Spells, Strings, and Forgotten Things: Random House Publishing Group

Autor Breanne Randall
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 mar 2025

Imaginați-vă tensiunea amneziei magice din Bewitched (Standard Edition), mutată într-un decor de orășel american idilic, unde secretele de familie sunt la fel de dense ca ceața dimineții. În Spells, Strings, and Forgotten Things, Breanne Randall ne propune o viziune fascinantă asupra magiei: un sistem de schimb în care fiecare act supranatural erodează identitatea celui care îl practică. Subliniem modul în care autoarea transformă memoria dintr-un simplu element narativ într-o monedă de schimb periculoasă, creând un sentiment de urgență constantă.

Reținem evoluția lui Calliope Petridi, o protagonistă care, spre deosebire de personajele din In Charm's Way, nu doar că își pierde amintirile, ci își dorește activ să uite traumele trecutului. Această nuanță psihologică adaugă profunzime unei structuri de tip „enemies-to-lovers”, în care atracția dintre Calliope și liderul covenului rival devine un câmp de luptă între datorie și dorință. Față de debutul său, The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic, Randall păstrează atmosfera de „small-town magic”, dar ridică mizele prin introducerea unui rău ancestral care forțează cele trei surori să își reevalueze loialitatea.

Stilul narativ este unul senzorial, integrând elemente de „romantasy” modern cu o explorare sinceră a legăturilor de sânge. Construcția lumii din Gold Springs este echilibrată; nu este doar un decor, ci un personaj colectiv care reacționează la fragilitatea magiei ce începe să se stingă. Este un roman despre sacrificiu și despre frica de a deveni un străin în propria viață, păstrând în același timp un ritm alert și o tensiune romantică bine dozată.

From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic


In the small town of Gold Springs, Calliope Petridi and her two sisters carefully guard the secret of their magic and the price they must pay to practise it: memories. Luckily, all Calliope wants to do is forget: the mother who left without a trace, the sisters from whom she feels increasingly distant, and most of all, the way the love of her life shattered her heart two years ago.

But when an ancient evil awakens, the fragile thread that holds the sisters together breaks. As their magic slowly begins to fade, Calliope accidentally binds herself to the handsome leader of a rival coven infamous for their ruthless pursuit of power. Battling the sizzling chemistry with a man she can't trust, Calliope must confront painful memories of her past, dark family secrets, and ancient magic in order to protect the town and all she loves.

But will she have anything left of herself?
