When We Were Magic

"Profoundly thoughtful...An intimate portrait of female friendship laced with literal and metaphorical magic." -- Kirkus Reviews**

** "A laugh-out-loud, exciting ride...a darkly comedic coming-of-age story." --* School Library Journal***

A moving, darkly funny novel about six teens whose magic goes wildly awry from Magic for Liars * author Sarah Gailey, who Chuck Wendig calls an "author to watch."*

• Keeping your magic a secret is hard. Being in love with your best friend is harder.*Alexis has always been able to rely on two things: her best friends, and the magic powers they all share. Their secret is what brought them together, and their love for each other is unshakeable--even when that love is complicated. Complicated by problems like jealousy, or insecurity, or lust. Or love.

That unshakeable, complicated love is one of the only things that* doesn't * change on prom night.

When accidental magic goes sideways and a boy winds up dead, Alexis and her friends come together to try to right a terrible wrong. Their first attempt fails--and their second attempt fails even harder. Left with the remains of their failed spells and more consequences than anyone could have predicted, each of them must find a way to live with their part of the story.
