The perfect summer-ween read. I loved the characters and setting so much I just might re-read it when fall rolls around!

Once Upon a Blue Moon is a cozy paranormal delight with the perfect mix of snark, suspense, and slow-burn romance. I really liked how the author balanced Hazel’s quirky magic mishaps with a deeper mystery unfolding beneath the surface—especially as she and grumpy neighbor Blake navigate their magical body-swap mess. The banter was sharp, the plot twists were solid, and I genuinely enjoyed how both characters grew through the chaos. This was a super fun read that gave me both laughs and a little swoon.

Witch, please—this book is spellbinding chaos in the best way! 🌕

Hazel’s a hot mess with a spellbook, and Blake’s a brooding werewolf with attitude—so yeah, of course I devoured Once Upon a Blue Moon like a bag of cursed gummy bears. This body-swap madness had me laughing out loud and rooting for their magical mess to turn into something swoony. If you love awkward romance, magical oopsies, and grumpy-sunshine energy with claws, this book totally brings it. It’s like Halloween and Valentine’s Day had a baby. 🐺💜🧙‍♀️

Thank you to NetGalley, Avery Arujo, and BookBuzz for the eARC! I really enjoyed this book and am grateful for the opportunity to to read it.

I like how it’s quick to get right to the plot and includes great dual POV. It’s such an interesting concept for two very different but powerful magical creatures switching bodies, letting alone their genders!

The mystery surrounding what was happening was engaging and well thought out. Nicely paced and synced well with the romantic plot as well. Ravena was such a good evil character, with such long revenge that she was seeking to enact. So seeing Blake and Hazel doing all they could to work together, while falling for each other, made this an exciting and enjoyable story! I’m looking forward to reading future books in this series.

This was such a fun, cute and cozy read! I binged it cover to cover in under 24 hours and will definitely be continuing on in the series when book two is released!

The plot is packed with magical mishaps, a bit of mayhem and an enemies to romance storyline that was incredibly sweet. I really enjoyed seeing Hazel (FMC) and Blake (MMC) start as unlikely alias working together and end as something much more.

I think this would be a really great addition to everyone's Fall TBR and look forward to reading more from this author in the future!

Thank you Avery Arujo, Net Galley and AA Lit for providing me with an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own.

Witch, Please! Sparks Fly in This Spellbinding Body Swap

Once Upon a Blue Moon is a sassy, magical romp with potion blunders, snarky banter, and a witch-werewolf duo so full of chemistry I was rooting for their happily-ever-after even before the full moon rose!
