⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5

Harper Sullivan is settling in to running her great aunts bookshop Spellbooks. She has reconnected with an old friend, met a cute Druid, and is now learning to run a sentient bookstore. After the magical issue that happened at opening and Vivienne Silverthorne basically threatening to kick her out of something like that happens again, Harper is trying to be on her best behavior. All she wants to do is enjoy Havenwood and all the Halloween festivals. But when magical pranks start happening Harper has to figure out what is happening before the tourists start to realize it’s not fake. The only way to save Havenwood, its residents, and herself is to solve the mystery. 

This was a cute second book. I enjoy a good Halloween/fall themed book and this hit is. The mystery was fun and cute. I love all the new little characters that show up. Ignatius for one is probably my new favorite. The pranks were fun and silly. I enjoyed how it ended and can’t wait to read the next one. I am not sure how I feel about the possibility of two suitors but I am open to it. Overall a cute fun book to read for the month of October.
