Charms and Firearms is the 5th Book in the Mitzy Moon series by Trixie Silvertale.<br />I have really enjoyed the first 4 books in the series. I listened to the audbook by <a href="https://goodreads.com/author/show/1431054.Coleen_Marlo" title="Coleen Marlo" rel="noopener">Coleen Marlo</a> and she really brings the characters to life! <br /><br />I absolutely love the characters in this book, especially Mitzi's ghostma and Piwackett the cat. <br /><br />Mitzi comes across another body while away and she heads back to the bookstore to get help from her friends to discover one of them missing! <br /><br />Mitzi has her hands filled with magic, romance and mystery.<br /><br />The story was well written and the mystery was fantastic. I laughed out loud and like I said I really enjoyed the narrator! <br /><br />Can't wait for the next book!

Another hilarious adventure with Mitzy Moon. This series is so much fun to read. The characters have big personalities and you can’t help but like them. The mystery is well crafted, fast paced, and full of surprises. I don’t want to spoil anything but there might just a new relationship in Mitzy’s life. <br /><br />I listened to the audio version. The narrator does a fantastic job bring the story and the characters to life. You never have to guess which characters is speaking. She is great at showing all the emotions each character is feeling. <br /><br /><br />All thoughts and opinions are my own, and in no way have I been influenced by anyone.

<strong>This author never dissapoints!</strong><br /><br />Another humorous and fast paced adventure with one of my favorite sleuths! The characters are all great and I am reattached to them all. I really can't wait until the next book in the Mitzy Moon Mysteries!?

I really enjoyed this cozy mystery about a young woman who believes she has no family but finds herself the heir to her grandmother’s fortune, including a bookstore in the great white north. Not only does she need to adjust to a climate completely foreign to her native Arizona, she also finds her grandmother’s ghost is still a resident of the store and adjacent penthouse.<br /><br />This is not the first book in the series but I had no trouble settling into the small town with its quirky characters and zero wind chill. I love stories with a bit of magic involved and this one fit the bill. <br /><br />Overall, this was a cute and funny novel with plenty of surprises to hold my attention. A quick read, but a good one.

ok, so at first it took me a minute to like the snarky attitude that is Mizty Moon. After a bit I did finally fall into the thrall of this Cozy Mystery. I will definitely be listening/ or reading more. this was the first book I have read/ listened to in the series. Can't wait to find out what happens in the first 4 books!

Our snarky heroine with a quick wit and running dialogue, mostly in her head, is back in the middle of a murder when she once again falls into surprising snow bank. Creative characters draw you in and keep you chuckling as you once again fall prey to this author's writing and stay up way past your bedtime in order to finish the book! I can't wait to see what antics Mitzy and crew get into in the next book! FYI: If you are into audiobooks, this is an outstanding choice as the narrator does a positively wonderful job of bringing these creative characters to life!

I love this series so much. Every book is so interesting! In this one we learn more about Silas, who I find fascinating. I love Mitzy. I find her flirtations with Sheriff Erick Harper fun. Grams is funny and loving but Silas is the mystery guy. This book he plays a larger role and I’m loving it. He has intrigued me since I met him. I love his lessons to Mitzy. They are always interesting. In this book, though, we get to see more of his personality and wizard skills. Rory is back and Mitzy gets her eyes opened. We meet some new characters too. Brandy who owns a ski resort and a gypsy Anita Nowak who has a connection to Grams. This book is a page turner! There is a lot going on, including a murder and a theft. I can’t wait for the next book! <br />This book is perfect for those cozy mysteries lovers who enjoy a bit of paranormal. There is a ghost and lots of magic. If this is your cup of tea, then you need to read this series! While each book can be read alone, I would strongly suggest you read them in order. Mitzy has a lot of personal growth and you would miss all the ties that bind. It is all background story but I think knowing how it all unfolds is important to the series. It’s also a lot of fun. <br />I was given an ecopy of this book for review consideration. I reviewed the book voluntarily. My opinions are based on my feelings as I was reading.

I have read every book in this series thus far, and I have to say, I think it does get better each time. Not only do we get to know the characters' personalities better, but the story arcs are more engaging too. <br /><br />What I appreciated about this book was Mitzy's character was not only expanding on her abilities, but she was really starting to become more self-sufficient. I mean, I think she will always need guidance from her ghost-ma and Silas, but I think she is starting to figure out the whole adulting thing. ? <br /><br />I also loved that this book had not only a captivating plot, but it was deeper than some of the others in this series, and it allowed the reader to become more invested. I think this book started something that will continue into the next book, and it definitely left me wanting more. <br /><br />Overall, even though these books could be read as standalones since the author does a good job of interjecting backstory into each book, I would definitely suggest reading them in order. I think that the story does build on each installment, and takes the reader for a riveting ride.

2020 bk 212. Mitzy is back. This book has a number of subplots going, a theft at the bookstore, Rory attempting to up his game with a weekend trip to a cross-country ski resort, mental illness rares its ugly head and the murder of one photojournalist has Mitzy and the Sheriff stumped. When Rory's true colors are revealed, Mitzy flies into action, putting herself in danger and Rory on notice. I believe I enjoyed this one the best of Silvertale's books thus far.
