Sorcery And Cecelia Or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot

Set in 1817, this book reads something like a Regency romance and part like Harry Potter. The novel is epistolary, which means the two main characters Kate and Cecelia write letters back and forth to each other. Kate is having "her season" in London, while her friend is spending the season in the country, away from the social aspect of society. Both are involved with magic and odd things are happening to them. Cecelia is being followed by a stranger, and someone is trying to poison Kate. Then when an acquaintance becomes popular, attractive to all who see her, then the pair decide to look into things. Why It Made the List The book has wonderful plotting and a great way with words. The authors evoke Jane Austen and JK Rowling at once and the result is a whole lot of fun. 'Read It If You Like' Regency, fantasy, novels written as letters
