The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow
4.0

Juniper, Agnes, and Bella are sisters and have spent most of their lives living separately. They are also witches. Juniper arrives in New Salem by running from Crow County since she is accused of murder and witchcraft. Agnes and Bella both live in New Salem, but don’t know it and Juniper doesn’t even know they live in New Salem. On the day of the equinox, all three of them happen to be in the same square at the same suffragist rally with different reasons of being there. Something happens and they all collide and realize who they are to each other. From there, they fight for women’s rights and the right to practice witchcraft.
This is a beautiful story of sisterhood and girl power. I loved seeing them trying to make witchcraft a thing and women being powerful. The villain of the story was well done too. I liked the tales and spells that were thrown into the story. The only thing I was not a fan of was the slowness of the story. Overall it was good and I recommend it.
