Reader reviews for The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches: A romantic cozy fantasy

Review summary

This seller has earned a 4.07 of 5 Stars rating from internet customers.
4.07 / 5 (465 total reviews)

Readers largely received Sangu Mandanna’s novel as a gentle, low?stakes cozy fantasy built around found family and a grump/sunshine romance. Many praised its warmth, humor, and likable ensemble—with frequent comparisons to The House in the Cerulean Sea—and several highlighted the engaging audiobook narration. Critiques focused on tell?heavy, sometimes juvenile prose, a predictable plot, overly precocious children, and an awkwardly placed late sex scene; some also wanted deeper world?building or less sweetness. Overall, it’s seen as a pleasant, seasonal read for romance?friendly audiences rather than fans seeking dense or high?stakes fantasy.

From the publisher

"This is one of my coziest reads of the last year, and I find myself thinking about its enchanted setting all the time."-Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author

USA TODAY BESTSELLER - A warm and uplifting novel about an isolated witch whose opportunity to embrace a quirky new family--and a new love--changes the course of her life.

As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic, keep her head down, and stay away from other witches so their powers don't mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she's used to being alone and she follows the rules...with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos "pretending" to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously.

But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long-suffering caretakers, and...Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he's concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat.

As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn't the only danger in the world, and when peril comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn't know she was looking for....
