By K.M. Shea

Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments

The Lost Files of the MBRC is an anthology of five MBRC short stories--three of which have never before been released.

When Morgan decided to stay employed at the Magical Beings' Rehabilitation Center, she thought her life might quiet down as she started college and developed her career. She thought wrong.

In between balancing her relationship with Devin the Pook and planning for MBRC domination with her reluctant business partner, Aysel, Morgan chauffeurs around a reclusive Kraken, continues to play the lute at Asahi and Kadri's annual marriage celebration, and pulls all-nighter study sessions for college. Thankfully, her old friends - like Madeline, Frank, and Frey - are still around to wreak havoc and fun!

This was one of my favourite series last year! This is 5 short stories just tying up lose ends!
It’s fantastic to read I’m how they are all doing and how settled it’s become! Nice end to a fab series!

WATER WITCH is the first book in the Witches of Westwood Academy and we start off with Rio. Well, actually, we start off with Leanna Stolbright - a magical bloodhound, otherwise known as a magical scout. She finds Rio and issues her an invitation to join the Academy.

At twenty years old, Rio knows about magic. She also knows their bloodline is cursed as both her mother and grandmother died because of it. She is excited to go but sad to leave her grandfather behind.

There isn't a lot of world-building so you just sort of go with it. I would have liked a bit more of that and definitely more character-building, especially between Rio and Magnus, and Rio and Otto.

This was a quick and easy read with plenty of questions left unanswered. I am hoping some get answered in the next book. A great coffee-break book that I happily recommend.
