Rewitched
Rewitched #1
by Lucy Jane Wood
Ace, $19.00, 384pp
Published: September 2024

Belladonna Blackthorn hasn't lost her magical spark, precisely . . . but she hasn't seen it in a while either.

With her witchcraft under wraps and a toxic boss making her days miserable, Belle is struggling to keep her beloved Lunar Books afloat and just make it through the day. The last thing she has time for is perfecting her magic.

So when her thirtieth birthday brings a summons from her coven and a trial that tests her worthiness as a witch, Belle fears the worst. With only the month of October left to prove herself or risk losing her magic forever, Belle will need all the help she can get-from the women in her life, from an unlikely mentor figure and even from an infuriating coven watchman who's sworn to protect her…

In Rewitched by Lucy Jane Wood, the author has created a charming and spellbinding story about embracing your true self and all the magic within you. I absolutely adored this novel and it's not just because my birthday is the same day as Belladonna. Part of the charm in this story lies in the way Belladonna fights for her magic and for herself even when it's difficult.

Belladonna is a charming character who struggles in believing in herself. And as she realizes she may lose her magic for good, she begins fighting for herself. What's even better is that she finds family along the way and ends up fighting for her friends as much as for herself. She learns to believe in herself and follow her instincts. And the twists and turns of the story will keep you on the edge of your seat as you realize not all is as it seems. From coziness to a climatic magical battle, this is a beautiful story about love and found family.

If you like stories about magic and witches, you will love this charming and spellbinding story by Lucy Jane Wood. I love the way she emphasizes believing in yourself, in love and found family, and in embracing your magic and your truth. Even without magic, I think all of us could use a dose of what's in Rewitched. It is positively magical.

Rating: 5 out of 5 tomes ~~ Andrea Rittschof
