My younger daughter and I just finished watching season 2 of Wednesday on Netflix. If you’re searching for Wednesday Addams vibes in book form, I have a couple series that might scratch that itch for you. Federal Bureau of Magic is a 14-book series about a self-loathing fury in a family of evildoers (dark magic witches on her mother’s side and venegeance demons on her father’s side). The first book is Great Balls of Fury and it’s loaded with humor, action, magic, found family and actual family, and a blossoming romance with the local chief of police. My other suggestion is my Starry Hollow Witches series. This 19-book series is Wednesday meets Gilmore Girls. It’s tons of fun with characters that you’ll come to think of as family, including a raccoon familiar with a penchant for snappy comebacks and trouble. Start with Magic & Murder. These books will have you laughing straight into spooky season. You’re welcome.
