This week on Bookmergency, we’re diving into Love Spells Trouble by Nia Davenport—a witchy YA fantasy set in Houston that blends family, romance, and magic rooted in Black Southern identity.
We unpack coven politics, gentrification, community power, and what it means to claim your legacy. Think: magical heir meets covenless witch, sneaker culture meets spellwork, and a love story that’s also a fight for belonging.
If you love modern witch stories, Black girl magic, and Southern-set YA with real-world heart, read Love Spells Trouble then come hang out with us in this episode.
Don't forget to preorder Our Vicious Oaths, Nia Davenport's adult romantasy coming out October 28! Follow us on Instagram @Bookmergency and tell us what Connection you would like to have as a witch!
