What Reader's are Saying
What the Hex
What the Hex was a quick read but a fun cozy mystery. It is book 3 in the series but there is still plenty of new action and adventure. Holly stumbles upon a dead man, who has clearly been murdered. Holly being Holly, isn't going to leave the investigations to the local police. In comes loveable Doris and Holly and Doris again work together. Holly is led to believe everything she thought was incorrect and doesn't know what or who to trust anymore. A great story where we learn more about some of the locals and get to know some new characters.
What the Hex
Wow, this was so full of twists and turns and things I just did not expect. This book did not end as expected and as much as I enjoyed the first two in the series this one was very unexpected. Holly found out a lot of things about herself some real some not, I definitely recommend this as a very good read. I would say to read the first two and then this one as it can be confusing if you haven't read the first two. Once I started reading I could not put it down. I have given this review freely and in my own words. I had an ARC copy of this book.
Wild Ghost Chase
Wild Ghost Chase is so fun and hilariously entertaining. I love this series and this book might just be my favourite one yet. I highly recommend it!
Give up the Ghost
I love Audrey! The characters are great. I can't wait to read more and see where these latest developments go in her PI business and personal life.
Give Up the Ghost
I loved Give Up the Ghost. This book is so fun and interesting. The characters are relatable and interesting. I really enjoyed the character interactions and humorous conversations. The mystery is well-developed and has many twists to keep you guessing. Give Up the Ghost is a wonderful book.
Witch Way to Beauty & the Beach
In this latest, Harper along with Archie discovers the body of a local teen. What follows is the usual mix of romance, fun, and sleuthing. Finally, finally, we see some resolution to Harper’s love life. Yay!
Give Up The Ghost
Another wonderful book by Author Jane Hinchey.
The character of Audrey is so awesome.
I am loving reading this series. Can't wait to read the next one.
I highly recommend reading this series of books...
Witch Way Down Under
I love this world and the characters in it.
Ghost Detective Series
I read this whole series and loved them! The characters were great!
What the Hex
Good story with strong characters, mystery, murder, humor, and a little romance. Satisfying ending with a promise of more to come. Very enjoyable.
Witch Way to Secrets & Sorcery
I really enjoyed this story and the twists it had. The characters are all great and make me laugh with their antics.
Ghost Mortem
This was a great start to a great new adventure. Audrey is very relatable. I laughed several times and felt like I was in that world. I can't wait for more and to see Audrey's journey into becoming a PI!
What the Hex
Holly and her friends are back with more adventures. A crime is committed before the town’s treasure hunt begins. Can Holly, Doris, and Flynn solve the case before the police? Can Holly find out more about her own mystery?
Which way to Murder and Mayhem
I absolutely loved it. Twists and turns a little magic. Couldn’t put it down had to finish it. Thanks so much
Which Way Collection
Again another amazing series with great storytelling and characters all of Jane's books are amazing, highly recommend.
A Ghost Of A Chance
I love reading about the character of Audrey.
And this is another wonderful book in this series. Loved reading and highly recommend reading this wonderful series of books...
Witch Way Down Under
I just love cozy paranormals, and this series is so much fun! Harper, Jenna, Archie, Gran, etc. are in Australia this time around to find out what’s up with Harper’s parents, and there is much mayhem. I love these characters and how much fun they have with each other.
Witch Way to Romance & Ruin
The second book in this series. I loved revisiting Harper and Gran.
And Gran being accused of murdering another witch. I am totally hooked on this series.
I loved reading this book.
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
It's hard enough for Audrey to meet her future in-laws for the first time without having a ghost appear and her start talking to it. But her in-laws are great, and they go looking for the body of the ghost and then get involved in solving her murder. Audrey is her usual clumsy self, and, as usual, the ghost is very little help. Great characters, so laugh-aloud moments, and a well-plotted mystery.
All in vein
Great story characters hope there will be more as I couldn't put the book down
Who Ghost There
This time Audrey is eyeballs deep in ghosts and mayhem. And Thor is on a diet?!? Plus... there's a hunky new neighbor. I think this may be my favorite mystery so far.
What the Hex
Holly is doing her best to lay low and stay off the radar, but people are not making it easy. A treasure hunt brings tourists into town as well as a friend of Doris’. Who can Holly trust?
This is such a fun series and this was the best book yet. I liked learning more about Flynn’s pre-rat life. Holly, Doris, and Calder are wonderful characters. I love the characters’ names. The murder investigation not only led to the killer but gave us more information about Holly. Can’t wait for the next book!
I received an advanced reader copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
the Ghost Detective Mysteries Boxed Sets
I am so in love with Audrey! This is my favorite series by this author, and I hope she writes hundreds of books in the series!
