Another paranormal cozy mystery with a cat so that Ghostly Paws had a few parallels with the witches baking show series. The main character, Willa, has returned home to Mystic Notch, a small town in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. A former crime journalist, she now runs a bookstore. An accident has given her a bad leg and the ability to talk to ghosts including the recently murdered town librarian. Willa is also realizing her cat, Pandora, may be more than just a cat. There was a bit of a love interest between Willa and the investigating officer. So, a bit predictable but it IS a cozy mystery. I think the goal is to create a comfortable little corner of the world with likable and characters and Dobbs has managed to do that. I may try the next one but after a few other books get crossed off the list. (

Kind of silly, not the best written book, but a good quick read. The romance seemed rather stilted and it wasn't the most believable throughout, but I'm not sorry I read it. (

It was by no means a Nobel prize winner, but it served a good purpose...a book with an animal on the cover or an animal in the story. It had both. I'm not a cozy mystery enthusiast, but a mystery with a cat, or any other animal for that matter...can't be all bad. The main drawback was that the main character is portrayed as an idiot wandering around a New Hampshire town and almost getting herself killed, only to be saved by the magical intervention of her cat which had more brains than she did...and whose "magic" she refuses to believe in. UHM...she sees ghost, hears her cat speaking to her...but doesn't believe in magic??? In spite of this...the cat was cute...the book served a useful purpose...and I liked the title...so 3 stars. (

A quick read, but quite fun, especially for cat lovers! A bit of Lillian Braun with the mystery solving cats, but these guys are much more talented :)

And yes, there's some magic stuff in there, but the story is more about solving the mystery (with the help of a little magic) in Mystic Notch where Wilhelmina Chance has moved into a home inherited from her grandmother. Apparently the first in a series... will probably read the next when available. (

I am enjoying this series by Leighann Dobbs a bit more than the Lexi Baker. Could be subject matter, cats and books rather than dogs and pastries :-) Also this is the second time reading this series this year so it will be duplicated in my challenge.
