Magic + rebellion = 'Toil & Trouble.' Standouts include 'The Truth About Queenie' (bisexual pirate witches!) and 'Daughters of Baba Yaga' (Eastern European folklore with a knife-sharp twist). It’s the kind of book you dog-ear to death.

Ever stumbled upon a book that feels like a witchy hug on a chilly autumn night? That's 'Toil & Trouble' for me—a YA anthology edited by Jessica Spotswood and Tess Sharpe, packed with 16 stories celebrating witchcraft through diverse, feminist lenses. Each tale reimagines magic in modern or historical settings, from rebellious Victorian mediums to contemporary Latina brujas reclaiming their roots. What hooked me wasn’t just the spells but how it frames witchcraft as empowerment—whether it’s queer love in 'The Moonapple Menagerie' or Indigenous resilience in 'The Legend of Stone Mary.' It’s less about cauldrons and more about marginalized voices finding power.

Honestly, I wept over 'The Heart in Her Hands'—a sapphic retelling of 'The Little Mermaid' with sea witches—and cackled at the chaotic energy of 'Death Preferred Her.' The range is wild! Some stories are cozy; others bite like hexes. If you crave magic with depth—where folklore, identity, and rebellion collide—this anthology’s your coven. Bonus points for the gorgeous cover that looks even better under moonlight.

If you’re into witchy vibes but tired of the same old tropes, 'Toil & Trouble' flips the script. Imagine a mix of 'The Craft' meets 'her body and other parties'—but for teens. My favorite? 'Starsong' by Tehlor Kay Mejia, where a bruja’s magic clashes with her mom’s expectations. It’s got that immigrant-family tension wrapped in starlight and cinnamon. The whole book’s like a sampler platter: bite-sized, potent stories where magic isn’t just sparkly—it’s survival. Also, the audiobook narrators? Chef’s kiss.

I lent my copy of 'Toil & Trouble' to my niece, and she wouldn’t give it back—which says everything. It’s not just about witches; it’s about girls who refuse to be silenced. Take 'The One Who Stayed' by Nova Ren Suma: a ghost story where the haunted house is literally patriarchy. Or 'Brew' by Brandy Colbert, where a Black girl’s ancestral tea magic stirs up small-town racism. The anthology doesn’t shy from heavy themes, but it balances them with humor and hope. Perfect for fans of 'the gilded wolves' or anyone who wished 'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina' had more nuance.

How does Toil & Trouble end?

I was completely hooked by 'Toil & Trouble' from the first chapter, and the ending did not disappoint! The final showdown between the protagonists and the ancient coven was intense, blending magic, betrayal, and a surprising twist about the true nature of their powers. The author wrapped up lingering mysteries beautifully—like why the protagonist’s visions were always fragmented—revealing it was her own subconscious trying to protect her from a past trauma. What really stuck with me was the emotional resolution between the two sisters. Their strained relationship finally healed when they combined their magic to break the curse, symbolizing how their differences made them stronger together. The epilogue hinted at a new adventure, leaving me desperate for a sequel!
