Pumpkin Carving for Superstitious Witches

By: Laura Greenwood

A great short story for Halloween!

This is a great short story for the spooky months! Juniper has to guard her door every Halloween with a carved Pumpkin. So this year, she made her jack-o-lantern and she was ready. But then building services came and took it stating it was a fire hazard. Now it’s Halloween and she doesn’t have her jack-o-lantern to guard her door… and she can’t find a pumpkin anywhere. Then Emmett appears and he tries to help her. But can they get it carved in time and will it work?

This was such a cute spooky season short story. I read this after seeing another bookstagrammer post about it and I couldn’t resist. While it is a short story, it’s easy to fall in love with Juniper and Emmett. I would love to read more about them and their world! The author made me very curious as to why Juniper needed the pumpkins and taught me something! Emmett and Juniper were so sweet with each other, I loved the hesitation between them. It felt very realistic.

I will say, I don’t normally read books of this genre, so to read that a store sells blood for vampires was quite different for me!

I highly recommend this short read for the Halloween season!
