The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches - by Sangu Mandanna (Paperback)

A light, fun read with a clever story and colorful characters. Includes nice found-family vibes and a sideline of romance with a slightly surprising bit of spice that, while not shocking seemed surprisingly … adult in context. If you’re in a reading slump this would be a great boost!

This was boring, would not recommend

Boring and not worth the read. Not very stimulating or interesting. If you have nothing better to do, then read this book out of boredom

Great book to read in the cozy Autumn weather. I loved it!!

This book was adorable!

4.5 stars rounded up! This is the ultimate comfort read for the upcoming witchy season. This is an enchanting and uplifting tale the centers magic, found family, and how we all deserve love regardless of broken pasts. This story follows Mika Moon, an orphaned witch raised in isolation from other witches to reduce the risk exposure, who is no stranger to loneliness and solitude. Things change for Mika when she’s invited to Nowhere House where she’s introduced to three, young orphaned witches in desperate need of a teacher to help them control their powers. Mika is such an incredible character. She’s such a bright light in all situations. Mika has unwavering faith in the three young witches and their abilities even when the run amok. She also has tons of patience especially when it comes to sibling squabbles. I LOVED the chemistry between Mika and Jamie. Jamie is the librarian and tutor who is grumpy and fiercely protective. They have really great banter, but the angst and build up between these two was my favorite. All of the side characters in this book are amazing because they are all fully developed and feel so authentic. So much of this story just reminded me of one big happy family that loves each other no matter what, and reinforces that everyone deserves to be loved no matter what. I could go on and on, but I’ll just say that this book is amazing, and I want everyone to read it. Thank you PRH Audio & Berkley Romance for providing a review copy. This did not influence my review.
