I thought this book was cute, funny & heartwarming. I loved Mika Moon and the three witch children - Terracotta, Altamira, and Rosetta. I think all their personalities were distinct and endearing. I didn’t remember whether there was a love story, and
I was pleasantly surprised by Jamie and Mika although you know pretty early on that they’re gonna fall in love. Primrose turning out to be Peony, Lillian’s sister, was a small twist but not shocking. The magic potions were creative and fun. I love that all the witches are women from different countries around the world. I also really like that the first and last chapter started with the same line.
