Much A’Broom About Nothing by Erin Johnson

Hello my cozy friends,

Today I am reviewing "Much A’Broom About Nothing" the first instalment in Erin Johnson's new Paranormal Magical Renaissance Faire Mysteries.

Trapped in a magical Renaissance Faire and accused of murder. Huzzah!

When Adelaide “Laidey” Ryan dragged herself off the couch for a date at the Renaissance Faire, she didn’t expect to run into her cheating ex-fiancé. The day only gets better when she winds up trapped on the magical grounds and discovers she’s a witch. And the best part? She’s charged with a homicide she didn’t commit.

With the “help” of a snarky talking cat, this former Pilates teacher will have to wade through a turkey-leg sized list of suspects to find the real killer, all while juggling her new job as a broom maker’s apprentice. Despite her troubles, there’s a dashingly handsome pirate captain who has her heart aflutter. But time is running out on her sleuthing, and the lazy sheriff is eager to march her to the gallows.

Can Laidey catch the murderer, or will her snooping make her Faire game for the killer?

Much A’Broom About Nothing is the first book in the humorous paranormal cozy series, Magical Renaissance Faire Mysteries. If you like snarky heroines, twisty mysteries, and a hint of romance, you’ll love curling up with Erin Johnson’s charming whodunit.

I loved this first instalment, set in a cursed Renaissance Faire, I found it to be super fun, humorous and Adelaide "Laidey" and her talking cat Mort are delightful and I loved Tom. Like I have said with respect to her other books Erin is very talented in her descriptive writing and because of this your pulled into the story right away. I read in about 4 hours.

There were plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing on who the culprit was. Overall this was a great paranormal cozy and I hope there will be plenty more to come.

I highly recommend this series to all my friends.
