“I lean my head on his shoulder and wonder just how much easier life would be if I weren’t in love with Roe O’Callaghan. But, oh god, how boring.”

Thank you so much to Candlewick Press for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest review!

Such an absolute blast from start to finish! I don't know how I hadn't heard of this book!

Things I loved:
- The (accurate!) use of tarot as a storytelling tool and driving force throughout the book
- Wonderful illustrations and cover design done by tarot deck illustrators
- Our show-stopping non-binary love interest, Roe! I love Roe SO MUCH!
- The details of the magic/witchcraft! Such an intricate application of magical realism!
- Diverse side characters and the focus on the queer and POC members of the cast
- The fact that we're gonna get a sequel so we get to experience even more of this world!

TW:
vomit, religious bigotry, hate crimes, homophobia, transphobia, suicide mention (past)*, suicide ideation (present)*, self harm (present)*, blood, injury, medical content, toxic friendships, bullying, alcohol consumption

*it's like... in a magical sacrifice way, not a mentally ill way
