  • The follow-up to Garlic and the Vampire is just as adorable as the first book!! After befriending Count, Garlic has gained a bit of confidence. However, she's still struggling with her anxiety and the fact that her body slowly seems to be changing doesn't help with her fear. Much like me, she's terrified of the future and what kind of dread it might bring, especially as a lot is uncertain. Witch Agnes is struggling as well, so Garlic doesn't want to impose with her questions of the future. 
  • A trip to the Magic Market might just be the adventure Garlic needs! It's daunting to her, but she wants to help Witch Agnes gather some special ingredients that can only be found in this market! She tries her best to make the journey and learns a lot about herself. The ending was really sweet & heartwarming 🥰
