THE FLOWER BOWL SPELL
by Olivia Boler
Blurb:
Journalist Memphis Zhang isn’t ashamed of her Wiccan
upbringing—in fact, she’s proud to be one of a few Chinese American witches in
San Francisco, and maybe the world. Unlike the well-meaning but basically
powerless Wiccans in her disbanded coven, Memphis can see fairies, read auras,
and cast spells that actually work—even though she concocts them with
ingredients like Nutella and antiperspirant. Yet after a friend she tries to
protect is brutally killed, Memphis, full of guilt, abandons magick to lead a “normal”
life.
The appearance, however, of her dead friend’s attractive rock star
brother—as well as a fairy in a subway tunnel—suggest that magick is not done
with her. Reluctantly, Memphis finds herself dragged back into the world of
urban magick, trying to stop a power-hungry witch from using the dangerous
Flower Bowl Spell and killing the people Memphis loves—and maybe even Memphis
herself.
Praise
for THE FLOWER BOWL SPELL:
"Olivia Boler's The Flower Bowl Spell is a
genre-bending ride with sexy rock stars, Californian witches, children with
potentially otherworldly gifts, and the occasional fairy. But it is also a
story of identity, of the sometimes warring facets that make and shape a human
being. Beautifully written, witty, and brimming with both ordinary and
fantastical life, The Flower Bowl Spell will charm readers
everywhere." -- Siobhan Fallon, author of You Know When the Men Are
Gone

hip contemporary coast-to-coast America...It is a fine first novel, rich in
paradox and detail."
