A witch who can talk to ghosts, a mysterious and mischievous book, three sisters and their deliciously cozy bookshop, Magic and a Dragon as you’ve never seen them before, a beautiful town kept secret, and much more awaits in Paige Crutcher’s What Became of Magic—a romantic fantasy about the loneliness of childhood when you don’t belong, the healing power of found family, and the magic that’s been inside us all along. Though I occasionally felt a bit lost with the plot and world-building and the romance wasn’t specifically for me, I really enjoy spending time in the enchanting places that Crutcher builds—bookshops with secret rooms, cozy cottages, and magical forests, of course, but also ill-fated slumber parties and heartbreaking bathroom stalls too!
