That being said, I love her voice for Katie and the spellbook ladies so I will continue to listen on audio. But when a meeting of the Club is interrupted by a stranger collapsing on the floor of her shop, mumbling something about a voodoo talisman, Katie drops everything to begin investigating. I don't know what it is but it just doesn't sound manly enough for me. For magical baker Katie Lightfoot, the only way to beat the Savannah summer heat is to whip up some cool treats for the Honeybee Bakerys patrons.

That end scene was fantastic!Audio Thoughts:Narrated By Amy Rubinate / Length: 7 hrs and 59 minsI love Amy's narration of this series for every single person but Steve (I even like Connel's voice). They are at their strongest when figuring out stuff together. However, it is the "book club" working together that shines the most. The case was a twisty one and while I figured out parts there was one little bit that I didn't. This time out I loved that we got to touch a bit more into voodoo and learn more about Cookie. Katie is a great leading lady: smart, funny, and surrounded by a great cast of characters.
