Book Reviews of Magic Can Be Murder
Book Review: A Book that has Almost Everything
Summary: 4 Stars
Magic Can Be Murder is a great book by a very witty author, Vivian Vande Velde, (try saying that five times fast). The book is about Nola and her mother, who both are witches. After fleeing from their horrible employer they end up in a small town where they get a job as maids. One night Nola enchants a bucket of water and drops a human hair into the water (a way of seeing the person who the hair belongs to). As soon as the image appears in the bucket Nola regrets enchanting the bucket because she sees her employers son spying on Brinna, another servant. Then a murder takes place!
I enjoyed this book simply because it kept you at the edge of your seat and was dotted with humor (such as the fact that Nola's mother had a spirit of a baby in her pinky and that Nola's mother is very strange and eccentric. I strongly reccomend that you read this book.
