Story
Hannah's a witch, but not the kind you're thinking of. She's an Elemental with the power to control fire, earth, water, and air. But even though she lives in Salem, MA, her magic is a secret she has to keep to herself. So, Hannah spends most of her time avoiding her ex-girlfriend (and fellow Elemental Witch) Veronica, hanging out with her best friend, and working at the Fly by Night Cauldron selling candles and crystals to tourists, goths, and local Wiccans. Then evidence of dark magic begins to appear all over Salem, and Hannah's sure it's the work of a deadly Blood Witch.

Story
Seventeen-year-old Aderyn ("Ryn") only cares about two things: her family and her family's graveyard. And right now, both are in dire straits. Since the death of their parents, Ryn and her siblings have been scraping together a meager existence as gravediggers in the remote village of Colbren, which sits at the foot of a harsh and deadly mountain range that was once home to the fae. The problem with being a gravedigger in Colbren, though, is that the dead don't always stay dead.

Taken in by the sisters of the Ursuline convent in the middle of the carnival season, Celine is quickly enraptured by the vibrant city, from its music to its fancy soirées and even its danger.

Story
At the very southern tip of South America looms an isolated finishing school. Legend has it that the land will curse those who settle there. But for Mavi - a bold Buenos Aires native fleeing the military regime that took her mother - it offers an escape to a new life as a young teacher to Argentina’s elite girls. Mavi tries to embrace the strangeness of the imposing house - despite warnings not to roam at night, threats from an enigmatic young man, and rumors of mysterious Others. But one of Mavi’s 10 students is missing, and students and teachers begin to behave as if possessed.

Story
When someone burns down the home of the school janitor and he dies in the blaze, everyone in Addamsville, Indiana, points a finger at Zora. Never mind that Zora has been on the straight and narrow since her father was thrown in jail. With everyone looking for evidence against her, her only choice is to uncover the identity of the real killer. There’s one big problem - Zora has no leads. No one does. Addamsville has a history of tragedy, and 30 years ago a similar string of fires left several townspeople dead. The arsonist was never caught.

Story
It's been 18 months since the Raxter School for Girls was put under quarantine, since the Tox hit and pulled Hetty's life out from under her. It started slow. First the teachers died, one by one. Then it began to infect the students, turning their bodies strange and foreign. Now, left to fend for themselves on their island home, the girls don't dare wander outside the school's fence, where the Tox has made the woods wild and dangerous. They wait for the cure they were promised as the Tox seeps into everything. But when Byatt goes missing, Hetty will do anything to find her.

Rumored to be a witch, only Nora Walker knows the truth. She and the Walker women before her have always shared a special connection with the woods. And it’s this special connection that leads Nora to Oliver Huntsman - the same boy who disappeared from the Camp for Wayward Boys weeks ago - and in the middle of the worst snowstorm in years. He should be dead, but here he is alive, and left in the woods with no memory of the time he’d been missing.

Story
For generations, the Seven Prophets guided humanity. Using their visions of the future, they ended wars and united nations - until the day, 100 years ago, when the Prophets disappeared. All they left behind was one final, secret prophecy, foretelling an Age of Darkness and the birth of a new Prophet who could be the world’s salvation...or the cause of its destruction. Five souls are on a collision course: A prince exiled from his kingdom. A ruthless killer. A once-faithful leader torn between his duty and his heart. A reckless gambler. And a dying girl on the verge of giving up.

Story
Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

Publisher's Summary
Adventures in Babysitting meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer in this funny, action-packed novel about a coven of witchy babysitters who realize their calling to protect the innocent and save the world from an onslaught of evil.
Seventeen-year-old Esme Pearl has a babysitters club. She knows it's kinda lame, but what else is she supposed to do? Get a job? Gross. Besides, Esme likes babysitting, and she's good at it.
And lately, Esme needs all the cash she can get, because it seems like destruction follows her wherever she goes. Let's just say she owes some people a new tree.
Enter Cassandra Heaven. She's Instagram-model hot, dresses like she found her clothes in a dumpster, and has a rebellious streak as gnarly as the cafeteria cooking. So why is Cassandra willing to do anything, even take on a potty-training two-year-old, to join Esme's babysitters club?
The answer lies in a mysterious note Cassandra's mother left her: "Find the babysitters. Love, Mom."
Turns out, Esme and Cassandra have more in common than they think, and they're about to discover what being a babysitter really means: a heroic lineage of superpowers, magic rituals, and saving the innocent from seriously terrifying evil. And all before the parents get home.
"The Baby-Sitters Club...but spooky." (Cosmopolitan)
"A high-energy series starter that's plenty of fun." (Booklist)
"Combines everything you love." (Man Repeller)

Obsessed!
I’m very happy that this is the first in a series as it gives me major Buffy the Vampire Slayer vibes but set now rather than the 90s though even the fashion is heavily inspired by the 90s. It’s definitely worth getting, especially if you enjoyed “My Best Friend’s Exorcism” by Grady Hendrix and/or “Undead Girl Gang” by Lily Anderson. Definitely one I’ll revisit each Halloween now.

Interesting...
That title pretty much sums up my view on this book. It was good, and weird. I think there may have been some forced relationships to make it work, You may be able to tell the almost rushed feeling the author had from trying to take several idea points and smash them into a book. I did like it in the end, but I am not sure really why I do. Like I said, it is interesting.
This isn't really one that I think I would recommend unless they liked The Babysitters Club and Twilight.

Lighthearted and fun for adults too! *Spoiler Free*
This was a lighthearted and fun romp that also handled some heavy subjects but with ease. Aimed at the YA crowd mainly, I as an adult enjoyed it and the nods to the Babysitters Club books, the originals of which I remember saving up to buy as a kid waiting on baited breath for them to come out. There’s also some great literary and music nods that are picked up by adults in a unique, but fun, manner.
This is not your standard cookie cutter YA paranormal fiction. With a different spin on your normal “teen witch gets powers” it’s unique and kept me engaged.
This book is also decently amusing. It doesn’t try too hard.
Overall, it kept me wanting to hear more, binging on it. I would definitely buy more from this author, and I greatly enjoyed the narration as well. As an adult that has amassed an intensely massive library of both physical, kindle, ePub & now audiobooks, the fact that I want more of this story is high praise indeed!
TL;DR, if you enjoy humorous paranormal fiction with a unique and nods to pop culture throughout the past, you will not be disappointed!

Love this book for its creativity and humor.
The reader (Phoebe Strole) relays Kate Williams’ witty banter with just the right pace and tone. Williams is the type of author who somehow perfectly evokes my own inner dialogue with a universality that transcends my YA years. Can’t wait for the next Babysitters Coven adventure!
