Patti Larsen
About me, huh? Well, my official bio reads like this: Patti Larsen is a multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in her head. But that sounds so freaking formal, doesn’t it? I’m a storyteller who hears character's demands so loudly I have to write them down. I love the idea of sports even though sports hate me. I’ve dabbled in everything from improv theater to film making and writing TV shows, singing in an all girl band to running my own hair salon.But always, always, writing books calls me home.I’ve had my sights set on world literary domination for a while now. Which means getting my books out there, to you, my darling readers. It’s the coolest thing ever, this job of mine, being able to tell stories I love, only to see them all shiny and happy in your hands... thank you for reading.As for the rest of it, I’m short (permanent), slightly round (changeable) and blonde (for ever and ever). I love to talk one on one about the deepest topics and can’t seem to stop seeing the big picture. I happily live on Prince Edward Island, Canada, home to Anne of Green Gables and the most beautiful red beaches in the world, with my pug overlord and overlady, six lazy cats and Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is my first read by Ms. Larsen. I liked it very much. I am reading Family Magic now. This story has it all magic, witchcraft, comedy. The characters are easy to like and interesting. There is even a talking demon cat. A different take on the witch genre.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Even if you have not yet been introduced to the Hayle coven family, you will appreciate this quick read.I did read Family Magic, the first book, before this, so I had a good idea of the family dynamics, but if you've ever ben or known a teenaged girl, you are good to go.The Coven tried to mind their own business and live harmoniously with all other life forms.Still, things happen and more often than desired they need to uproot and find new places to live.Sydlynn happens to be the only 16 year old girl in the coven, so has no true best friend other than her cat, Sassafras. Sass happens not to really be a cat, but you will read about that.Other than having the gifts of several kinds of magic, Syd and her family have fairly normal dynamics. A Grandmother whose thinking is not as clear as in her younger days, a father who can't be around as much as they wish, a younger sister Syd loves but who is not a substitute for friends her own age. Then there is Syd's mother, who happens to be the coven leader. This focuses all eyes on their family and everything they do.All Syd wants to do is make friends and live a normal life. She is not interested in magic, but being part of her natural makeup, her wishes are not making an impact on that.They move to a new town and Syd decides that she is old enough to take on a summer job.As fate would have it, she is rejected from many before she finds an opportunity.Oh - and there is a connection between the house she lives in and the person who offers her a job.This was a fun read for magic lovers of all ages.I recommend it to cozy fans, friendly witchraft and paranormal fans, those who enjoy quirky characters from small towns and coming of age stories.This novella is a perfect vacation read and a wonderful introduction to a series I know you will want to read from the very beginning.
