Praise for The Spells We Cast

“The most magical and swoony page-turner I've read in ages.”
Adam Silvera, #1 New York Times best-selling author of They Both Die at the End

“Sparks fly and rivals clash in Jason June’s spellbinding new YA. Witty, charming, and utterly delightful, The Spells We Cast is a magical queer romance that will have your heart racing. Don’t miss it!”  —C. S. Pacat, New York Times best-selling author of Dark Rise

The Spells We Cast is the kind of dazzling, hilarious, and heart-stopping tale only the incredible Jason June could weave. Its exuberant magic cast a spell on me!” —Melissa de la Cruz, #1 New York Times best-selling author of the Blue Bloods series

The Spells We Cast is wildly entertaining! With a lively star-crossed romance and an imaginative world full of magic, monsters, and mayhem, Jason June has written a novel that is fantastically fun.” —F. T. Lukens, New York Times best-selling author of So This Is Ever After

“A thrilling, creative adventure, where enemies and lovers collide. With a magical spin on our modern world, this story showcases the power of our most undeniable human connections.

Kirkus Reviews

2024-08-03
Soul mates Nigel and Orion possess knowledge that could upend the magical world, but some magicians will stop at nothing to prevent that information from getting out.

Picking up whereThe Spells We Cast (2023) left off, Nigel and Ori, who are white, are on the run from the Guild and under the protection of the Resistance. After being brought back from the dead, Nigel isn’t the same: There’s an evil voice in his head that grows stronger with anger. And while the boys and their friend Bex, who’s Japanese American, know that magical imbalance is a lie and that the Guild is unnecessarily stripping teen magicians of their powers, a spell prevents other members of the Resistance from remembering this fact. Thankfully, Nigel has a secret informant who’s still in the Guild. South Asian American Jaleesa wants to learn more about Nigel’s and Ori’s powers, which are amplified through their soul mate connection; she might be able to do the same with her girlfriend, white-cued Laurel (although Laurel wants to take down Nigel and Ori). Unlike the first book, which focused on Nigel, this ensemble piece shifts focus among several characters. While this structure slows the pace, particularly in the beginning, it ultimately makes the themes richer as the story delves into relationships, parental expectations, empathy, and animosity from various viewpoints. Filled with riveting magic, this dazzling, queer-affirming world will sweep fans up.

Love conquers all in this satisfying duology closer.(Fantasy. 13-18)
