![]() Cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. This was delightful! I really loved the world, the characters, and the first person narration. Special shout out to how bisexuality is just considered normal. The structure of how magic runs this town is going to make it a fun series. Payback’s a Witch The Witches of Thistle Grove, Book 1 I Picked Up This Book Because: I’m not even sure, probably the hype. Media Type: Audiobook Source: Library Dates Read: 11/24/2022 - 11/27/2022 Stars: DNF - No rating Narrator(s): Jeremy Carlisle Parker The Characters: Emmy Harlow: Talia Avramov: The Story: I’m not sure why I wasn’t vibing with this story but I barely wanted to pick it up. The characters fell flat for me and I could care less about who wins their tournament. It could also be a mood I’m in. I do feel like at another time I could really like the story. This was a cute, fun read. Nothing too deep but still entertaining. It's really chick lit with a side of magic and clearly the beginning of a new series. I was surprised to find a "reader's question guide" at the end of the book since it was pretty basic but I guess there is always something to discuss regarding relationships. A very light read about a woman returning to the magical town she left, in order to be the arbiter of magical combat between the scions of the magical families that founded the town. She left to avoid her familys status as the weakest family of witches amongst the founders, and her return is an unwitting quest to reclaim the self she abandoned, and understand her true role in creating and maintaining the magical town that she truly loves. Pretty nice atmosphere, the equivalent of scrolling through an Instagram feed around halloween. The worldbuilding was ok, I appreciated the matter of fact way bisexuality was handled (ie. noone cared) and the romance was handled well. A competently written story, I just didn’t care very much about the story, or the characters. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina meets The L Word in this fresh, sizzling New York Times bestselling rom-com by Lana Harper. Emmy Harlow is a witch but not a very powerful one--in part because she hasn't been home to the magical town of Thistle Grove in years. Her self-imposed exile has a lot to do with a complicated family history and a desire to forge her own way in the world, and only the very tiniest bit to do with Gareth Blackmoore, heir to the most powerful magical family in town and casual breaker of hearts and destroyer of dreams. But when a spellcasting tournament that her family serves as arbiters for approaches, it turns out the pull of tradition (or the truly impressive parental guilt trip that comes with it) is strong enough to bring Emmy back. She's determined to do her familial duty; spend some quality time with her best friend, Linden Thorn; and get back to her real life in Chicago. On her first night home, Emmy runs into Talia Avramov--an all-around badass adept in the darker magical arts--who is fresh off a bad breakup . . . with Gareth Blackmoore. Talia had let herself be charmed, only to discover that Gareth was also seeing Linden--unbeknownst to either of them. And now she and Linden want revenge. Only one question stands: Is Emmy in? But most concerning of all: Why can't she stop thinking about the terrifyingly competent, devastatingly gorgeous, wickedly charming Talia Avramov? No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

When Emmy returns home to Thislte Grove after a prolonged absence, she conspires with two other friends to get revenge on their mutual ex. And the revenge is tied into the Gauntlet, a tournament of the local witch families to decide which one will be ascendant.
Diverting. I imagined Thistle Grove as Salem meets Branson in the middle of Illinois. Read a few chapters of the sequel (provided in the ARC)l, however, and was not impressed. (
