As my introduction to Olivie Blake, it was certainly interesting. The writing was okay though the story ideas were great. I’m excited to read more of Blake’s work and see how her writing matures.

Enjoyed it much more than expected. Wish I could have read more about the last story(the tech one)!
Layout sometimes a little odd but doesn't take away from the experience.

Olivie is no stranger to dazzling us with her fiction, and The Answer You Are Looking For is Yes is NO exception. These stories are infused with magic, personality, and diverse witchy culture. I read this book in pieces so as to savor and not devour. Worth every moment I spent reading. :)

loved it but also kind of hated it. every time i got really into the characters the story ended. i was frustrated by the fact that the female lead just kept falling for the guy she found annoying at first over and over and over again. i think i found 5 or so typos/words missing which made for awkward reading. mistakes happen but it didn’t feel like this had been proofread thoroughly.

Like sinking into a hot bath. Each short story was lovely and quirky and interesting and delightful and all written with the impeccable attention to detail that sets Olivie Blake apart. As always, I will read anything she writes!
