Lily is a librarian at a magical school hidden in Atlanta. She is a wizard and like tea and baking, she feels a bit stodgy and takes her duties protecting the books seriously. Sebastian is the nephew of her mentor and a witch. She doesn’t think much of him since they have different ways of doing magic and she looks down on his skills. The POV changes in the book since it is more 3 interconnecting stories than one long story with the both of them. The book was fun and by the end Lily certainly thinks better of Sebastian's powers.
