A sheltered witch without powers ventures beyond her familiar world for the first time when she attends college. Through her experiences, the reader is introduced to a society rife with racism and prejudice. 

As she navigates complex power dynamics and hidden intrigues, she also forms unexpected friendships with her fellow students, deepening both her understanding of the world and her own place within it. The novel skillfully illustrates the transformative power of connection.
