I read The Witchery two years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it! There was Black girl witches, allegory, symbolism, found family, a touch of romance, and queer rep. I was impatiently waiting for book two to release, Shadow Coven, and never got around to writing my review for book one. So of course, when Shadow Coven released this year, I had to reread The Witchery! I enjoyed it as much the second time around and definitely recommend it for anyone who enjoys magical realism, magic schools, cursed towns, hauntings, and the above-mentioned content! It’s also a perfect fall read for that back to school feel and witchy realness—four stars!
