4.0

A whimsical story about a lonely witch hired to help tutor a trio of young, orphaned witches by the 4 adults doing their best to raise them. 
Things I loved: Cozy, sweet, and witchy, with found family and grumpy-sunshine love story. Also a Very Good Dog. Fav line in the whole book: “That was some excellent Mary Poppins shit right there.”
Things I didn’t love: it’s a straightforward, predictable plot with not a ton of depth or development. Occasionally sickly sweet. 

If you want something easy to read, sweet, witchcore and a little bit twee, with a found family and HEA, this is for you.
