The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina meets The Craft when modern witches must save teens stolen by an ancient demon in this YA fantasy-thriller debut. Dan and Liss are witches. The Black Book granted them that power. Harnessing that power feels good, especially when everything in their lives makes them feel powerless. During a spell gone wrong, Liss's boyfriend is snatched away by an evil entity and presumed dead. Dan and Liss's friendship dies that night, too. How can they practice magic after the darkness that they conjured? Months later, Liss discovers that her boyfriend is alive, trapped underground in the grips of an ancient force. She must save him, and she needs Dan and the power of The Black Book to do so. Dan is quickly sucked back into Liss's orbit and pushes away her best friend, Alexa. But Alexa has some big secrets she's hiding and her own unique magical disaster to deal with. When another teenager disappears, the girls know it's no coincidence. What greedy magic have they awakened? And what does it want with these teens it has stolen? Set in the atmospheric wilds of California's northern coast, Sasha Laurens's thrilling debut novel is about the complications of friendship, how to take back power, and how to embrace the darkness that lives within us all.

Sometimes the only way to get justice is to make it for yourself. Many modern witches believe that you should only use magic to bring positive energy into the world, and most spell books teach you those types of spells. This spell book is different. This spell book is wicked. There are times when you will be hurt by someone you loved, betrayed by someone you trusted, maligned by someone you thought was your friend. Times when the magic of light and love just will not do. Thalia Thorne is an experienced witch and falls firmly into the camp that knows that there is no such thing as "white magic" or "black magic". Magic is what you turn to when mundane methods have failed or just won't work. If you're not pushing back against those who would walk all over you, then you're just going to end up being a doormat. This spell book will teach you how to make your own justice and stand up for yourself. For example, you'll find: Agony of Acne Curse - to give someone a pimple Sour Break Up Spell - to end a relationship Banish Your Ex Hex - to drive them away forever Business Butcher Curse - to destroy a business Liar's Lamentation - to find out who has been spreading lies And over 50 other spells that use simple ingredients and provide step-by-step directions that a beginner can follow. The next time someone wrongs you, will you turn the other cheek? Or will you be wicked?
