I just learned about White Magic on Lindsay Merbaum’s Substack and I plan to read this season! Your recommendation got me to finally buy it.

Going to try White Magic - seemed like a tough one to describe - more than one genre going on there and A Dreadful Splendor… Edgar Award…hmm!

It's a tricky one to explain — but worth it.

For some reason, Jackal keeps calling to me, but it seems scary so I've skipped it. (You've maybe -- maybe -- convinced me to try it 😂)

It was my one horror book for the year.

Oooh, White Magic sounds sooooo good. It’s been on my list for ages and I never remember to grab it--but definitely will this year.

And thank you for sharing my post!! 💜
