A Bank Street Best Book of 2021!

A young witch must pass a coming-of-age quest or risk losing her magic forever in this enchanting fantasy -- perfect for fans of Kiki's Delivery Service and Aru Shah and the End of Time.
  Sometimes all you need is a pinch of magic... 

Eva Evergreen is determined to earn the rank of Novice Witch before her thirteenth birthday. If she doesn't, she'll lose her magic forever. For most young witches and wizards, it's a simple enough test:

One: Help your town, do good all around.
Two: Live there for one moon, don't leave too soon.
Three: Fly home by broomstick, the easiest of tricks.

The only problem? Eva only has a pinch of magic. She summons heads of cabbage instead of flowers and gets a sunburn instead of calling down rain. And to add insult to injury, whenever she overuses her magic, she falls asleep.

When she lands in the tranquil coastal town of Auteri, the residents expect a powerful witch, not a semi-magical girl. So Eva comes up with a plan: set up a magical repair shop to aid Auteri and prove she's worthy. She may have more blood than magic, but her "semi-magical fixes" repair the lives of the townspeople in ways they never could have imagined. Only, Eva's bit of magic may not be enough when the biggest magical storm in history threatens the town she's grown to love. Eva must conjure up all of the magic, bravery, and cleverness she can muster or Auteri and her dreams of becoming a witch will wash away with the storm.

This book was an absolute ray of sunshine. Everytime I sat down to read, it was a delight. Eva is the most sincere and loveable protagonist. She just wants to do good, but her magic brings unintentional chaos. I loved how she always thought outside the box to complete her tasks. Its a gentle book, full of love and with a precious little witch with a pinch of magic. The story showcases the power of friendship, how much willpower and support can do and that we all have self-doubt that we sometimes need help to overcome.

Truly magical. No matter how small you feel, how untalented you seem, there's always something only you can do.

A very whimsical and wholesome read. Eva Evergreen is a clever little witch, using not just her powers but her brain (most of the times) too. I really needed this kind of story, where the action is exciting enough for keeping me captivated but not too much for giving me feelings of anxiety.
