Many thanks to NetGalley, Book Club Girl, and William Morrow for gifting me a digital ARC of VenCo written by Cherie Dimaline in exchange for my honest review - 5 stars!
Lucky St James is trying her best to take care of her elderly grandmother in their tiny Toronto apartment when she learns that they are about to be evicted. Then Lucky finds a strange spoon hidden in a wall, marked with a witch and the word Salem. Lucky is then invited to come for a job interview with VenCo, where she learns that a group of witches has been waiting for her. Now Lucky must find the seventh witch to complete the circle and restore women to their rightful power.
This was such a fun book - I loved Lucky and especially her grandmother, Stella. I want to be Stella when I grow up! I felt like I was going along the road trip, while Lucky hunts for the next spoon and witch. It's also a story of women being there for each other and in community, gathering on each of their strengths. The relationship between Lucky and Stella was just the best. Highly recommended for a fun, empowering read!
