Book Review: Slouch Witch (The Lazy Girl's Guide to Magic #1)

Slouch Witch (The Lazy Girl's Guide to Magic, #1) 

Slouch Witch

Helen Harper

Overall: 4/5

Plot and themes: 4/5

Characters: 5/5

Writing style: 4/5

Attention-grabbing: 5/5

I'm back at it again with another Helen Harper series and this one really didn't disappoint. It follows Ivy Wilde, a witch who has left the Order where nearly every other witch of any consequence ends up in favor of being a taxi driver. She's lazy and she doesn't really care who knows it because it's practically a hobby for her. When she's dragged back into the Order because of a paperwork issue, she's forced to actually do some work and solve a mystery that could end up destroying the organization she hates so much. 

Okay I lived for the characters in this book. Ivy was hilarious, Winter was funny but also serious, and Brutus was the star of the show. These books are seriously addictive and I don't have much to say only because I've accidentally read them all now. The one disappointing element of this book particularly was how complicated the mystery tried to be without really adding up to much. But honestly I'm here for the characters and the magic which was fantastic and very fun. 

10/10 would recommend, I took a star away from it for the plot being a little weak but honestly the characters are amazing. I was reading this at like 2am and laughing out loud so if you want a book to take your mind off life this will definitely be the one for you.
