Status Updates From The Unfortunate Side Effect...

Wow. That ending was… well. It was something. Felt like it was trying to be the ending of practical magic but it didn’t hit the same.

Orange Infused Honey pg 309

Awh look at that her and Jake finally kiss and make up. Seems a little late to let him in on the magic secret though lol

Hyacinth Bean Soup pg 297

SEE I FUCKING TOLD YOU IT WAS HER MAGIC THAT NEEDED TO BE GIVEN UP.

Chocolate Pecan Pie pg 290

So that didn’t work and it turns out Sadie is the ghost in the garden? Or she is at least summoning it and the one destroying it from her anger and fear?

Basically because she’s too afraid to let anyone in because she’s too afraid to lose her magic, she is actually becoming destruction. She did not have to be that rude to her mom though

Orange Honey Vanilla Scones pg 278-279

Okay so Bethany is not pregnant. Sneaky gal with the scones.

And mom/Florence has an idea how to settle the lofe debt? It better be to give up her magic or nothing makes sense to me

Athena’s Tea pg 265

You’re telling me she just gave up? When the answer is right there. Give up your magic not your life you buffoon.

And Jake just casually says “you’re the love of my life” the fuck?

And now she’s just laddy-da about inviting Bethany over to get to know her and be apart of their lives?

Marjoram and White Pepper Mac and Cheese pgs 244-245

I was right Seth and Raquel are together. What a cute dinner.

What the fuck is the scary ghost thing?

Kerp going back to Jake. What about Bethany??

Dream Catcher Hot Chocolate pg 227

So her brother is the one in danger? Also can we admit thay he’s dating his sisters best friend already?

Maple Butterscotch Walnut Fudge pg 212

So. Gigi left instructions for her that say she can nullify the curse and save her brother.

I think it means if she embraces her own curse and gives up her magic she will be like reborn so it would fufill the life debt. Like her magically body would die.

And youre telling me her mom is here already?

Harvest Soap Recipe pg 195

Okay so Gigi has passed on. Their mom is to return now. And they have 30 days to figure out how to
Bring balance? And jake’s bride to be/mother of his child is in town too? Jeeze. So many plot points.
