queer witches + me = match made in heavenside note: you have no idea how fuckin happy i am right now. all ive ever wanted was a unstoppable girl gang who kiss each other sometimes but are unashamedly themselves. GOD IM SO EXCITED!!
This was my first Sarah Gailey book and I totally understand the hype now; I gobbled this entire thing up in basically one sitting. This gave me all of the friendship / queer girl feels and I liked it A LOT. It wasn't an absolutely perfect read for me (I felt like the ending wrapped up a little blandly if I'm being honest), but the writing and the characters definitely made up for that and I cannot WAIT to go back and check out the rest of Gailey's backlist. GIMME ALL THE QUEER MAGIC-Y THINGS
Star Rating: —> 4.5 StarsUMMMMMM... I am SO IN LOVE RIGHT NOW! THIS BOOK. This book!ThisBOOKthisbookthisbookkkk !Oh my God, you guys. This was absolutely everything.

queer teen witches yet i don’t know why this fell so flat for me )-: Alexis made a guy’s d*ck explode- amazeballs (pun SO intended ;). it was all fun and games until none of them cared for his death? you all got super powers but the first thing you think about is to hide the body?? how about trying to bring this poor guy back to life?? not once did Alexis feel guilty about it. she just whines about not deserving her friends’ love and support *eye roll*. i liked how they could see each other’s ma...
1.5. I am DNFing this at over 50%, which I think is a sufficient quantity for me to justify writing a review. I wanted to like this for many reasons, especially since the summary seemed right up my alley and I found Gailey's first novel disappointing but showed promise. But this did absolutely nothing for me. The characters were all flat and distinguishable only by their talents and physical characteristics; none of them showed any distinct personalities. Their epic friendship was told more than...
Summary Six witches struggle to come to terms with a murder that takes place on prom night leaving them to dispose of the body. The meaning of true friendship is put to the test as the group tries to finish off high school and deal with their true feelings towards each other. Personal Opinion I really loved the diversity of the girl group! Unfortunately I think I might have enjoyed this more as a teenager, but it was not for adult me at all for multiple reasons. The five girls, plus the MC, were...
If you ignore the ending of this book, this was a really great read! I listened to this as an audiobook and I loved how atmospheric it was - perfect for Halloween - and I think that the narrator did a great job in general. I loved seeing the girls using their magic and also the strong bonds between them all. The ending, however, was extremely lackluster and it didn't feel resolved to me at all, just a bit pointless. But I'd still pick myself up a physical copy of this book at some point in the f...
All about strong female friendships and diverse representation.
This was one of my most anticipated books of 2020, but then it got so many mixed reviews I wasn't sure anymore. And now I found the audiobook. (Ugh, me and audiobooks. At this point I might as well be in a relationship with Scribd, because I spend more time with it than with my family lol.) And I couldn't put it down.I understand where the criticism is coming from. There are six girls and there was not enough time to properly establish the relationship between all of them, even if we spent every...
This was really good and I absolutely loved the female friendship but I've just been feeling meh about YA Contemporary in general and I just need to start coming to terms with that. This might've even been a 5-star read if I had read it a couple of years ago but for now I am going to give it 4 stars because I feel like it accurately represents the quality of the story, although my actual enjoyment would be more like 3 stars. But again, that's on me and my current reading taste too.
This book, y’all! I feel like 2020 is the year of reading queer teen witch gangs (see also: The Scapegracers) and I am here for it. This book has dark humor, talking animals, exploding dicks, the most loving friendships, a whole cast of diverse identities, the sweetest queer parents ever, rad and specific magic, an adorable falling in love with a best friend romance, and all the end of high school feels.Sarah Gailey is magic, and I will follow them anywhere. I’m off to read their alternate histo...
This is the kind of book Teen Me would have loved, but that sadly left Adult Me feeling a bit underwhelmed. It's nothing to do with the book, which is wonderful and full of diverse characters and shades of queerness and cool magic and an interesting plot. But I think I've just reached an impasse with the tone of most YA books. However, I would recommend this book to teens in a heartbeat, and I will say that my favorite thing about it was the depiction of female friendship and support.
3.5 stars rounded upI enjoyed this, this was really easy to read. But I kind of wish there had been more - the end was too open for my taste! RTC
