Book Review: Seven-Year Witch by Angela M. Sanders is a charming cozy paranormal mystery filled with small-town secrets, a magical library, and an endearing cat familiar. The second book in the Witch Way Librarian series follows Josie Way as she continues learning how to balance her role as Wilfred, Oregon’s librarian with her growing magical abilities. With cozy mystery appeal, light supernatural elements, and a warm cast of characters, this novel is a good fit for fans of magical mysteries, the Good Witch TV show, Lynn Cahoon, and Bailey Cates. While some plot elements feel lighter than expected, Josie’s gradual growth and the inviting small-town setting keep the story engaging.
