Bad Witches

By: H. B. Akumiah

Narrated by: Imani Jade Powers

In H. B. Akumiah’s lively and charming debut, three young women discover the unbelievable: they’re witches, and their new-found magic may be the key to saving the world …

The Witch Sphere is in turmoil. In the years since a stunning betrayal sent shockwaves through society, the Sphere was hit with another crisis: witches are giving birth to more typics (non-witches) and their numbers are diminishing. Nadia is determined to help but finds hers efforts at the Witch Health Organization entangled with the political machinations of her powerful mother.

A public relations assistant, a teacher, and a former child star walk into a bar bathroom … On what happens to be all of their twenty-second birthday and, like many twentysomethings, become fast tipsy friends. Unlike most twentysomethings, their night of partying ends with an accidental act of magic. But they can’t really be witches, can they? Suddenly, Maya, Gabbie, and Delali find themselves thrust into a whole new word of spells and potions with only a mysterious mentor as a guide.

As the girls learn to harness their new power, Nadia starts to notice spikes in the magic baseline and suspects an unknown cadre of witches may be the key to solving the Typic Crisis. Can this unlikely coven come together and save the Sphere or are there darker forces at play? Either way these Bad Witches are going to have some fun.

(Written by Black woman using her boyfriend’s audible account lol) First off, yassss Black witches!! 🪄🔮 I loved the representation and the characters in general! I honestly don’t know who I like more. Second, the world building, of the Sphere in particular, was beautiful. It made me want to live there. Third, the storytelling was great; the TWISTS, spectacular!!! Lastly, the narrator of this audiobook is honestly one of the best I’ve heard; STELLAR!
Head nod to Ms. Akumiah! I cannot wait until book 2 (if there is one)! Pleaseeee make one! And this was her first book?! Definitely impressive.
