The diverse cast of characters was incredible. Yeah, the main character is a basic blond, but he has a heart of gold, lived as a homeless kid for a while, and goes to an afterlife where he is the minority because of his heritage.

What can I say? It's witchy, it's fluffy, it's got a murder mystery. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book, because of the amount of the secondhand embarrassment in it, but the characters were likeable, and it's outside of the typical young heroine tropes we see.
The main character is also a single mother, and she has my heart. You that feeling you get when you walk into a room and forget why you went in there. That is this MC in a nutshell. She is that feeling, and watching her navigate the changes to her life was really nice.