Wild Ghost Chase
I just love Audrey because she embraces her flaws and doesn’t let that slow her down. I also love how supportive Kade is, how supportive her friends are, and her lovable sidekicks round out the wonderful characters.
What the Hex
Love this book! Holly Day and Doris really get in over their heads in this one.
Battle Of The Hexes
I was so glad to see this second book in the series that I dived right in to see just what Holly is up to now. She’s still in hiding, but a murder has her knee-deep in solving another case with her as one of the suspects at first. I just love Holly and Doris’s friendship. They make such an interesting duo going around trying to solve the crime. Add in the other interesting characters in town (Howie Vasive!! LOL!), and this is such a fun series.
Ghost Detective Series
All the books in this series are absolutely amazing highly recommend them. Brilliant storytelling brilliant characters just brilliant.
What the Hex
Just wow!
Funny, full of action, turns, and twists all the way! Holly, Doris, and Flynn are amazing characters... Loved it and I just couldn't put it down! I would recommend that you read the previous books in the series first though...
What the Hex
Holly and Doris are at it again. This is such a fun cozy mystery with lots of humor, suspense, and some twists. Several parts made me laugh out loud and I adore the character names. They are a hoot. The chemistry between Holly and Calder heats up throughout the book, which fills me with glee. This is such an enjoyable book and series that I can’t wait until the next installment.
Witch Way to Death & Destruction
This is the best one yet! Demons are on the loose, Harper might be a Whitelight witch, there are some new players in town, and Jackson is acting in an unusual way. What else could possibly go wrong? This was a great ride from beginning to end with all the characters giving the reader a great time.
Witch Way Down Under
I really loved reading this book. Harper goes to Australia in search of her missing parents.
This book is filled with action and suspense. Couldn't put it down. Kept reading to see what happened next. Wonderful book...
Fur the Hex of it
Having already read this book as part of a collection I enjoyed reading it again very much. I have a couple of books that I read over and over every few years since childhood and I think this could become one of them. I am a fan of Holly Day now and looking forward to the next book in the series. This book is full of excitement and some laugh-out-loud pieces too. If you like good cozy mysteries I recommend you read this the first book in a new series. My Amazon and bookbub reviews are shown as mrscarrot
Fur the Hex of It
I love when this author introduces a new series, and this one is a doozy. Holly's drawn into a mystery in this small town, and she has to solve it before she’s the next victim. I just loved how self-assured and together Holly is. Doris and Flynn were fun sidekicks, and let’s not forget Calder, the law in the town.
Witch Way to Murder & Mayhem
I started the book and was at first hesitant. By the time I was about a fifth of the way in, I was in love. I enjoyed this book so much!
Wild Ghost Chase
Another amazing book. All of your favorite characters are back to solve another ghostly murder mystery with a side of blackmail thrown in. And spa day with Bandit is the best. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute!
What the Hex
What the Hex is a fantastic paranormal cozy mystery. I loved this book! The characters are wonderful and quirky. The plot is engaging and fun. This book is full of humor, mystery, magic, and romance. I highly recommend this book and can't wait for more Gravestone mysteries.
Ghost Mortem
A really wonderful book. It is the first in a series. Has
Such awesome characters. Jane Hinchey is such an amazing
Author. Love reading her books. Highly recommend...
Witch Way to Romance & Ruin
This series and the characters are great! I can't wait for more!
Witch Way Box Set Collection
I am such a huge fan of this series! Cozy paranormal mysteries are one of my favorites, and I can't wait for this author to write more
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
This book was well worth the wait. I don't know about anyone else but I find I can picture what is happening in this series as I am reading it. I can see it looks like Audrey is talking to herself when she has a conversation with a ghost. This book is a wee bit different from the rest as the animals and Ben are just fleeting glimpses, but Audrey finally meets Kade's family. I had an ARC copy of this book, and I most definitely recommend it to anybody who likes cozy mysteries.
Fur the Hex of it
What a fantastic new series!! Love the characters, especially the name Holly Day. And her "pet rat" Flynn. Wonderfully funny and intriguing, can not wait for more!
What the Hex
As if it weren't enough trying to keep a low profile, the peculiar name she had been assigned, walking around with her not-cute boot foot, and her sudden headaches, it all seemed a jumble with her memory off. It was funny to me to visualize Holly with the rat on her shoulder dragging the foot-boot as she tried to figure out the culprits. Not a very sexy sight for Calder, but that man was special! The mystery got more and more complicated and kept me enjoying the plot twists, some that I didn't expect and took me by surprise. An interesting cozy mystery, with an entertaining, funny plot with a picturesque old ex-agent who made me laugh all the time with her antics. I liked the mystery, the romance between Holly and Calder, the interesting characters, and that Holly now has more options to help Flynn and recover her memory. Eager for the next book.
