Description from the publisher:

Zinnia Riddle has been through a rough patch, but she's not broken.  This witch is tougher than she looks.  Yank off her arm?  She'll patch it back on with some black scarabyce blood.  Mess with her coworkers?  She'll grab her purse full of magic and come for you!

Now that she's the boss of her own department, life seems simple enough.  Sure, there are strange creatures crawling out of the ceiling, but that's life in a magical town like Wisteria.

But when two of her coworkers go missing, Zinnia springs into action.  All this nonsense with the third floor has gone on long enough.  If nobody else is going to fix the problem, she will.  With the help of her friends, Zinnia whips up a new potion and takes a journey to somewhere she's never been.

Will the gang be able to defeat an enemy unlike any they've ever seen?  Or will they be too distracted by their new powers?

Only time will tell, and time is a fickle monster, indeed.

This is the second book in the City Hall series, which centers on Zinnia Riddle (Aunt Zinnia). 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



WISTERIA WRINKLE is the second book in the Wisteria Witches, City Hall series.  They do need to be read in the order of release and they are intertwined with the Wisteria Witches series.   While you don’t necessarily need to read that series, there are references that will make more sense if you know the characters and circumstances.  I would recommend reading this one after WICKED WISTERIA. (That’s where I am in the series.)



I love this series and its companion.  The many magical beings and the humor keep me glued to my car seat long after I have turned off the engine.  I love the characters and how they interact and speak to each other – like true friends and coworkers.



In this particular episode, the journey is more than an adventure.  It is a lifetime and … well, I don’t want to give anything away, but that wrinkle in the title isn’t referring to anyone’s laugh lines!



I particularly loved the Dr. Who and Star Trek (red shirt) references.  Those had me laughing extra hard.



I don’t know yet what the next title in this series is, but I know that I am looking forward to it and the rest of the Wisteria town antics.



Narration:  Rosemary Benson continues to be a perfect choice for voicing the many characters in the Wisteria City Hall, especially snarky Margaret.



Note:  While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
