pickDon't be fooled by the cover. This romantic witchy tale with branches of magical realism deals with moving through grief and navigating tense family dynamics. But I thought it was all handled with nuance, full characters, and, yes, bits of magic. https://youtu.be/fMh_1M3lW1U
pickI was sick yesterday and today, and wanted something light and fun. This book just came out and I liked the premise. It was an enjoyable read overall. The environmental message was strong, complicated family dynamics were interesting,even if sometimes incredibly irritating. The romance was sweet, and it would‘ve been sweeter if intimate bits weren‘t vulgar, it felt forced and gratuitous at times. Magical realism was a nice touch.
