Part Willy Wonka, part magical realism, and wholly moving. It broke my heart and patched it over and reminded me that even as an adult, if you look hard enough, you can find the child still inside you - Jodi PIcoult on THE WISHING GAME

Meg Shaffer continues to surprise and delight me with each book she writes. The Book Witch mixes romance and mystery and a deep appreciation of the power of stories to create the perfect love letter to readers (and writers) everywhere.

I loved it! - Laurie Gilmore, author of THE PUMPKIN SPICE CAFE

The Book Witch feels like falling through an incredibly fun and twisty rabbit hole while wrapped in a warm blanket and sipping your favorite cup of tea.
