The Okay Witch by Emma Steinkellner

If you can't tell, I love witch books of all shapes and sizes. I want to BE a witch. And this is the absolute perfect modern witch book!

 

Moth Hush loves everything witch. So when she finds out that her mom is a witch and she is too, Moth is absolutely thrilled. She soon figures out that magic isn't as simple as it looks, however. Moth's mother has been hiding from a tumultuous past, and it turns out that Founder's Bluff, the sleepy, East Coast town where Moth lives, is the site of centuries-old witch hunts. Because of this, Moth's mother refuses to teach her any magic, so Moth resorts to reading her mother's secret and also magic diary to explore the magical world, with the help of a reincarnated talking cat. And the mayor of Founder's Bluff, a direct descendant of the witch hunters of the pilgrim days, is on their trail. Moth must balance her mother's past and her own future to become the kind of witch she wants to be.

The Okay Witch is one of my absolute favorite graphic novels. I just love the unique art style, the humor, and the whole storyline. Moth is the best protagonist ever, and her mother is amazing as well. Put this on your to-read list if you haven't read it already. A sequel, The Okay Witch and the Hidden Shadow, is coming out on July 6, so I'm really excited!
