But her newfound magic and independence come with a No one can fall in love with the Honey Witch.

My Review: I don’t know where to begin in describing the beauty of this book. I laughed, I cried, I took notes for my therapist. 

Sydney J. Shields did a wonderful job in showing the reader how no matter who you are or what you’ve been through, one can always believe in magic. 

This book has been healing for my heart and is a balm for every kid who was made to feel like a freak growing up or that they didn’t belong.
