She‘d tried everything to fix this. She‘d searched for Humphrey‘s 11 but couldn‘t find it anywhere. She‘d bought a bottle of castor oil and drunk the whole thing, but it only gave her the runs. She‘d jumped off her dad‘s worktable in the basement over and over until her legs gave out, lifted the dictionary above her head until her arms cramped; she‘d even drunk turpentine, but she barely managed a capful before throwing up. She‘d closed her⬇️

JenniferEgnor eyes when she crossed the street and prayed she‘d get hit by a car until she realized they‘d probably do an autopsy and everyone would find out. 1h

Honestly, I‘ve been thinking about this book and Very Secret Society constantly lately, so here. I don‘t even need to have magic here, but I‘d love to live in the cozy, found family, magical world built in these two books.

#SundayFunday Have a lovely day, and remember to tag me!

Leslie_Ak2Oh My very first thought was Harry Potter, but then again the more I think about it the more I realize that there are so many worlds would be absolutely wonderful to live in that I became overwhelmed with the idea of having to choose just one….now as I sit, sipping on a cup of tea, I‘m struck with a small amount of gratitude for being able to visit so many different worlds and POVs, even if only in the pages of a book. 5h

Well, I finished this one. Yet, some of those scenes I really wish were out of my head. 😔 It also didn‘t last long on my bracket.

While this wasn‘t my favorite from this author, it was still very good. There were slower parts in the middle but it picked up again. This story follows three MCs and goes back and forth to their different times, with the “present day” being 1998. There‘s an eerie, witchy feel to it and plenty of mysterious events. Each MC has a mystery to solve with the three connecting in the end. The characters were well written and there was so much intrigue.

jen_the_scribe Also, the narrator was fantastic! 3d

I forgot to update on this one & I‘m sad to say that i was baited with #cozyreads
It‘s cute, wholesome, & reads like YA.. until BAM💥
random #smut scenes everywhere?!
the adult language sounded like teenagers trying to be edgy, not a group of adults who hit the bars.
I wanted cozy chaos & got tonal whiplash.
Would anyone recommend the rest of the series or was this a sign to turn back before I get hexed again?😬

*Exactly* what I want from a cozy romantasy. I cried tenderly over the casual reveal of emotional truths more times than I care to count. This is a treasure of a found family story. 👇🏻

monalyisha 1/4: While I‘ve read better written sex scenes, they weren‘t completely lacking in spice. I also wish there‘d been slightly more attention paid to developing Sera & Francesca‘s friendship. 5d
monalyisha 2/4: And the mystery about how to adapt and personalize the spell to restore Sera‘s powers wasn‘t particularly mysterious; I guessed two out of the three ingredients pretty quickly (and the third — or the second, technically — couldn‘t have been guessed until the requisite context was provided). (edited) 5d
monalyisha 3/4: Still, Mandanna‘s writing shines so brightly in most places, and so many of the storylines wrap up in such a satisfying way, that I‘m inclined to overlook any minor quibbles I may have. A sweet and charming story, which manages to address culturally relevant subjects (e.g. pronoun usage, autism) in a completely organic way. 5d
monalyisha 4/4: Of the two novels I‘ve read by Mandanna, I prefer The Secret Society…but I think it‘s because I‘m a coastal girly. No shade to this follow-up whatsoever! I read it quickly and greedily, and I have no regrets. 5d
BookmarkTavern I can‘t wait to see what Mandanna does next! ❤️ 4d
