Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic
Publisher Description
If you’d asked me a week ago, I would have told you that the best cupcakes were dark chocolate with chocolate cream cheese icing, that dancing in a crowd of magic wielders — the Adept — was better than sex, and that my life was peaceful and uneventful. Just the way I liked it. That’s what twenty-three years in the magical backwater of Vancouver will get you — a completely skewed sense of reality. Because when the dead werewolves started showing up, it all unraveled … except for the cupcake part. That’s a universal truth.
------------------------------------
Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic is the first book in the Dowser series, which is set in the same universe as the Oracle, Reconstructionist, Amplifier, Archivist, and Misfits of the Adept Universe series. While it is not necessary to read all the series, in order to avoid spoilers the ideal reading order of the Adept Universe begins with Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic (Dowser 1).

Love this world and the characters
The immediate drop into a mixed up world of magic and mundane grabbed me.
Though I have to admit my pocketbook has taken a hit trying out all the different single source dark chocolate bars available 😋
Pretty good
I really loved the book it was very interesting
Okay
This was an interesting read. I enjoyed it and may pick up the second, but I found it very distracting when product placement was dropped in the book. The brand names seemed really out of place and unnecessary.
