The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic by Breanne Randall

2.0

This book was unfortunately not what I expected like at all. It’s been advertised as a cozy fall read but it’s not. It was actually a very heavy & emotional book. I was so disappointed because that is not what I signed up for when I picked this book up. If you are looking for a cozy fall read this is not for you. If you are looking for an emotional book this could be great. The portrayal of grief, loss, and abandonment was well done. There are heavy themes (suicide ideation, murder, & assault) but there is enough love and hope to keep you from falling in to despair.
