This book club is whooshed right into the pages of a cozy mystery. The quirky group of brave members must solve the mystery and reach The End to get out of the book.
In each book of the series, they travel to a different world and meet paranormal characters. It could be shifters, fairies, genies, ghosts, or anything else! It’s so much fun, you’ll wish for a book club like this!
In this book journey, they travel to an enchanted amusement theme park. It’s a magical, wonderful place, but something is disturbing the park. Robberies are occurring from every ride. It began with little things, like props or costumes, but now the stakes are rising.
The book club has entered this story so that they can find out who is behind the thefts and stop the problem. Hopefully, they can do it before chaos strikes the entire theme park and closes it down, leaving hundreds of workers jobless and thousands of park visitors disappointed.

Wow! Thank you for the amazing spotlight feature and review! I love when you said this book is “for anyone who’s ever wished they could jump inside a story.” That’s what inspired me to write this series! When I really love a book, I feel like I step inside and the whole world outside disappears. And I thought… what if that really happened? And here we are – the 9th journey into a book with the magical book club! : – )
Love the series!! Once done, I can’t wait for the next one!!
