As a kid who grew up with The Babysitter's Club and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, how could I not pick up the book Spells Like Teen Spirit? This is the last book in the series, so don't do what I did and start here. The first book is The Babysitters Coven and you can snag that in paperback right away. The story focuses on Esme and Cassandra, supernaturally gifted teens that are known as "Sitters." Yeah, kind of like Slayers in the Buffyverse. Their job is to protect the innocent from absolute evil.  Esme spends her days watching after toddlers, and at night hunting demons.  With her family now in the know, she's got that worry off her shoulders, but unfortunately Esme just can't get a break. She decided to have a stay-cation with Cassandra at a place called the Summit, but unfortunately trouble isn't going to leave her alone that easy.

While the series is designed for Gen Z, Millennials eat your heart out. The series is smart and fun, and feels very familiar to a generation raised on Sabrina the Teenage Witch, The Babysitters Club, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Spells Like Teen Spirit is available now.

Such a fun series. I love these girls and the way they have come together as friends and how they have come into their powers.
I would have liked to see a bit more of an ending in this one though, given that this is meant to be the final book of the trilogy? There are some loose ends that still need tying up. Unless there is going to be another trilogy... there are still a lot of adventures and stories left for the sitters.

I was excited to finish the Babysitters Coven series with Spells Like Teen Spirit! The only downside was that it didn't feel fully complete after finishing it?? It was just as fun as the other two, but a bit disappointing/let down as a finisher.

This was really the strongest installment in the series, and very funny. But it spent more time on new questions than on answers, which was a little strange as a series ender, since it only implied the solutions to series-long problems, and left a lot of the expected closure up to the imagination.
