5.0
This book was pure magic. The descriptions are lyrical, and the magic is everywhere, in the redwoods and the water and the earth all around. I love how all the girls are witches in their own way, but Danny's power and her searching is the best of all.
Also, this book is just really, really delightfully sapphic. And the final twist is darker than I expected.

No spoiler review!
4.5/5 Stars. It would've been four stars, but the ending blew me away. I couldn't put it down for the last bit. It's mostly slow paced up until the end, with lots of POV switches and flashbacks The characters were lovable with realistic flaws and good character growth. TONS of found (queer) family, which I love. Lots of mystery and some really suspenseful parts, with twists and turns that I would've never guessed, but were foreshadowed wonderfully. It's main cast is in high school, a great YA book.