Fur the Hex of It
Who is Holly? What does she do for a living and where do we find her? Why is she there? Who and what is Flynn? What and who are the Supernatural Investigation Agency (SIA)? Who is Scott and how does he know Holly and Flynn? What happens when the sheriff shows up? Omg, she has truly landed in the devil's armpit hasn't she? Oh, I could not stop laughing at the play on the names of some of the folks in the town. I'm still trying to figure out if there's a meaning to others! Oh, the trials Doris and Holly get into and put Calder through are funny! What book does Denise borrow/take from Holly's house? Read and see what happens when the Mayor shows up. I liked this story so much and cannot wait to read the next book in the series!!! Enjoy the read! I did.
Battle of the Hexes
Absolutely loved this book. What great characters, and it keeps you intrigued! Can't wait for more, and to see where it goes with Holly and Calder!!!
Fur the Hex of It
"Let's go! There's shenanigans to be had!" That about sums up how fun this story was. The characters were great, the story was fun, and I can't wait for more.
Witch Way to Murder and Mayhem
I love Witch Way to Murder & Mayhem. This book is humorous and entertaining. I love the quirky characters. This is a wonderful book that was fun to read.
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
Audrey and Kade go away to visit his parents and soon wind up with another mystery on their hands. Audrey meets her future in-laws along with solving another crime, all while trying not to spill her biggest secret to everyone.
Ghost Mortem
I fell so in love with Audrey and her beau in this one! This is going to be a great series!
What the Hex
I was given an advanced reader's copy of this book for an honest review. I really enjoyed the book even though I had not read any of the previous books in the series. It has interesting characters and a great storyline. I am looking forward to reading more of this series.
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
I loved this book with its mystery, humor, and a bit of romance. I loved the realistic anxiety Audrey experiences with her upcoming wedding. Her pets are quite amusing. The future in-laws were amazing and so accepting. I really enjoyed this book and the others in this series. I highly recommend this Author and her works.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
Airplanes, ghosts, and murder!
Reading this book felt like coming home and reuniting with friends and family. While the base of this book is murder, it was an interesting book, and it made me laugh a lot! Audrey and Kade are just perfect, and it's always fun to read their story.
Here Ghost Nothing
Another wonderful book in this series.
Audrey is an awesome character.
I highly recommend reading any or all of her books...
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
The clumsy PI and dashing police detective are moving ahead toward walking down the aisle. Meeting his folks- cool, except for the ghosts on the plane.
Getting outed by a ghost in their apartment- unexpected. Having the senior Galloways ready to dip into a murder investigation and having them not bat an eye over her psychic skills? Pricelessly awesome.
Bad guys, crazy actors, bad actors, and an evil acting sister-in-law trying to take over the wedding- maddening. Also, par for the course for Audrey- who is exactly as hilariously awful on a golf course as I had imagined
sweet, sad, and horrific mixed with butt-kicking women seeking justice
Battle of the Hexes
I love the characters and amazing worldbuilding with a dash of shenanigans mixed in.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
I could not put this book down it’s yet another great read from Jane. I love kades parents and how they get along with Audrey and all her quirkiness lol gotta love the dramatics from Thor and Bandit as well I can’t wait for the next book in the series plz say it won’t be too long of a wait 😁
Two Minutes Past Midnight
Great story! Fun characters. I love this world and enjoy reading about all the shenanigans the residents of the Bewildered Retirement Home got up to.
Third Strike of Midnight
This third book by Jane in this world was awesome! The characters are great and the story was action-packed with a great ending! Loved everything about it.
What the Hex
I was given an advanced reader's copy of this book for an honest review. I really enjoyed the book even though I had not read any of the previous books in the series. It has interesting characters and a great storyline. I am looking forward to reading more of this series.
Who Ghost There?
OK, first off, this is the sixth book in the series, and I have to say it’s probably the best so far even if I tend to say that every time. Audrey is her usual adorable, clumsy self and we are introduced to a new character Seb.
Battle Of The Hexes
Another wonderful book in this series.
Jane Hinchey is an amazing author.
Love reading all her wonderful books.
Highly recommend reading this wonderful book.
What the Hex
Another book that was full of laughs! I adore these characters and how the author keeps me entertained throughout the book. If you like humorous, action-packed paranormal cozy mysteries, then I highly recommend reading this series.
The Ghost Is Clear
I just love reading this series. Each one is unique.
