Praise

“Fowley-Doyle is herself a literary spell caster, conjuring up a suspenseful and sensual ambiance . . . This smart and sexy page-turner that readers will want to devour and share with their friends is a real find.”—School Library Journal, starred review

“Fowley-Doyle’s lush, atmospheric storytelling contrasts brilliantly with her characters’ teenage normalcy—drinking, skiving, and cursing while mostly loving their parents and sticking up for each other. Readers will need patience to untangle the plot’s silver threads, but those who savored Fowley-Doyle’s previous The Accident Season will relish this as well.”—Kirkus

“Complex, ambitious, magical.”—Daily Mail

Spellbook is reminiscent of a medieval tapestry in its color, complexity, and stylistic texture. . . . This book is sure to please teens who enjoyed Fowley-Doyle’s debut novel, The Accident Season.”—VOYA

“This book is filled with mystery and the storytelling is as enchanting as the spell it contains. Readers will get lost in this tale.”—School Library Connection


PRAISE FOR THE ACCIDENT SEASON:

 •  Kirkus Best Book of the Year
 •  SLJ Best Book of the Year
 •  YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults
 •  Indie Next Pick
 •  Carnegie Medal Nominee
 •  Waterstone’s Children’s Book Award finalist

“Fowley-Doyle’s stunning debut novel weaves the temporal and the spiritual into a seamless reality, rich in emotional impact. Devastating loss and abuse are balanced by romance, teen hijinks, and spine-tingling discoveries. . . . This thought-provoking narrative will cast its spell over older teens and adults alike.”—School Library Journal, starred review

“Ghosts, secrets, and magic collide in this Irish author’s astonishing debut. . . . a moving portrait of a fractured family, knitting itself back together with courage and love. A powerful novel from an exciting new talent.”—Kirkus, starred review

“Beautifully crafted and atmospheric, the magic realism of this book gradually peels away to expose secrets and reveal unexpected truths. Readers will be swept away by Fowley-Doyle’s lyrical writing and entrancing premise in this tale of forbidden love and magic.”—Booklist

“Sensuous, eerie​, lyrical . . . Fowley-Doyle’s The Accident Season reads like a poem. The mystery is intriguing, the writing is gorgeous, and the characters are vivid. A lovely debut.”—April Tulcholke, author of Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

The Accident Season is amazing.”—Holly Black

“Atmospheric and magical.”—VOYA

“A lyrical and sometimes chilling exploration of the ways in which we manipulate memories to fall in line with our present narrative—the lies we tell ourselves to keep our brains safe and happy. Cara’s narration brilliantly, sometimes brutally conveys the unraveling of both Cara and her family . . . and the bittersweet ending will haunt readers as much it does Cara.”—BCCB
