One stormy summer night, Olive and her best friend, Rose, begin to lose things. It starts with simple items like hair clips and jewellery, but soon it’s clear that Rose has lost something bigger; something she won’t talk about.
Then Olive meets three wild, mysterious strangers: Ivy, Hazel and Rowan. Like Rose, they’re mourning losses - and holding tight to secrets.
When they discover the ancient spellbook, full of hand-inked charms to conjure back lost things, they realise it might be their chance to set everything right. Unless it’s leading them towards secrets that were never meant to be found . . .

MY REVIEW
I had so much wanted to enjoy this book. Anything to do with witches, supernatural or spellbooks always stand out to me that I need to give it a go. I think this is very much one of those novels that just wasn't for me. I have given this three stars because it was ok and because I did enjoy the writing style; so will look out for other novels by this author and will give them a try.
For me, this story lacked a catch. Something in the plot or a certain character that would suck me into the story, intrigue me to the point where I need to read more to find out what is going on. That just didn't happen for me here. I haven't looked at other reviews for this book yet but will certainly do that once I have finished this so I am not sure how others have found this.
