I’ve read all the books before this one (with a small exception but that doesn’t matter), and I think this might be my favorite of them all. Mia is dealing with a new boss, a new employee, 3 engagement parties, an upcoming exam, and just so many other things when there’s another murder, but this time the body is found in the woods behind Trent’s house. Poor Mia is really put through the wringer in this one. I love how we say many sides of her, and how she balances everything with humor if not much grace. There are some interesting future plotlines scattered throughout this, and I’m ready for the next one. Well-written, engaging, and a great addition to the series. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

Thank you NetGalley and Kensington Publishing Corp. for the opportunity to read "Seven Secret Spellcasters" in exchange for my honest opinion.
This is the 7th book in the Kitchen Witch Mysteries and it was so worth waiting for! Ms. Cahoon crafted an interesting book that I read in one sitting because I couldn't stop turning the pages. The plot was interesting and continued on themes from previous books from the series.
Mia Malone who owns her own catering company Mia's Morsels was preparing for her testing and when she tested the highest of any kitchen witch ever, she started getting a lot of attention (and pressure) to join the coven.
Mr. Darcy has been lonely since Dorian left his body. Trent Majors' (Mia's boyfriend and owner of Majors Grocery) has a new Maltese named Cerby who Mr. Darcy likes but Cerby has his own "pet" a dragon named Buddy.
Everyone is preparing for Christina and Levi's engagement party, Halloween and Mary Alice Carpenter (Grans) engagement party. In the middle of this of course, Mia gets involved in a murder. Why was Trent being investigated by the coven. It's known that he gave up his powers to Levi.
There is a new person at the lodge Blake Sandburg who has some secret going on. There are several new people to meet in this story. Including a new relative, a new employee of Abigail's named Finley Shiley. As Mia loves to collect waifs and strays, Finn soon ends up living at the schoolhouse. We learn more about Gloria and how she came to be in Mia's possession. Another interesting piece is learning how many people are actually part of the coven that Mia didn't even know about.
The story was set up to end with trouble brewing so hopefully there will be another new addition to the series soon. This book is definitely deserving of more than 5 stars!

It is almost Halloween, and the families and businesses of Magic Springs, Idaho, are gearing up for the celebrations. For trainee kitchen witch Mia Malone, it is always a busy time of year, but it seems as if everything is happening at once! She has a new boss at the Lodge, her first witch exams to study for, her grans is about to get engaged, and all while Mia’s boyfriend Trent and his familiar, Cerby are being investigated by the National Office of Magical Creatures! When a body is found behind Trent's home, local police chief Mark Baldwin asks Mia to help with the witchy side of the investigation! Juggling the victim’s clandestine assignations, a new friend for Cerby who just happens to be a dragon, her studying, and two engagement parties means Mia has her work cut out for her. If she can't save Trent, then who can?
I was able to read an advanced copy of this thanks to NetGalley and the publishers, Kensington Publishing, Kensington Cosies, but the opinions expressed are my own. Book 7 in this brilliant series was a wonderful read, and I loved it. There is such a lot going on, not all of which is sorted, that I can't wait for book 8. Mia is one of my favourite cosy crime protagonists, and this is easy to highly recommended.

This is probably my favorite book in the series. Mia is coming into her own as a witch and is getting ready for her test. Cerby got bored in training camp and brought a dragon to life as a friend. And a leprechaun who was sent to investigate Cerby and Trent has been found dead on Trent's property. A great addition to the series.

I love the Kitchen Witch series from Lynn Cahoon and Seven Secret Spellcasters SO much. The 7th and newest of the series, brings us to Mia's certification as a witch and shifting of power. The anticipation of her testing isn't the only thing that has her in a sweat! She is discovering that many around her are witches too which makes life a little easier, but naturally other things arrive to make up for that. Cerby, the adorable Maltese, got lonely at familiar camp, so he called/created a friend just as the National Office of Magical Creatures sends someone to investigate the unusual circumstances of his arrival. It helps that his dragon buddy is little, at least for now! It doesn't help that a body is found on Trent's property.
Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Cozies for allowing me to read and share my enjoyment of Seven Secret Spellcasters. It is a joy to bring Lynn Cahoon's books to the attention of my friends and followers. Loved it, loved it, loved it!

Loved reading this book and really enjoy the series. Looking forward to more books in this series can't wait.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading about Mia and her adventures. I haven't read her previous books in this series so it was a little difficult to follow all the relationships but still enjoyed the paranormal mystery especially Buddy. Would definitely recommend but reading the series from the beginning is probably best. I received an e-book from NetGalley in return for an unbiased review.

This is a fun cozy mystery. It’s a quick read, but reading previous books in the series definitely makes sense of all the characters. It was an easy, quick read.

A fun read, but helps to read others in the series to understand the dynamics of the household. Mia and her grandmother and the rest can be a bit confusing without background. Still though, I enjoyed it and would recommend this one.

Oh my gosh, I loved this book! Mia is such a great character and her relationships with her friends and family really shine in this book.
I enjoyed everything about this story, especially Buddy, who made me laugh out loud. #SevenSecretSpellcasters is by far my favorite in this series.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for selecting me to read an advanced copy of this book.
