Publisher Description

“No one builds worlds like Melissa Marr.” ―Charlaine Harris, New York Times bestselling author on Graveminder

The Magicians meets One Last Stop in this brand-new fantasy romance Remedial Magic, about an unassuming librarian who 1) has fallen in love with a powerful witch; 2) has discovered that she is a witch; and 3) must attend magical community college to learn how to save her new world from complete destruction by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Marr!

Ellie loves working in her local library in the small town of Ligonier. She loves baking scones and investigating the mysterious and captivating in her spare time. And there is nothing more mysterious and captivating than the intriguingly beautiful, too properly dressed woman sipping tea in her library who has appeared as if out of nowhere. The pull between them is undeniable, and Ellie is not sure that she wants to resist.

Prospero, a powerful witch from the magical land of Crenshaw, is often accused of being… ruthless in her goals and ambitions. But she is driven to save her dying homeland, and a prophecy tells her that Ellie is the key. Unbeknownst to Ellie, her powers have not yet awakened. But all of that is about to change.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Expressionless Face“Ugh... I'm usually a sucker for different plots and points of view but this was painful to read. Three pages a chapter of mixed emotions and boring hook ups and then switch. My ADHD just couldn't. I'm actually returning it and have never returned a book.”
Bad writingUnengaging charactersUnsatisfying plot
“Not only was this book mismarketed, but the summary isn't at all representative of the book. This is not cozy fantasy, it's just fantasy. It's also a multiple pov book and the marketed storyline is arguably the least important. Most of the characters suffer from mixed and unclear motivations, waffling between wanting to stay and wanting to go, sometimes on the same page. The most frustrating part of this book is that it could have been really good, but the characters, plotting, and world building never really took off.”
“I wouldn't call this a romance. It's more so a bunch of horny people thinking how hot the other person is and eventually banging. There are multiple POVs. Some would say too many. Only reason I gave it 3 stars is cause I had a blast roasting the characters and the questionable decisions they made. Sometimes the writing was funny. If you're expecting a cozy, witchy romance... this isn't it.”
Fast-pacedMagical settingAbuse
“I should have dnf’d this. I hated this. It took me three months to finish. It wasn’t what I thought it would be, the ending was crap and I disliked everyone. The story was all over the place and I’m just angry I read this.”
