Courtesy of an Amazon Daily Deal, I came across this piece of brain candy Witches on Parole by Deborah Geary. When I say brain candy, I mean this book has the nutritional value of a gummy bear, but hey some days they hit the spot.

The story is about a group of witches living in Berkeley, California. Two young witches are serving "parole" under the supervision of a senior witch. While they think they are supposed to spend the time serving the community, really the witch community is conspiring to help them love and understand themselves.

Its a sweet story, and I could see a bit of myself in each of the main characters - the uptight one needing to learn to embrace sensory experience, the punky awkward one needing to define what she wants not just what she doesn't want, and the experienced one struggling when being a mentor reminds her of how to felt to lose her way.

Long Story Short - Chick Lit Cubed - witches and yoga and knitting and baking and female self improvement. One dose of treacle, just follow it with a swig of listerine.