Jane Hinchey is such an amazing author. I highly recommend reading any or all of her books. I love the character of Audrey. Can't wait to read more in this series of books...
Witch Way to Murder & Mayhem
I loved this new world and all the new characters. So much fun!
Witch Way to Romance & Ruin
This second book in this very fun paranormal cozy mystery series was even better than the first one. I just really love this cute series!
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
I love this series. Audrey and her boyfriend, Detective Kade, are fantastic...and the regulars are here with some new wacky new ladies...Audrey meets her in-laws-to-be and, of course, runs into another new ghost..really more than one....good mystery, good story, humor, and as always, a satisfying read.
What the Hex
I just love these wonderful stories of the rat-not-rat, Flynn and his mate Holly Day, the witch, and the mischievous things they get up to with their sidekick Doris. I am always left smiling and wanting to see what this crazy bunch will get up to next. Once again, the ending was quite the surprise. I think I might just sit down and read the whole book again!
Recommended, clean, fun, and entertaining read!
Ghost Mortem
This book is fun and engaging. The characters are great. Audrey is interesting and relatable. This book is full of humor and adventure. The mystery has so many twists and turns to keep you guessing.
What the Hex
Again another great book from this author! I love the characters and the ending was great. There's just enough to have you guessing but not so much you are not getting the relaxation and joy from the plot/book. I look forward to more in this and other series by this Author. I highly recommend this book, an excellent escape from the real world for a bit.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
I loved it. This was a good cosy mystery. I love Kade and Audrey. I loved getting to meet Kade's parents. I really look forward to getting a new one of Jane's books. They are always a fun read.
Witch Way Series
the Witch Way series is a must read and are fantastic
I have read and reviewed each Witch Way book so far and love them. The entire series is a must read - I just can't pick one!
Wild Ghost Chase
Another great read from Jane I absolutely love Audrey, Kade Thor, and Bandit. I couldn’t put this one down, just like all the rest, I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book. I highly recommend it if you need a good laugh.
I LOVE YOUR BOOKS!!! The Ghost Detective series has almost ruined me for other ghost mysteries! They are laugh out loud mysteries. I have preordered #3
Battle of the Hexes
Battle of the Hexes is a fantastic cozy mystery. I absolutely loved it! It is fun and entertaining. It is full of humor, mystery, and action. The mystery has many twists and surprises that will keep you guessing. I love the town and all the quirky characters. I highly recommend this book and can't wait for more in this amazing series.
Ghost Detective Series
I loved it!
Witch Way to Beauty & the Beach
I love this series! The characters are great and the story is always entertaining. I love this world that Jane Hinchey created.
Witch Way to Beauty and the Beach
I loved Witch Way to Beauty and Beach! I love this series and each book seems to get better and better.
What the Hex
This series is so much fun. I LOVE the punny names: Holly Day, Doris Shutt, Fay Tality, Luke Bizzy, etc. I do recommend reading this series in order. In this book, a mobster is killed and his heart is removed. Holly finds the body, of course, and she and Doris are determined to find the killer. There is a lot of backstory and Holly finds out most of what happened to her to land her in Gravestone.
All in Vein
Mak and Hal are just so darn cute as an “old” vampire married couple. We are introduced to them, their lovely kitten Fang, Oli, and to their new friend Elena. I’m all excited to read more in that series.
Wild Ghost Chase
No spoilers from me but this is one of those books you don't want to put down and itch to tell everyone about it, I absolutely love all the books in this series.
I love Audrey, as well as Bandit and Thor, who can be so amusing. The book is so well written it's like you're there, there was a scene involving peanut butter that had me laughing out loud!
It's a fun story, with well-drawn interesting characters who make you want to meet them! I am already eager to read the next one.
Witch Way Down Under
I love Witch Way Down Under. This book is engaging and exciting. This is an action-packed adventure. The mystery has many twists that keep you guessing until the end. This is a really fun and interesting book.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
Each book makes me fall in love with Audrey more. She’s scrappy, funny, accident-prone, addicted to coffee, and downright wonderful. She's going with Kade to Chicago to meet his parents for the first time. Of course, she sees a ghost, and the parents jump in on the mystery-solving tour. It’s a fun read, and I can’t recommend this book or the series more. If you like a humorous mystery cozy, this one is definitely for you.
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
This is another great book by Jane Hinchey. I love all of the characters in this story. Trouble follows our main character as usual, and meeting the future in laws adds to the tension. I can't wait for the next book in the series.
