Charmed Life (Wildseed Witch Book 2) - by Marti Dumas (Hardcover)
Now back at Riverbend Middle, social media loving tween Hasani tries to prove her former friend, and fellow witch, LaToya, is responsible for the recent chaos at school.
Book Synopsis
Inspired by creole traditions, Charmed Life is the second book in Marti Dumas's fun, middle-grade contemporary fantasy Wildseed Witch series with an all BIPOC cast, about a social media-loving tween--and witch!
After a summer of being the worst witch at a fancy witch school, Hasani can't wait to get back to the peace and normalcy of Riverbend Middle where she knows all the rules and is destined to be captain of the Mathletes. There are a few little hiccups to work out--like how she's going to tell her best friend that she's a witch--but even though the other two members of Hasani's coven have joined her friend group and her school, there's no reason to think that eighth grade won't be smooth sailing . . . that is until her former friend (and fellow witch) LaToya shows up.
LaToya starts trying to take her friends and make Hasani seem like the bad guy. To make matters worse, strange things begin happening around the school--including a termite infestation--and Hasani is so sure that LaToya is to blame. However, when Miss Lafleur comes to visit to help deal with the termites and investigate the magic, she helps Hasani to channel her powers more and realize just how strong her magic has become.
But Miss Lafleur also isn't convinced that LaToya could have caused all this chaos on her own--so Hasani sets out to prove it, and heads to a magical market, 3Thirteen, to find the ingredients she needs to do so. But in all her focus on proving she's right and learning more about her magic, is Hasani losing sight of the people and things that are most important to her?

Reviews for "The Enigma of Time: Unfolding the History of the Magical Enchanted Glade"
1. John - 1 star
I was really disappointed with the "Magical Enchanted Glade." The description made it seem like it would be an immersive experience where you could truly escape reality, but instead, it felt more like a cheaply decorated children's playground. The "magical" elements were gimmicky and poorly executed, making it difficult to suspend disbelief and enjoy the experience. Overall, I found it to be a waste of time and money.
2. Emma - 2 stars
I had high hopes for the "Magical Enchanted Glade," but sadly, it fell short of my expectations. The staff were not very friendly or enthusiastic, which immediately put a damper on the experience. Additionally, the overall design and theming felt outdated and cliche, lacking the whimsy and enchantment that was promised. While there were a few moments that were somewhat enjoyable, I left feeling underwhelmed and unimpressed.
3. Sarah - 2 stars
I was invited to visit the "Magical Enchanted Glade" and was excited to see what it had to offer. However, I found the whole experience to be quite mundane. The attractions were basic and uninteresting, with little effort put into creating a truly enchanting atmosphere. It felt like a rushed and half-hearted attempt at a magical experience. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a truly immersive and memorable experience.
4. Mark - 1 star
My visit to the "Magical Enchanted Glade" was a complete letdown. The designs and decorations were shoddy and in desperate need of repair. It was clear that the owners had not put much effort or care into maintaining the place. The whole experience felt cheap and tacky, which is not what I had expected for the price of admission. Save your money and visit a more well-maintained and truly magical attraction instead.
