This book was so whimsical and yet profound at the same time. The whimsy of the magic pulls you right in, but the true star of the show (at least for me!) was the power of sisterhood. Even the love interest and spice took a backseat to it. I just loved how the sisterhood was woven into every single page.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next witchy read!!

I’m really tired of content not being warned. If I wanted a book with lgbtq characters, I’d search for it but I don’t and I don’t appreciate that there’s no labels or filters where I can’t eliminate those books any longer. This book sells itself in the synopsis as if the main character has chemistry with a man only but we find out after two pages that she’s bi. If a reader is interested in that it’s their choice but I would like to know it’s in there to begin with so I don’t request the book and mess with my feedback status.

*Spells, Strings, and Forgotten Things* by Breanne Randall is a captivating blend of magic, mystery, and romance set in the charming town of Gold Springs. Calliope Petridi and her sisters guard their magical secrets fiercely, knowing that every spell comes at the cost of a precious memory. With her own heartache and the burden of her magic weighing heavily on her, Calliope longs to forget the pain of her past.

The story takes an exciting turn when an ancient evil resurfaces in Gold Springs, threatening to unravel the fragile bond between Calliope and her sisters. In the midst of this chaos, Calliope accidentally binds herself to a rival coven’s charismatic and enigmatic leader, adding a tantalizing layer of romance and tension to the plot.

Breanne Randall excels in creating a richly atmospheric world where magic and memories intertwine. The chemistry between Calliope and her new, infuriatingly handsome partner is electric, and their interactions are a highlight of the book. The emotional depth of Calliope’s struggle with her past and her relationships adds a powerful layer to the story, making her journey both compelling and relatable.

The novel’s mix of family drama, ancient secrets, and magical intrigue keeps you hooked from start to finish. It’s a story full of twists and turns, where the stakes are high and the characters are richly developed. *Spells, Strings, and Forgotten Things* is a must-read for fans of magical realism and emotional storytelling, and I’m looking forward to seeing what Breanne Randall has in store next!
