My inner teen is obsessed with this series!! Our foursome comes together once again to defeat an evil lurking in Kilbeg but not all dark forces look obvious.
As the girls enter their final year of school and begin to face the exams that will help determine their future, their friendship is pushed to the breaking point. It doesn’t help that the enemy has infiltrated the school, a former (maybe?) enemy is looking to switch sides, and Roe is beginning to forget the magic they hold & the the ties that bind the foursome together.
This magical, queer, angsty romp through the city of Kilbeg will
keep you on your toes & wondering who can you trust when everything
(and everyone) is changing?
I seriously am so in love with these books & wish they had excited when I was a teenager. But even now, they are allowing pieces of me to be seen with the love and compassion I didn’t have then. Plus who doesn’t love a good book about tarot and witchcraft?
