Improbable Magic for Cynical Witches

I liked the realistic witchcraft.

READER NOTE: This book does not have magic. These are witches in the real-life pagan sense.

I seriously considered DNF'ing this in the middle.

I think this book didn't work for me because it's told in two timelines, and there's such a tonal difference between those timelines that it doesn't feel like they belong in the same story. The Chloe story interested me more, because you can really feel the attraction and why Eleanor made the decisions she did and how things spiraled like they did. It's all very dark and angsty. The timeline with Pix felt so bland in comparison. Pix had very little personality and the two of them had no chemistry. Despite Eleanor talking about being sad/anxious/etc. her scenes felt very la-dee-da with Pix and the coven, not like the same girl dealing with the trauma that happened with Chloe. It didn't feel like Eleanor actually dealt with the trauma of her relationship with Chloe. I mean, at least have her give up weed and start going to therapy.
