Description

From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic 

For as long as history can remember, there have been three Petridi sisters. Three sisters whose legacy is to protect the town from dark magic and other covens of ill-intent. For where magic gathers, there will be those who seek to claim it.

It’s a thankless task for a town that knows nothing of magic, and the price of the sisters' magic is great: memories. The more powerful the magic, the greater the memory required.

Luckily, all Calliope Petridi wants to do is forget. Forget her judgmental oldest sister, Thalia, who refuses to do magic because of the cost. Forget how her other sister Eurydice only uses small magic for small memories, yet her spells are still more powerful. Forget about growing up with a grimoire that was more of a parent than their mother or father. Forget about the very cost of her magic. And most of all, forget the way the love of her life shattered her heart two years ago.

But something is coming. Something that is slowly fraying the strings of protections that generations of Petridi sisters have put in place...

Charmed meets The Notebook, SPELLS, STRINGS, AND FORGOTTEN THINGS is a thrilling tale of magic, sisterhood, and self-discovery.

Cosy, witchy vibes that are perfect for this time of year! I loved the characters and the storyline and I was fully hooked from the very beginning! A wonderfully created story!

Thank you to NetGalley & Random House Publishing for the ARC (my first ARC!!!) 🙌✨

SS&FT follows the story of the Petridi sisters, three Lightcraft witches, in the aftermath of their mother’s suspicious disappearance and her constant warnings that they need to protect their town. However, a coven of Shadowcraft witches have other plans, and their leader Lucien will stop at nothing to succeed. Will the sisterly bond between the Petridi sisters be enough to protect themselves & their town? Or will their own stubborness cause their downfall?

This book is the epitome of a Charmed x Pride & Prejudice witchy fantasy, which I didn’t initially gel with, but I was enamoured by the end! The sibling relationships throughout the book are so well written & realistic (and reminded me so much of mine & my sisters bond), the romance (the best romances have a shadow man love interest duh!) had me giggling and crying at one point, and I loved the inclusion of the family recipes at the end of the book.

A perfect book to get me in the October mood - Spells, Strings & Forgotten Things is out March 2025 🪄🧵
