This book is so cozy and warm. About what makes a home and family.

Set in the lead up to Christmas so even though there‘s witches, it‘s a perfect read for December as well.

And though there‘s romance here, that‘s not the main focus of the book.

Jinx | Meg Cabot

Seems like I came across a stand-alone novel which seems to be not typical for Meg Cabot. The coming off age (or coming off witchcraft) story is nice for the teenager target group but for me as an adult reader the ending was a bit rushed. I couldn‘t believe how gullible Jinx was and that she didn‘t realize where Zack‘s infatuation lies. Completely out of it.

AnnCrystal Have you read the young adult, Sweep Series by Cate Tiernan? Been years, yet it was one of my teenage book obsessions 😂 and it remains upon my shelf for my all-time favorites 📚💝. (edited) 2d

Moving on with my Christmas reading - I have a few novels of Meg Cabot on my bookshelf and never read one. 🙈

The story jumps right in after the prologue without much character development, which made it hard to get into at first. I love a good story about deep family bonds, and all the magic made it better! Anne‘s self righteousness made me so mad at the end, she played just as big a part. Overall a warm, cozy read. Book #106 in 2024

Yeah, so, my attitude towards A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES has officially gone from, “I‘ll probably like this, despite its TWILIGHT vibes,” to, “Ugh, I dislike pretty well everything about Harkness‘s approach and it‘s so LONG and TEDIOUS and WHYYYYYY.”

I‘m gonna finish it in case the time travel element saves it, but I have few hopes.

At least my Wuhan hot dry noodles were good. I increased the noodle:sauce ratio and added MANY mustard tubers.

Aims42 I hear ya! I was enjoying this book and then halfway through it was like, “can we just get on with it?” 😂 I bailed and never looked back lol 🚀 2w

xicanti @Aims42 I was like, I wanna bail, but I also wanna see the time travel, and I‘ve invested so much time in it already that I want to be able to count it on my reading list, which I don‘t do with stuff I‘ve bailed on. So here I am sorta sloppy speed-reading it. 2w

Aims42 @Amiable @quietjenn @Ruthiella @xicanti Yay!! I‘m relieved to know I‘m not alone 🤩 2w
PaperbackPirate I thought it was meh but was curious enough to try the second in the series. I Iiked it even less and gave up on finishing the trilogy. 😏 2w
xicanti @PaperbackPirate I was like, “Ooh, Tudor England!” But then I asked myself if I wanted to put up with Diana and Mathew for even ten more pages, let alone six hundred. I marked the omnibus as finished without even trying SHADOW OF NIGHT. 2w

The descriptive writing in this book has its moments, and I was very swept up in it for the first half. But sometimes, it does feel like she's typing with one hand and holding a thesaurus with the other. Idk that I need a simile on every page.

Graywacke I‘m pondering what that actually means. 🤔 Like, with a 🔨? ouch? 2w
Ruthiella Meaning that when it opened the inside was sparkly? 🤔 2w

3✨ This gave me a magical kids Nanny McFee vibe. I really enjoyed the homeschool witches, secret society aspect of this book. The characters were easy to like and the world building had a lot of interesting elements that could be explored more.
