"Evenings in Aunt Jo’s garden always felt so enchanting. She made it a point to have the string lights lit for family dinners, and hints of water sounds serenely filled the background. No one knew how she did it, but the babbling sounds from the river deep behind the house always soothed each person at the table."

A cozy read for all ages

Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2023

Verified Purchase

I read “An Air of Deceit” along with my nine-year-old, and although I got more out of it than he did it was a great family read. The book is very cozy, helping us both get into the spirit of the fall season as the leaves turn colors and we start getting the jackets out for the walk down to school. The author’s descriptions of different foods are mouth-watering, and as a fan of other “magical” books I really appreciated the author’s ability to keep the characters grounded in reality while showing off their elemental powers.

Great read! Great intro to all the characters, can’t wait for the next one in the series.

A good story with the potential of being great

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2024

Verified Purchase

I liked this first book of the series and looking forward to the next one. This story felt like we were making it up as we go. For some that is enough, but for me, I need the story to be complete and yet move forward with each subsequent action. Yes, it sounds like the same thing to me as well and THAT is why I am not an accomplished story teller. There is a distinct difference and I don't have the words to tell you how. I just know this could have been a story that can set fires in imagination, so the potential is there. Perhaps the next book will have that revelation. I do, however recommend this book and I know that others will like it far more than I have.

A Spellbinding Cozy Mystery with Enchanting Twists and Heartwarming Magic

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2023

"An Air Of Deceit (A Hollow's Glenn Coven Mystery Book 1)" captivated me from the very first page and took me on an enchanting journey through a world brimming with mystery, magic, and familial bonds.

Autumn's seemingly ordinary life takes a riveting turn after an ominous dream and the sudden loss of her Gran. What unfolds is a mesmerizing tale that weaves together the cozy vibes of a small mountain town with an intriguing mystery that kept me turning pages late into the night.

What sets this book apart is its unique blend of Sherlock-esque mystery intertwined with the magical essence reminiscent of the warmth found in "Good Witch." The author brilliantly crafts a world where elemental magic, a captivating coven forming, and a newfound feline companion converge, painting a vivid picture of an extraordinary yet relatable world.

I particularly relished the cozy atmosphere of the paper shop, which felt like a warm embrace, and the captivating camaraderie between Autumn and her cousin. The addition of baked goods and delightful food descriptions sprinkled throughout added a delicious layer to the narrative, making it a perfect bedtime story that fueled both my imagination and appetite.

The author's highly imaginative storytelling skillfully wove together unexpected twists, keeping me on the edge of my seat while the mysterious mountain town provided the ideal backdrop for this magical tale. The inclusion of the older witches in the family, their wisdom, and the evolving dynamics within the coven added depth and richness to the story.

I was charmed by the recurring appearances of the newfound cat familiar, adding a whimsical touch to the narrative. Moreover, the inclusion of tea recipes in each section was a delightful and interactive addition, enhancing the reading experience in a unique and delightful way.

In summary, "An Air Of Deceit" is a magical and mysterious journey that will enchant anyone seeking a cozy, heartwarming read. With its blend of captivating storytelling, charming characters, and a hint of the mystical, this book is an absolute delight for those craving a blend of magic, mystery, and familial bonds. I eagerly await the next installment in this captivating series!

Well-Written Paranormal Cozy Narrated by Author

Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2024

This audiobook is unusual in that the author is actually the narrator. While I've listened to many nonfiction audiobooks where the author narrates, I think this might be the first fiction audiobook with the author as narrator. She has a girlish voice, which sometimes seemed at odds with the story, but I just like it, in general, when the author narrates her or his own work. This is a delicious paranormal cozy mystery. I've read and listened to a fair amount of paranormal cozies, and for once, I actually get the sense that perhaps the author is actually a practicing pagan or knows one. How she effortlessly integrates the paranormal aspects as if they are truly woven into the lives of the magical people seems holistic and realistic. Like any good cozy mystery, it has a fantastic group of secondary characters, including some delightfully witchy women. The book also has solid mystery chops, which can sometimes be a little lacking in cozies. In particular, I liked how this book has blind alleys and red herrings that make mysteries so fascinating to read as you and the characters try to figure out “who-dun-it.” If you enjoy well-written paranormal cozy mysteries as I do, you will probably enjoy this book as much as I did. Highly recommended.

I received a promo code for this audiobook, but that did not affect my review.

Magical new series

An Air of Deceit is book #1 in the Hollow's Glenn Coven Mystery series by Kristen King.

I really enjoyed this book. The pace was good which isn’t always the case in the first book of a series. Autumn and Simone are well-developed, likable characters. I was drawn in to the story right away and it kept my interest throughout. I look forward to reading future books in this series.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Magical but still very relatable

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2023

This was an enthralling read into a world filled with witches, magic, and elemental powers. Although it is a fantasy read, the author did a great job of making Autumn and other magical characters in the book still very relatable. I really enjoyed the tea sections with incantation instructions as I thought that was a very unique aspect to include in an entertaining read. I would definitely love to read more from this author. Very well written!
