Review Quotes
If you want to get a look in the mind of a talking cat and go an pawsome adventure, this book is for you. It was such a fun read and I loved spending some time with Sir Kipling, who is one of my favorite side characters from this series. The author managed to capture his snarky personality perfectly even from his point of view, the adventure was fun to read about and also contained some danger and I liked how cat like, smart and capable Sir Kipling was. While part of the series, you can read it in order or start the series with this one. I am curious how/ if the plot point in this novella ties in with the next book. - Lola from Lola's Reviews

"Witch Bell Forecasts Darkness" was a complete waste of time. The plot was unoriginal, filled with predictable twists and turns that I saw coming from a mile away. The writing style was basic and lacked any sort of flair or creativity. The dialogue felt forced and unnatural, making it difficult to fully engage with the characters. I was simply bored throughout the entire book and couldn't wait for it to be over. Save yourself the trouble and skip this one.