What the Hex
Really adorable book. Still absolutely adore Flynn and I'm thoroughly amused by Holly and her klutzy antics. Doris is, again, also very hilarious in her shenanigans. The only thing that was, in my opinion, slightly overdone, was the use of the silly names. It seems everyone went around calling everyone else by their full, silly name. Constantly. But since the rest of the story was well put together and highly amusing, I don't mind too much. I do look forward to the future installments, especially seeing as how this book ended the beginning of why Holly is in Gravestone and starts the why of now she gets to stay there. And of course, it will also be good to read about the trouble she always seems to find herself getting into.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
OMG, I couldn't put it down! Love the family and how they just love Audrey. I can't wait for more.
What the Hex
This book concludes the first trilogy and all your questions are getting answered.
Superbly written throughout the book and series, the storylines connect well and make perfect sense.
Holly and her friends solve yet another mystery and she finds out a few hard truths about herself and Gravestone.
It was a fun and quirky read, which grabbed me glued to the pages. Suspenseful and excellent storytelling as always.
Cannot wait what's in store for Holly next!!!
Witch Way to Death & Destruction
This series is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I love the characters and all the hijinks they get into.
Witch Way to Secrets & Sorcery
I really like the characters, and I would have liked to have seen Whitney more, but when she’s there, she’s hilarious. As with the other books in the series, this was well-written, and I like that her boyfriend doesn’t keep telling her to quit sleuthing.
Witch Way to Beauty and the Beach
Loved the romance of the characters Jackson and Harper.
Wonderful book.
A Ghost of a Chance
A Ghost of a Chance is a fantastic cozy mystery book. This book is entertaining and humorous. It is full of suspense and mystery. I love the quirky characters.
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
Great addition to the series as we have Audrey and Kade flying off to spend time with Kade's parents, who have ended their great Australia adventure and moved into a retirement community in Chicago. Her beloved pets are being taken care of by her neighbor, Seb, and he is also working on planning the wedding. Things start off on a ghoulish note when Audrey discovers there are at least a dozen ghosts on the flight, all injured in some way, with some missing entire limbs. As if flying wasn't bad enough. Ugh. She also immediately "comes out" to her future in-laws when she mistakes a ghost for another family member and tries to shake her hand. Double ugh. But apparently, Kade's parents are more interested in finding the body than they are in why it is she can interact with ghosts. Wow, that was unexpected. Huh.
I was given an advanced copy of this book by the author. My review is voluntary.
Easy Come, Easy Ghost
It's nerve-wracking enough meeting the parents for the first time... throw in a ghost and some kooky senior-agers and mayhem ensues. I love this series... and the video calls with Thor, and Bandit were awesome. Thor is such a drama queen.
Witch Way to Murder & Mayhem
I loved reading this wonderful book. I loved all the characters, especially Gran.
I love reading a wonderful cozy mystery. This is the first one I have read with
paranormal characters. It won't be my last. Can't wait to read more of Jane Hinchey's books.
The Ghost is Clear
I kept thinking I know who the murderer was, but I was completely wrong. Audrey is a great character, and I just love her to death.
Fur the Hex of It
Loved reading this wonderful book by author Jane Hinchey. Holly is such an awesome character.
I highly recommend reading this book or any book by this wonderful author...
Give up the Ghost
Audrey is just so funny and entertaining without being a mockery. I love the interactions between her and Galloway, or Captain Cowboy Hot Pants.
Here Ghost Nothing
This is the fifth book in this series, and it’s still going strong! I love Audrey's relationship with Galloway; he is just so accepting of her and her flaws, and he believes her about seeing ghosts.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
Audrey is heading to Chicago with Kade to meet her future in-laws. Audrey is just so appealingly relatable. She is clumsy, says the wrong thing, and has a hard time standing up to her family; she is a heroine for us regular folks. These stories are so funny and really different from all the other cozy mysteries. A dead woman on the golf course and her future in-laws are helping with the investigation, what could go wrong? This was the best story yet, and I look forward to more and more of Audrey.
Easy Come Easy Ghost
I totally loved this book. I was so happy to get the next in the series. Thor and Bandit on the video calls are absolutely hilarious. And really, who would’ve thought of dumpster diving as premarital bonding?
What the Hex
Wonderful!
As one of Jane's advanced readers, I absolutely devoured the book. I love all of the characters and learning more of their backstories. This series is so much fun to read.
What the Hex
It doesn't help when your memory has as many holes as swiss cheese and having your brain wiped doesn't help Holly one bit. Especially not when the faces of strangers somehow look familiar, things are not what they seem. But Holly just bites the bullet and carries on - because she just has to.
I enjoyed the first two books in this series and this one is the best because it answers all the confusing questions that were posed and ties everything together. Good read, thumbs up!
