Summary
Rainy March is a proud third-generation book witch, sworn to defend works of fiction from all foes real and imaginary. With her magical umbrella and feline familiar, she jumps into and out of novels to fix malicious alterations and wrangle characters that go off-script.
Book witches live by a strict code: Real people belong in the real word; fictional characters belong in works of fiction…. Do not eat, drink, or sleep inside a fictional world, lest you become part of the story.

Critics Review
Meg Shaffer continues to surprise and delight me with each book she writes. The Book Witch mixes romance and mystery and a deep appreciation of the power of stories to create the perfect love letter to readers (and writers) everywhere. This was such a fun read that had me laughing in one scene and tearing up in the next. It’s the perfect book for anyone who has ever fallen in love with a fictional character (me!) or who has dreamed of walking through their favorite story. I loved it! * Laurie Gilmore, author of THE PUMPKIN SPICE CAFE *
The Book Witch feels like falling through an incredibly fun and twisty rabbit hole while wrapped in a warm blanket and sipping your favorite cup of tea. Meg Shaffer brought my childhood dreams to life in a gem of a book that is inventive, cozy, and important all at the same time * Samantha Sotto Yambao, author of WATER MOON *
Warning: reading this book may cause hours to vanish, your imagination to run wild, and the impossible desire to leap into the pages of your favorite stories. A clever and heart-felt adventure, this novel captures the giddy, perilous magic of losing yourself in a good story, just like Rainy herself does. A luminous, wildly imaginative delight that every book-lover will cherish * Hayley Gelfuso, author of THE BOOK OF LOST HOURS *
