This is a cozy mystery with a magic touch.
We start jumping into a car conversation. I love this kind of beginning—poking into the characters' lives in such a private moment as an argument is. As an outsider, feeling a bit lost at first, but getting to understand their dynamics.
In this particular case, the couple is a sister and her brother. Their relationship is not ideal, but one calls for help, the other one jumps—that's the thing about siblings, right?
Following their footsteps into a magic village (the brother knows it, although the sister doesn't), they get right into a murder scene!
From that moment on, the pace slows down. I think it tries to be intriguing about what kind of being each new character is, as the sister is oblivious to everything, but as a fantasy reader, it's easy to figure out, and it felt a little bit dull.
It was an easy and interesting read, though. I enjoyed the path to discovery, but most of all I enjoyed the development of the siblings' relationship.
So...
Would you like to be turned into a cat?
