Just about everyone is saying this is a bit Practical Magic, a bit Gilmore Girls, and a lot of cozy romantic fun. Yes to all of this. I went in with high hopes and it pretty much read itself.
Loved the fall vibes, the generous sprinkling of magic throughout, the sense of humour, the banter between the MCs, the secondary characters.
My only complaint is that the initial central plot point felt like it took the back seat to the relationship once that started rolling along. I’d have liked a better balance. Perhaps the book needed to be a bit longer? The ending felt rushed.
Good October-y romantic fun. I’d happily read it again!
