Synopsis

A witchy, atmospheric lesbian contemporary romance set in Salem—from the acclaimed author of Fans of the Impossible Life. Perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Becky Albertalli.

Seventeen-year-old Eleanor is the last person in Salem to believe in witchcraft—or to think that her life could be transformed by mysterious forces. After losing her best friend and first love, Chloe, Eleanor has spent the past year in a haze, vowing to stay away from anything resembling romance.

But when a handwritten guide to tarot arrives in the mail at the witchy souvenir store where Eleanor works, it seems to bring with it the message that magic is about to enter her life. Cynical Eleanor is quick to dismiss this promise, until real-life witch Pix shows up with an unusual invitation. Inspired by the magic and mystery of the tarot, Eleanor decides to open herself up to Pix and her coven of witches, and even to the possibility of a new romance.

But Eleanor’s complicated history continues to haunt her. She will have to reckon with the old ghosts that threaten to destroy everything, even her chance at new love.

Improbable Magic for Cynical Witches is an atmospheric and romantic coming-of-age about learning to make peace with the past in order to accept the beauty of the present.

She’s guarded her heart for a year. Can a coven of witches—and one enchanting girl named Pix—show her how to let magic in?

• A Modern Witchy Romance: Set in Salem, where a cynical girl who works in a souvenir shop meets an enchanting, real-life witch who might just make her believe in magic—and love—again.
• Found Family: Eleanor has been on her own for too long. But when Pix invites her into a coven of queer teen witches, she might finally find a place where she belongs.
• Tarot and Real-World Magic: When a mysterious tarot guide shows up in the mail, it sets Eleanor on a new path. This is a story woven with the magic of the major arcana, from The Fool’s first step to The World.
• Cynic Meets True Believer: Still haunted by the loss of her first love, Eleanor will have to confront her old ghosts before she can accept a new, magical future with Pix.
