52.
Author: Madelyn Alt
Title: The Trouble with Magic
Publication: Paperback
Pages: 261 pages
Genre: Mystery
Acquisition: LT Recommendation by LibraryHag
Date Completed: July 5, 2010
Rating: 4.5 stars out of 5

Ok, so LibraryHag didn't recommend this particular book, but she recently read the third (I think) in the series, and after reading about how much fun she had with it I decided to scoop up the first for a little fluff to pad all the work-related reading I'm wading through. And boy, it was fun!

Alt's cozy mystery really spoke to my own beliefs and interests, and she had me giggling or pursing my lips in all the right places. The Trouble with Magic is a bit clumsy at times, but it's nothing that you wouldn't find in any first-in-a-series book. I loved the characters, found the narrative to be well-paced, and had a grand old time. I'll certainly be looking for the rest of the series!
