Vella Day brings you a yarn-spinning, time-hopping, mystery-solving extravaganza! Hi, I'm Edith Emory, just an average book-loving knitter with a passion for collecting knick-knacks. When I stumbled upon a magical talisman at a garage sale, I ended up on a wild adventure. You see, this talisman had the power to transport me back in time, and by chance, I landed in the groovy year of 1969. But don't worry. I wasn't alone. I had my trusty sidekick and doll-collecting best friend, Millie Morris, with me. Together, we're uncovering a mystery that's not just out of this world, but out of this ...

A witchy time travel tale that could only happen to me—and on Christmas Eve no less. Hi, I’m Glinda Goodall. I know I’m a witch, but I never expected to have my powers turn against me and send me and Jaxson back fifty years to a snowy winter wonderland. Who knew the seventies were so archaic? No computers, no cell phones, and TVs with small screens that weighed as much as a battleship. Okay, gas might have been $.36 a gallon, but that seemed to have been the only plus. Experiencing what it was like way back then was fun for about one day, but wouldn’t you know it, a guest is ...

Considering Drake’s connection with the deceased, what kind of friend would I be ...
