    Can’t put this one down

Midnight at the Blackbird Cafe⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“ Nestled in the mountain shadows of Alabama lies the little town of Wicklow. It is here that Anna Kate has returned to bury her beloved Granny Zee, owner of the Blackbird Café.It was supposed to be a quick trip to close the café and settle her grandmother’s estate, but despite her best intentions to avoid forming ties or even getting to know her father’s side of the family, Anna Kate finds herself inexplicably drawn to the quirky Southern town her mother ran away from so many years ago, and the mysterious blackbird pie everybody can’t stop talking about.”This book is magical! The writing is awesome. You will not want to put this one down. The characters are well written and you can feel like you are each character. This is by far in my top 5 if not my favorite book ever.

    A magical mix

EXCERPT: 'Why don't you start at the beginning?''The beginning? Well, I reckon that was the funeral. The funeral turned into a damned circus when the blackbirds showed up.' Blackberry sweet tea sloshed over the rims of two mason jars as Faylene Wiggins abruptly slapped her hand on the tabletop. 'Wait! Wait! You can't print that. My mama would wash out my mouth with her homemade lemon verbena soap if she knew I cursed for the good Lord and all the world to see in your article.'The reporter flipped the pages of his yellow steno pad. 'I thought you said that your mother was dead?''You're not from these parts, so you're excused for not understanding. Wicklow, Alabama, isn't any old ordinary town, young man. Goodness, I wouldn't put it past my mama to rise straight out of the ground and hunt me down, bar of soap clutched in her bony hand.' With a firm nod, she jammed a finger in the air and added, 'Now, that you can print.'ABOUT 'MIDNIGHT AT THE BLACKBIRD CAFÉ': Nestled in the mountain shadows of Alabama lies the little town of Wicklow.

She conjures up just the right mix of family drama, mystery, romance and magical realism.I could hear her characters speaking and was hungry for both Anna-Kate's pies and Gabriel's fried chicken.The only thing stopping this from being a five star read was my confusion about the roles of Jenna and Bow. If anyone can enlighten me, I'd be grateful.⭐⭐⭐⭐THE AUTHOR: Heather Webber, aka Heather Blake, is the author of more than twenty-five novels. She loves to read, drink too much coffee and tea, birdwatch, crochet, and bake. She currently lives near Cincinnati, Ohio, and is hard at work on her next book.I own my copy of Midnight at the Blackbird Café by Heather Webber

    The Recipe for This Book Contains Forgiveness, Love, and a Smidgeon of Magic
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 21, 2023*

This novel is a delightful story of forgiveness and discovery.  Protagonist Anna Kate Callow must return to her mother's hometown according to the terms of her grandmother's will.  Anna Kate is obligated to spend two months operating her grandmother Zee's Blackbird Café before she heads off to medical school. But this isn't just any little café.  Zee has served special pies called "Blackbird" Pies for years.  Although the pies are actually fruit pies (no birds in the recipe), they have a special ingredient and magical power that, according to local legend in the small Alabama town, will cause anyone who eats a piece of the pie to receive special messages from their deceased loved ones in the form of dreams on the nights they have consumed the pies. Supposedly, blackbirds will arrive at midnight to sing the songs that are translated into dreams.  Not everyone in the town believes in the messages, but others swear by them.  What makes the homecoming hard for Anna Kate is that her father, AJ, died in a car wreck before she was born. Her grandmother on her father's side blames Anna Kate's mother Eden for AJ's death, even claiming that Eden had the wreck on purpose because AJ was going to break up with her at his mother's request.  Eden was so mad about these accusations that she left town without even telling AJ's parents that she was pregnant, so they have never even seen their granddaughter until the action picks up in this book.  With that bit of the initial conflicts shared, I'll say what I enjoyed reading the most were Anna Kate's interactions, connections, and growing attachment to the town, its inhabitants, the blackbirds and the pies.  There is even a big surprise about the long-ago fatal wreck.  Author Heather Webber did an outstanding job of making the characters jump off the pages. It's a fun read, whether you believe in the magical blackbirds or not.
