A Letter to Three Witches by Elizabeth Bass was FUN! This book is perfect for spooky season! Is a witch family still witchy if they aren’t allowed to perform magic? Enter the cupcake and cocktail coven. When the mean cousin sends a letter detailing each witch sparks will fly and toad transformations will happen. Can the cousins survive this week or will wicked witch of the west be their undoing?

The book is cute and syrupy. Almost too sweet, if I'm being honest. The main characters are like able. The situations are quirky, if a bit unbelievable and jumpy plot wise. None of the love interests hold string root for power. Buy, it's a cute witchy read, and the premise of the witch society is interesting. Also enjoyed the few limited chapters from Gris best.

Have you ever wonder what a sitcom version of Practical Magic would look like? Well this book is exactly that for me.

This is a story of three cousins Gwen, Trudy, and Milo. As well as Gwen's adopted sister Tannith. We find out at the beginning of the story that Gwen's whole family is forbidden from using their magic due to some action of their ancestors. There are also people called watchers who are tasked with making sure that people like Gwen and her family are not using their magic. As of right now I think this is supposed to be a standalone.

This is definetly a rom-com type of story with a little bit of some magical elements thrown in to add flavor. I think that the rom-com elements of the story were right on par with other books such as One Night on the Island by Josie Silver. I think that anyone going into this book thinking that it is a paranormal or fantasy book would be sadly mistaken.

I think that the characters all had their issues but I did enjoy seeing a family that really did try to look out for one another. I think for me this was less of a character driven story so I didn't really feel a strong connection to any of the main characters.

I think that this is definetly one of those stories that grips you right from the beginning and keeps you wondering what is going to happen next. I think that this book did a great job of showing how sometimes the family that is forced upon you isn't one that you have to keep forever. I think that the story wrapped up nicely but also left things in a place that if the author ever wanted to continue on with some of theses characters stories that they could.

I think that the pacing was one of the strongest parts of this book because it was a one sitting read for me. I couldn't put it down because I wanted to know how everything would turn out.

I think that the authors writing style was very straightforward. As someone who loves flowery writting occasionally I still enjoyed how straightforward the writing was and how compelling the author's voice was to the overall enjoyment of the story.

I don't think that this is a story I would pick up again but I could see me reaching for this author when I was in the mood for a quick fun read.

While not exactly what I expected, this was a fun read, An entertaining, quick read that’s lighthearted and full of wacky characters, There was a lot going on, but I enjoyed the writing style and fast pace. *I received an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy reading this book.
I found the concept quite fun, but sadly I was very bored reading it.

Am I supposed to care that this chick ran off with one of their boyfriends? Cause Gwen sure didn’t care. How is that the whole premise and plot.

I couldn’t have been more bored. The plot was all over the place and directionless. Really wasn’t here for the awkward cheating.

I think this was going for whimsical and fun but it was just weird and boring.

This book was a romp. Lots of fun and I loved the twists and turns.
This isn’t my usual style so struggled to get started but once I settled in I loved it.
Thank you netgalley for this
Arc.

This is a lighthearted paranormal romance which I enjoyed for the most part. This book had unique pets and eccentric family component with a good deal of quirkiness. But I felt underwhelmed by this book. I felt like something was missing from the story. The starting was quite slow and it took some time to finally get the plot moving. Overall, a decent book. Would definitely recommend!

Sometimes you just want to read something fun that doesn't make any sense. This book was one of those times. I didn't hate it but also didn't enjoy it because I was so confused. I know some scenarios can just be boiled down to "because romance" but why would Tannith have this plan in the first place, it seemed mean and was never really explained. Also recently there have been a handful of romance books where the male love interest is supposed to be all dreamy and caring but I just find them creepy. Jeremy popping up in the middle of the night is just a giant red flag, not romantic at all.

Magical mishaps abound in this light witchy read. Complete with a family curse, a mean sister, and a talking cat, this wild ride of a book was entertaining although not quite as fulfilling as I had hoped. This one was billed as Bewitched meets Practical Magic, but read much more like the former and not much like the latter.

This was such a little witchy book. Deff practical magic meets bewitched with a little bit of love mixed in. I just wish the relationship between the sisters and cousins were a little better and if they were all adults to lines act like adults. Other than that solid read just could have been better. Thank you netgalley for letting me review this book

This book was the perfect mix of Halloween and romance. A cute rom-com that reminded me of Practical Magic and a quirky side that reminded me of Halloweentown. I loved that this book wasn’t super predictable and will definitely be rereading closer to Halloween for the fall vibes.

This just wasn't for me, I had a hard time really getting invested in the beginning, but I loved the concept and it was a nice change to read paranormal done in a lighter way.

I love how so many things happened in the book. I could not keep myself from the book because it was so good

A Letter to Three Witches is a fun, light-hearted read. This is the perfect book to get you into the spooky season, particularly for those who don't like scary reads. I enjoyed the banter between the characters and the overall plot. Griz, the talking cat, was by far my favorite part of the book! Thank you, NetGalley and Kensington, for the arc.

Admittedly, this was not my favourite witchy romance novel.

I felt like the premise was there, but I didn’t feel overall excited about the direction the plot took.

Was it cute? Sure. Was the romance believable? Yes! For some reason, this just didn’t work for me, and that is naturally going to happen with any kind of media.

I with the author all the success possible.

This book started out a little slow as the storyline was unfolding, but once chaos started to ensue, I was all in for the magical ride. A fun story with well written characters that definitely needs a sequel.

While the premise of this book really intrigued me, thr writing just let me down. The dialogue was very simplistic, and the characters were juvenile. I'd still recommend this book for someone who wants to read some fun cat content, but if you want a romantic witchy read... this just isn't it.

This books is a Paranormal romance on the lighter side. It started off a bit slow (whoch is not necessarily a negative thing) and I quickly foud myself enjoyeding the its lighheartedness and humorous fun but my favorite part was the cat's POV! I find that truly original.

This is the perfect book to pass the time.

This book was very cute and I loved the family aspect. It did go a little slow for me and I wanted a little more magic.
