Cat Trick is the 4th book in Sofie Kelly's Magical Cats Mystery series. Sofie Kelly is the pseudonym of Darlene Ryan, a Young Adult author and artist. There are 8 books in this series so far. The 9th book is coming out in October 2016.

In Cat Trick, Librarian Kathleen Paulson returns with her two cats, Owen and Hercules. Some Mayville Heights business people want to put the little town on the map with a tourist vacation package. A representative of Laurel Tours comes to town. Mike Glazer grew up in Mayville Heights, but he just isn't the bright young man people remember. Glazer has become a loud-mouthed, over opinionated jerk. He manages to offend nearly everyone in town within days of his arrival. Residents try to remain calm and treat him with patience because they want the vacation package to promote the town. Plans fall aside though, when Glazer is found dead. Was he murdered? Kathleen and her two magical felines are embroiled in mystery once again.

I very much enjoy this series. I like cozy mysteries as a quick read break from heavier fiction. And, as a foster parent to orphaned kittens, I love the fact that the two felines are rescue cats from a feral colony that is also featured in the book. Most of the main characters take turns feeding and checking on the feral colony at Wisteria Hill. As a Humane Society volunteer, I enjoy that aspect of the storyline as much as the mystery. :)

Sofie Kelly also has another cozy series written under the name Sofie Ryan: Second Chance Cat Mysteries. And those two pen-names are both in reality the author Darlene Ryan. Confused yet? lol. Whatever name she goes by, I enjoy Ryan-Kelly-whatever-her-name's style. I have book 1 of the Second Chance Cat series on my TBR shelf. I think I might just soak up some sun this afternoon after the gym and give it a whirl. :)

Cats and mysteries. Mysteries and cats. I like that combo. :) And after finishing a rather emotionally heavy book this morning, I need a cozy to brighten my mind back up. Cats in my book, and a real kitty on my lap. :) Great way to spend a warm, almost-spring afternoon.

My rating: 7/10

Almost too cutesy, but this is the first book in the series that I have found. The mystery was just a bit obvious as well, but it was an enjoyable read for a fan of “cat cozies”. ( )

A highly entertaining, escapist read, especially (and probably only) if you like cats. These are magical cats and they have very distinctive, strong personalities as well as "superpowers". They help Kathleen solve mysteries in her little Minnesota town, much to the consternation of the detective and chief love interest, Marcus.

I genuinely enjoyed the story overall - great characters, lots of solid dialogue and I really got 'into' the story and didn't want to put the book down. But I have to admit the mystery was a bit secondary to me in this one. I found myself not really caring one way or the other about the murder victim, the suspects, or whether it was solved or not. I *did* think the ending was a bit dumb - Kathleen is either dishonest or acting out of character at the end and it just felt like the author was forcing her character into a TSTL moment. Occupational hazard if you're a cozy writer, I guess.

Luckily, a new adventure with Owen and Hercules (the cats) comes out in October and I'll be looking for it. ( )

For a second, I wasn't sure that I was seeing what I seemed to be seeing, which was a small, round sesame water cracker topped with half a sardine in Louisiana hot sauce and a slice of black olive making its way across Marcus Gordon's table seemingly under its own steam.
