LOVEABLE.

5 stars

There is SO much to absolutely love about this book. The characters are rich and their growth and experiences as members of the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ community progress alongside all the whymsical magic you might imagine taking place by befriending a witch. The storyline's main focus, Snapdragon's journey into witchery, is enriched by her surrounding experiences; living frugally with her mother, supporting her transitioning friend, befriending an elderly women, and confronting her own ideas on identity.
