This was another charming and uniquely crafted book from an author whose voice I’ve come to really appreciate, especially after loving her first work, The Rural Diaries. Morgan has a way of telling her story that feels genuine and effortlessly captivating, with a gravitational pull all her own—she’s not just “Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s wife,” but a storyteller in her own right. Though Grimoire Girl didn’t fully resonate with me on a personal level, it was still an entertaining and enjoyable read, packed with her signature authenticity.
I particularly enjoyed how she pieced together her stories in this format, blending magical elements with her real-life reflections. It’s the kind of book that I hope my daughter will read one day, finding inspiration in its themes of empowerment and self-discovery. It’s a creative, heartfelt work, and while it might not speak directly to everyone, it’s undeniably well-written and deeply personal.
