I’m going between 3.5 - 4 stars for this one. I’m a sucker for magical realism and witches so I really enjoyed that aspect of it. I loved the characters and the towny vibe, but I didn’t feel the chemistry between the FMC and the MMC. (Honestly, I was rooting for the FMC and her best friend who she started fake dating)

There was a big secret from the MMC that I really didn’t enjoy - I felt like that should have been shared much earlier on because the way that it was revealed felt like along the lines of the surprise pregnancy trope.

Overall, cute book. I enjoy Sarah Hogle’s writing so I do look forward to her upcoming books.

Thank you Putnam and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
