This was such a cute and fun read for spooky season! It has all the things I love, books and cats. I love that the MMC was also a bit nerdy.
The dialogue drove me nuts at times. The author uses elipses in the dialogue quite often. Dashes are also used, the characters seem to stutter a lot - which would be fine if either main character was said to actually have a stutter. Instead, it's more like they're always super timid/shy and are walking on egg shells around each other.
Otherwise, this was a very sweet book and I do recommend for those looking for a fun, quick read about witches and a bookstore. I'm excited to watch this author grow!
