Townson growls, his voice steady but burning with conviction, “so we’ll give them one— but not

because we crave revenge!” His face contorts with emotion, locking eyes with his people. “Not because we thirst for blood!”

He raises a talon high into the air, his black claws curling into a fist with a loud, menacing crack. “But because we are family, and we stand together against any foe!”

Tears well in the eyes of many in the crowd, stirred by a fierce mix of fear and inspiration.

“BECAUSE WE ARE ALL DEGENERATES!” His voice erupts, a flash of fury in his eyes, as a supernatural wind howls from his aura. “WANTED BY NONE—” he roars, his words shaking the room, “AT HOME WITH EACH OTHER!”
