5.0

It said it reads like a warm hug in the cover and it absolutely delivers on that promise. If Hallmark made a witch movie, this would probably be it. There’s so much goodness in it and so much love, and just the tiniest bit of drama to keep the plot moving along. It’s predictable in a lot of ways, but the twist was one I actually didn’t expect.

But the best part of this book was the diversity in the cast of characters and how that diversity is represented in such a natural way in the writing of the story. Nothing ever felt forced, or thrust into your face for representation points, and it still managed to tackle all the complicated feelings of being a WOC in England and paralleling that to the isolation of witches. It’s very clever and I loved every second of it.

Would definitely recommend this book if anyone is looking for a lighter hearted read with a great set of characters.
