VenCo

3.5 stars

Lucky and her grandmother Stella have each other and that's it. Soon, they won't even have their apartment. Lucky hasn't told Stella about the eviction notice yet. Hopefully she will figure something out.
Her grandmother's mental state seems to be declining, so Lucky has to take care of her. Stella recently told her an off the wall story about a secret tunnel in the basement. Even though she thinks it's nonsense, Lucky can't help but be curious. Turns out, it's not nonsense and she finds a spoon with SALEM written on it.
After finding the spoon, everything changes. Someone from a company called VenCo just offered her a job, and told her she's a witch. And that's just the beginning.

I was not enjoying this at the beginning. I'm not a big fan of contemporary settings, but I love witchy books so I continued on. I think the second half was much better than the first. I liked the diverse cast of characters. Stella is my favorite. She's very kooky.

Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for an e-arc.
