My Nails and My Book Review - That Olde White Magick by Sharon Pape

**NetGalley**

Title: That Olde White Magick

Series: Abracadabra Mystery #2

Author: Sharon Pape

Goodreads Summary: It’s time to work her crime-solving magic again . . .

Kailyn Wilde enjoys running her shop, Abracadabra, in the quaint New York hamlet of New Camel, where she lives with her six cats. Her family’s been here for centuries, and she’d like to keep up the tradition. But the place may never be the same if a big hotel gets built, so she does her civic duty and attends a town meeting along with her aunt Tilly . . . and Merlin. Yes, that Merlin—though he gets introduced to folks as her “distant English cousin.” The wizard is pretty grumpy about being transported here, but there are things about the modern world he doesn’t mind—like pizza.

Kailyn was prepared for a heated debate about the hotel, but she wasn’t expecting murder. When Tilly finds the body of a board member outside the schoolhouse, Kailyn doesn’t want any suspicion cast on the wrong person. She plans to crack this case, even if she has to talk to every living soul in town—plus a few departed ones . . 

My Review: **I voluntarily read this ARC**

I had a lot of fun reading this one. I absolutely love the characters, especially Merlin. The mystery was really good, and the reveal was suspenseful with a dash of humor at the end.

My Manicure: Pretty magick sparkles were the inspiration for this manicure. I started out with Zoya Aspen. It looks so much like snow that I had to keep telling myself not to grab a snowflake image. I actually had a snow manicure completely planned out before I remembered what I was supposed to be doing. Oops. The sparklies were done with Bundle Monster H14 and So Metal.
