4-1/2 Stars 
 A great light beach read with a wonderful cast of characters. There is no villain, no conflict, no violence and no mystery to solve.... just a great cast of characters that happen to be modern witches. 
 I loved the chat type dialog between the family members and friends....I really felt like I personally knew each of them by the end of the book. Ms. Geary made me feel like I was right there with them throughout the story. I could see the scenery and the characters in my mind and feel their emotions. 
 It may not have been extremely fast paced or had 'keep you on the edge of your seat' excitement; but it still drew me right in and kept me there wishing I could be a part of their witch family. 
 I'm already reading book 2, 'A Hidden Witch', and it continues with the same cast of characters that I came to love in 'A Modern Witch'. 
 A great fun read!
