Legends & Lattes! What a fun little jaunt that was.

If you liked that one I'd suggest checking out The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches, which is a very similar vibe as a contemporary fantasy. I put off reading it for a bit because contemporary and witches aren't normally my thing but it's really, really great.
