VERY SECRET SOCIETY OF IRREGULAR WITCHES

von Sangu Mandanna

Format:Hardcover

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....

Wie kann ein Buch so perfekt sein?

Monika Rezension von Monika

I'm a simple woman, a book makes me cry, I give it 5 stars. This book isn't perfect, some messages are quite heavy handed, I called the plot twist very early on. I also really didn't need an explicit sex scene in this kind of book, so it's rationally more of a 4 stars, bumped up. Because it's so damn adorable and wholesome. And they quote Jane Austen at each other? And the love interest is a grumpy librarian? Come ooooon! It's a wonderful story about acceptance and being enough just as you are and found family and if something is a failsafe way to get me emotional, it's found family. I think cozy fantasy might be my new favourite genre. "Niceness is all about what we do when other people are looking. Kindness, on the other hand, runs deep. Kindness is what happens when no one's looking."
