THE VERY SECRET SOCIETY OF IRREGULAR WIT

By Sangu Mandanna

Format:Softcover

A warm and uplifting novel about an isolated witch whose opportunity to embrace a quirky new family—and a new love—changes the course of her life.As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic, keep her head down, and stay away from other witches so their powers don’t mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she’s used to being alone and she follows the rules...with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos "pretending" to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously.But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long-suffering caretakers, and…Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he’s concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat.As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn't the only danger in the world, and when a threat comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn’t know she was looking for....

Eine süße cozy Geschichte mit liebenswürdigen Charakteren

Insgesamt eine süße Geschichte für zwischendurch mit toller, magischer Atmosphäre. Leider ist der Funke nicht zu 100% übergesprungen und ich hatte auch glaube ich etwas falsche Vorstellungen von der Geschichte. Dennoch ein schönes Buch voller Magie und Kinderlachen.

This is such an adorable cozy fantasy read! It’s heartwarming, cute, funny and wholesome. The perfect read I needed right now. I loved the characters. Mika is a fantastic protagonist and the three little girls are cute but also hilarious. The whole found family trope is right up my alley.

Das 1/4 war richtig gut aber ab dann ist es mir etwas zu plötzlich geworden. Also das pacing war an sich sehr langsam für meinen Geschmack und dann werden trotzdem Dinge wie die Lovestory einfach zu plötzlich gemacht. Also manchmal bin ich da echt nicht mehr mitgekommen. Schade fand den Anfang des Buches sehr stark aber der Rest war nicht sehr stark. Trotzdem nettes Buch für zwischendurch!
