About this listen

A familiar is a life-long companion. Choose wisely.

It's hard being the youngest in a family of witches known for their power. It's even harder when that magical power has all but passed you by. Still, I was doing okay for myself. I like to think I was proving to the rest of my family that magic wasn't a requirement to living.

Then Aunt Opal became the prime suspect in a murder investigation. Wouldn't you know it would happen right when everyone else in the family but me was out of town.

Now it's up to me to prove her innocence, and a little magic could go a long way in helping me do that. My aunt's been after me to get a familiar for quite a while now. They are known for helping a witch channel her power and even strengthen it.

So, want to or not, allergies or not, I did it. I went to an animal shelter and found my familiar. A cute little black kitty. The allergy medicine companies were going to love me. But for some reason, this little guy didn't make me sneeze. Kind of weird, actually. Not that I was complaining.

I just really wish I'd known more about him before I did the binding spell....

So cute

The narrator 's voice was on the annoying side but perfect for the characters and story. This is a really cute and fun cosy mystery. The mystery itself wasn't a big surprise but the over story was fun enough anyway. Don't expect much from the romance as it's more of a concept rather than actuality, but there is potential there ( in future books)
A great start to the series and I will probably read the rest too.

Great story

Enjoyed reading ‘All too Familiar’ found by chance and so pleased I read. Story continues so am going to look for next book. Narrator was great and story was interesting and kept me engaged and wanting to know what would happen next.

Easy reading

Easy to listen to, good characters and as always a puzzling murder mystery to solve.

An unusual twist

I liked this book. It was an unusual take on the witch and her familiar which was fun but a few things annoyed which meant not a five star review. The fact that every man who enters her orbit is in love with the main character and they are all swoon worthy, it just gets annoying. The other thing is the ending felt rushed, as though the author just decided she was done and that was it. Even through the mystery did get wrapped up it kind of felt like there was questions left unanswered. It probably continues on into the next book, especially as we know what Amie will be investigating next. I liked the plot idea of the familiar not being what she thought and that was the part I enjoyed most. The characters were like able but again didn't really explain the animosity between her and her aunt. The mystery was okay but the author used up all the twists on the familiar. I would probably get the next book just to see what happens but I am not rushing out to get it.
Being the only one in the family not to have powers is hard, so is being allergic to animals. So when a witch from another coven is killed hours after arguing with her Aunt, Amie decides its time to try harder. To finally help her powers emerge she tries finding herself a familiar that won't make her sneeze all the time. An oddly attentive black cat catches her eye. Has she finally found an animal that she isn't allergic too? More importantly will he help her clear her aunt of the murder? Unfortunately things don't go as expected and the whole family is put in danger.
I like the narrator. She was a big reason I gave this book a chance in the first place because I knew with her reading the story of was going to be entertaining.
