Would you drop everything and move to a town with a peculiar name, because an odd little man made you a strange offer? Millie Thorn did, and she could never have guessed what mysteries and revelations were awaiting her in the magical town of Spellbinder Bay. After witnessing a murder on her first day in the bay, Millie is cast into a world she never knew existed - a world of magic and the paranormal, and a world where it's seemingly normal to have a conversation with a cockatiel named Reuben.

Publisher's Summary
When the ghost of a murder victim appears in Last Chance Books, middle-aged bookstore owner Willa Chance must find the ghost's killer or risk being haunted with its unwanted advice forever. Too bad the ghost suffers from amnesia and only has a few scant clues as to the identity of the killer. That's okay, though, because Willa has a pretty good idea who did it...until her investigation turns up additional suspects with curious motives.
Meanwhile her cat, Pandora, is on the hunt for a mystical kitten that the cats of Mystic Notch must bring into the fold before the kitten is enticed to the side of evil by a powerful foe.
When Willa's own life is threatened, she enters into a race against time to figure out the identity of the killer before she becomes the next victim.

This Is Where I Get Off
I enjoyed the first two books, but, I think this will be the last one for me. The main problem I have with this book is Willa. For a sleuth, she is incredibly close minded. Willa makes fun of Pepper's teas, even though, she has seen them work on a couple of people. She is supposed to investigate for Paisley's ghost. However, when Willa questions her for leads in the case, she ignores Paisley because the information doesn't fit with her own beliefs. Willa also removes and withholds evidence that the police could use to solve the murder. On top of that, she's not very smart! Willa misses obvious clues that the reader is sure to pick up on early in the book. I saw holes in the second book, but, the premise was pretty good so I gave it another chance. No more. This is my last book in the series.

Too easy to figure out.
I had the motive figured out from the start. Then, it was pretty easy to deduce the killer later on. I don't like my mysteries that easy to solve. Especially when the protagonist is so stupid it's cringeworthy.

Repetative
What would have made A Mew to a Kill better?
Development of Characters
What do you think your next listen will be?
Nero Wolfe
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
The narrator was okay but didn't have great material. She could have paused slightly more for character change at times.
What character would you cut from A Mew to a Kill?
None. I would however develop all characters. The story leads you to believe more will be developed but I listened to 3 books in hopes that I'd see the main character become more aware of her GIFT. The group of elderly that enter the bookstore each morning could certainly add more and have deeper personalities. By the third book I would have thought some back stories would have emerged. The author repeats background information repeatedly throughout the book. I get the feeling she doesn't think her audience intelligent.
Any additional comments?
As Pepper would say,
Not my cup of tea.

Always listen to the cat.
I love this series. I love the snooping that Willa does and always finding trouble. Love the cats. If Willa would just listen to Pandora. But she does not. Look forward to the next book

Don't bother
The main character is bafflingly stupid and all the first three books are "resolved" the same way. Narrator gives it her best shot and gives it some dignity.
