This is a great new urban fantasy by a proven author. Radford brings magic into suburbia with this novel.

I didn't want to like Daffy but this mother, witch, wife kicked butt.  I loved her for what she did in the end.  This a a fast past story with a lot of heart.  Characters that are written well but the writer shows that they have room to grow.  Storyline is well written with a ending that makes you hope for another book along the way

<i>A Spoonful of Magic</i> is a disappointing read.  The poofs of magic are more easily understood than the main characters and far more likable.  The story showed some promise with a plot that was at times intriguing and some interesting lesser characters, but ultimately the bizarre choices Radford has made about morality in her magical world are just too hard to swallow.
