Coven of the East is a Herorine's Journey through the Major Arcana, celebrating feminine power.
Let's celebrate each card, archetype, and contributor: Benebell Wen is renowned for her work on East Asian mysticism. Her essay "Reclaiming the Witches Path," represents our potential.

"Authors of the stories in [Coven of the East] explore their ancestors's practices and their cultural background through fiction and non-fiction, showing how rich and diverse #witchcraft is when we move our sight from Europe and the US to other parts of the world." Goodreads Review #booksky #magic

"Coven of the East is a reclamation, an incantation and a dare. It asks you to believe in what has been hidden and to honor the women who carried those truths despite systems that tried to bury them. More than anything, it insists that silence is over." -BookTrib Review

Before Bridgerton on Netflix there was Courtney Milan!!! Love these romance book.
Jeremy Wentworth has been in love with Chloe Fong for as long as he can remember. Maybe it’s time he mentioned that he’s actually a duke?
The heroine is clipboard-dependent.
The hero has no idea what he's doing.
