This one has it all—magic, a non-binary love story, and an unconventional mystery. When Maeve accidentally wishes her best friend out of existence using a pack of magic Tarot cards, she must team up with her friend's sibling to find her. But that's not the only mystery. Why are these cards magic in the first place? And why can Maeve suddenly see into people's minds? This is the coziest, weirdest mystery I have ever read, and I wish I could climb inside it with a blanket and a cup of tea.

When 10-year old Kenny Watson road trips with his siblings from Flint, Michigan to Birmingham, Alabama, they leave their city lives behind and adapt to life with Grandma, outhouses and swimming holes. This book is laugh-out-loud funny up until the end, when the children must reckon with the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing of 1963. Perfect family read.
