I received a free eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.


Really enjoyable read! The chapters are a little haphazardly put together and from multiple POV, so for the first few chapters I had a hard time with what was the present, flashback, and who was who. But if you just push through this bit of confusion, you are rewarded with a tale of magic, friendship, and love that are all just too big to fit into neat little boxes. We meet Danny, a girl newly arrived in Tempest, CA from Michigan

after causing a lot of trouble for her parents (leaving school, running away, etc.) and has also come out as queer. In this small town, she finds a close-knit group of LGBTQ witches (the Grays) who have cast a spell to bring Danny to Tempest to find their missing friend, Imogen. As she spends time with them, she learns to live in tune with the natural world around her. The novel follows Danny and the Grays on a quest to find their missing friend as time is quickly running out.


Likes: Loved the Grays and the redwood setting. Also their understanding of what makes magic magical.

Recommended for: Those who like romantic fantasy or YA contemporary with a bit of magic thrown in

Ages: teenage and up
