About this Event
Sunday, August 14th at 5:00PM
Iris Gray knows witches aren't welcome in most towns. When she was forced to leave her last home after an illegal display of magic, her father stayed behind because he was unable to start over... leaving Iris alone.
And while the Witches' Council was lenient in their punishment, Iris knows they're keeping tabs on her.
Now settled in Washington, Iris vents her frustrations by writing curses she never intends to cast, and spends her days at the wildlife refuge with a witch-hating intern, Pike Adler.
Unbeknownst to Iris, everything will come to a head in Rachel Griffin's story of accidental alchemy and adventure. We invite you to unlock a magical version of the Pacific Northwest in WILD IS THE WITCH during this special live launch at Books of Wonder.
Rachel will be in conversation with fellow YA fantasy writer Melissa Albert, author of OUR CROOKED HEARTS.
