About
"This powerful and diverse collection is perfect for fans of female-led fantasy stories. No damsels in distress to be found here." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
There's nothing more powerful than a witch who believes in herself.
Women accused of witchcraft. Fearsome girls with arcane knowledge. Toil & Trouble features fifteen stories of girls embracing their power, reclaiming their destinies, and using their magic to create, to curse, to cure, to kill . . . and to live.
A young witch uses social media to connect with her astrology clients-and with a NASA-loving girl as cute as she is skeptical. A priestess of death investigates a ritualized murder. A bruja who cures lovesickness might need the remedy herself when she falls for an altar boy. A theater production is turned upside down by a visiting churel. A water witch uses her magic to survive the soldiers who have invaded her desert oasis. And in the near future, a group of girls accused of witchcraft must find their collective power . . . and destroy their captors.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A TEEN WITCH!
