About this listen
So here’s the deal—I’m a magical disaster. A witch from a family of witches and the only one whose magic blows up in her face. Which is why I came up with my rules:
- Never get involved with magic.
- If you must get involved, do not enter a competition to win the biggest magical fortune in England.
- And definitely don't fall for Callan Hawthorne, the sexy billionaire mage who you've hated for years.
So how the heck do I end up in a situation that promises to break all those rules? It's the only way to save Seaside Spells, my family’s magical potion shop.
But it’s cool. When I go back home to Charming Cove—a village of ancient pubs and foulmouthed familiars—I will totally ignore Witch Weekly’s sexiest man of the year. I’ll win the competition, and if I’m lucky, I won’t turn myself into a toad in the process.
This'll be fine. It’ll all be fine.
Riiiight.
The Modern Girl’s Guide to Magic is a fun, frothy romantic comedy full of laughter, love, and magical hijinks. It’s the first in a series of stand-alone romances set in the seaside village of Charming Cove.

cute story, terrible accent
The story is nice enough, fairly predictable, low stakes, cosy and easy to follow. Unfortunately the accent put on by the narrator ruined the listening experience.

I really wanted to like it.
It was all a bit meh. I battled through and at times I thought we were moving towards a good story but it always fell flat. Understandably the story arc is set to continue but I don’t see me following along.

Story Is ‘meh’ Narration is awful!
The story is very Mills and Boon in structure, very predictable, but No interesting twists to the narrative. Characters are also no well fleshed- out.
But as supernatural romance goes, it’s ok.
The narration is really weird. The narrator sounds as though she’s American but trying and failing to get a British accent right! It’s very jarring, and ultimately completely distracts from the story.

Predictable, but still very enjoyable (:
While I do agree that the endong of this book is predictable (i.e. I could tell the ending by the end of Chapter 4ish), I still really enjoyed it! Sometimes, I just want an easy listening story, and I thought this book delivered very nicely. I really liked both the MCs,
I just wish that more of the story focused on the MCs and that the side characters remained more as side characters. I think too many things were easily overcome because family/friend could offer an answers/solution immediately - but there is no reason (imo) that the MCs wouldn't have been able to come up with solutions themselves.
The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the narration - the narrator had a clearly fake accent which did get a bit annoying at times.

The whimsical nature and the connection with nature drew me in. This is a book I will be recommending to all who ask!
