17 yo Darcy is a realist who wants to experience life outside of Fableview, a small town that is obsessed with Halloween. 17 yo Anya is a real witch-in-training who also wants a normal life. To become a full-fledged witch, Anya needs to ask someone to be a mortal “protector,” so she lies to her family coven, and says Darcy is willing to do it. However, both of their future plans might be derailed by their new feelings in development. Oh, what’s a girl (or two) to do?
I loved reading this book! It is the perfect cozy Halloween read. I loved the opposites-attract trope between Darcy and Anya. I loved the charming town of Fableview and its quirky cast of characters. I thought it was a delightful sapphic romcom perfect for any high school library.
