• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.0

TW: Transphobia is a major plotline. There's a young trans witch and one of the middle-aged ones believes that the young one is the prophesied witch who's going to like end the world or whatever. There are lots of diverse characters -- it's nice to see that their friend group from their time as witches in training is still together -- and the book is very well-written, but it was very hard to tolerate the transphobia .
