🦇 Enchanted to Meet You Book Review 🦇
❝ I didn't care. I didn't care because I was the Chosen One. Chosen by him. ❞
❓ #QOTD What type of witch are you (cottage/kitchen, storm, hedge, green, cosmic, crystal, sea)? ❓ 🦇 Small-town witch Jessica Gold teams up with a handsome, mysterious stranger to protect her quaint village. As the Chosen One, Jess must find the Bringer of Light, and together, they'll save the town from a demonic rift. While on this magical adventure, tall, grumpy, and handsome witch Derrick harbors a secret from Jessica, despite the instant spark between them—a dangerous distraction from their dire mission. Can Jessica, Derrick, and the Bringer of Light work their magic in time, or is the little town of West Harbor doomed?
[ Read on for my review. Also posted on: Insta | Literal | StoryGraph | Goodreads ]
💜 This spooky season read is bound to enchant and delight many readers. If you're looking for an easy, troped-up "Chosen One" plot just in time to drag out your Halloween decorations, this is it! Meg Cabot creates a cozy, small-town witchy romance that has all the potential of fueling your Buffy the Vampire Slayer or OG Charmed nostalgia...except it doesn't.
🦇 I'm surprised this was categorized as Adult Fiction / Women's Fiction, because Jessica came off as juvenile in the present and her high school flashbacks. Unfortunately, many of the other adult characters didn't come off as mature either. Rosalie still comes off as an elitist snob, and when she doesn't get her way, she breaks down in a childish tantrum. Jessica's ex (now Rosalie's husband) Billy has a bland yet innocent childlike nature as well. The weird, heteronormative jealousy that occurs seems awkward and misplaced. Honestly, the token queer teens, Ester and Gabrielle, come off as more mature than most of the adults. While I love a confident, curvy MC, labeling her as such doesn't make her an instantly loveable character. Unfortunately, the entire cast is very two-dimensional. Our so-called villains crumble at the first sign of...I wouldn't even call it conflict, because the would-be "showdown" scene was resolved with a speech. Cute, and maybe progressive, but a complete let-down for a resolution. The story begins with a dual timeline that suddenly dissolves, secrets are revealed too quickly, and every source of tension or conflict was too short-lived to matter. There's barely any use of magic; it's far too subtle. The characters and plot all lack the magic that truly would have made this story enchanting.
🦇 Recommended for fans of the Princess Diaries series (the maturity level of both MCs feels similar), Sabrina the Teenage Witch, or some quick, cute spooky season vibes.

Stephen: I’ll give him some space to seethe privately. Maybe half an hour or so.
*six minutes pass*
Stephen: I think he's had more than enough time alone.

Well, My Immortal is an infamous Harry Potter fan fiction from some point in the 2000s (It was taken down from fanfiction.net so I don’t know the exact date, but the re-upload dates 2008.)
It follows the exploits of a teenage Hogwarts student named Ebony Darkness Dimentia Raven Way. She’s a vampire who’s whole hog into the goth fashion craze (and we know because the author describes her clothing every other chapter...)
She’s in relationship with Draco Malfoy (who in this universe looks like the lead singer of My Chemical Romance,) for whom she’s in a deeply sexual relationship with. Just to warn you, the next lines, are very graphic!
He took of my top and I took of his clothes. I even took of my bra. Then he put his thingie into my you-know-what and we did it for the first time.
However, she gets pulled into a love triangle with Harry Potter (who looks like the lead singer of Good Charlotte in this universe,) who has changed his name to Vampire and moved to Slytherin after he became a vampire. Eventually, Enoby finds out that that Vampire and Draco were former gay lovers which turns into a whole arc where she’s angry at Draco...
God this fanfiction is difficult to summarize...
Snape and Lupin are pedophiles now, and lust after Ebony. There’s this whole scene where they catch her in the shower.
Then I looked out the window and screamed… Snap was spying on me and he was taking a video tape of me! And Loopin was masticating to it! They were sitting on their broomsticks. “EW, YOU FUCKING PERVS, STOP LOOKING AT ME NAKED! ARE YOU PEDOS OR WHAT!” I screamed putting on a black towel with a picture of Marilyn Mason on it. Suddenly Vampire ran in.
...and... like, they don’t get arrested for anything, and eventually Snape and Lupin wind up in a sexual relationship together (they let Dobby watch) in which Ebony takes blackmail photos...
Oh, and like, 30 chapters in, she gets involved in a time travel storyline...
Suddenly someone jumped in fornt of me. It wuz…..Morty Mcfli!1 He was wering a blak bnad tshrit and blak bagy jeans. “What da hell r u dong here!11” I asked. “I wil help u go frowad in tim Enoby.” he said siriusly Den……….he took out a blak tim machine. I went in2 it and……………………..sudenly I wuz forward in tim!111
...you know what? I’m not going to spoil the whole thing. It’s worth going on the journey, it’ll be rough, but it’s all worth it to eventually read the amazing chapter where a troll breaks into the authors fanfiction.net account and made their own addition to the story. IT IS FUCKING AMAZING!
(Make sure to read it from here as some sources leave the troll chapter out.)
