This a cute read and one that combined sisterhood, maigic and curses. It also dealt with so many topics that middle grade students takcle like friendship and family drama. It also had curse element that was at the hear of the read. Being in the main character head was also hard cause she was dealing with alot. I also loved the theater connection as well!! I would def read more by this author in the future.

An especially good choice for those who enjoy atmospheric reads and sensory details, this is full of descriptives, including the scents and ingredients involved in this family’s use of aromagic charms, definitely the sort of book that paints a picture in your mind.

Friends, family, community, the secondary characters had well thought out and distinct personalities, the mom is more complicated than she initially seems to Marigold and the middle sister, Lou, stood out with her own sort of mini-arc. As for Marigold, she’s a great heroine, she cares deeply about family, she’s imperfect and eager to make things right after mistakes, and for those readers who are the youngest member of their families I think they’ll enjoy that the baby of the family is the one who steps up here.

I really liked how even though there’s fantastical elements like a curse and magic throughout this story, the stuff that fills Marigold with anxiety is all very real world, very much relatable to young readers, Marigold’s parents are not entirely reliable and going through a divorce that Marigold in part blames herself for, her sisters are feuding when they used to be close, she’s worried that her oldest sibling will leave home soon and Marigold’s putting too much stock in popularity. While magic does play a role in the resolutions to Marigold’s problems, so does communicating better with her family and learning lessons about how to treat friends, not cheating to get ahead, etc., so for a magic infused story, it’s admirably grounded.
