A light fun read, closer to 3.5 stars but will probably enjoy re-reading it around Halloween. And then it’ll be bumped up to 4 stars.
So to me, this book is one part 90s Sabrina, a dash of Hocus Pocus, set in Disney's Halloweentown, with a lot of the “f” word thrown around plus a few Harry Potter and LOTRs references.

This was a cute, lighthearted read that is perfect for the season. It definitely gave me Hocus Pocus vibes, from the cozy small town to Samhain magic and a romance that is wrapped up in undoing a curse.
I preferred the last one 1/3 of the book to the rest of it, which is when I felt like the magic and relationship became most interesting for me. I was hoping for a bit more from this one, but ultimately enjoyed it as a sweet seasonal read. 🧹🔮👻

It took me some time to get into this, but once I did it was a quick read. I’ve said before that rom-coms aren’t my genre and I haven’t read a fantasy in forever, but by the last third of the book I finally accepted this book for what it was and enjoyed it more. If you are looking for a witchy read around Halloween this may be a good one to consider.
