A brooding witch and a bubbly mortal must team up during their town's fall festival in this cozy sapphic romance, perfect for fans of Gilmore Girls and Wicked"Swoony, witchy, and sweet."--Jennifer Dugan, author of Some Girls DoIn the charming town of Fableview, every day is Halloween. Darcy Keller, resident ray of sunshine and town spirit princess, loves every moment of Fableview's fall festivities. But she's also really ready to leave for college next year, even though her parents expect her to stay and take over their Halloween empire. Enter brooding new girl Anya Doyle, a real-life witch and almost a full member of her coven. In order to be initiated, she has to choose a mortal ally to act as her "protector." But having moved around so much, Anya is completely friendless. So she does what any self-respecting teenage almost-witch would--she lies and tells her coven her secret crush, Darcy, is willing to do the job. The solution? Work together, of course. The girls agree to help each other out, attending everything from a costume parade to a pumpkin patch party to an apple bobbing contest together. But with Anya's magical powers and Darcy's future independence on the line, the last thing they need is the added complication of pesky feelings . . .
A wonderful story about the pressures of stepping into adulthood. The romance elements are very sweet. Perfect for readers that love a fluffy, subtle, 'enemies' to lovers dynamic. The main characters are interesting enough but fall a little flat at times. Not quite Mary Sues but can toe the line. Interesting side characters in an interesting setting. Like the Halloween Town movies meet real life witches. Perfect read for young teen to YA.
