The ink witch / Steph Cherrywell.
"A trans girl discovers that her boring mother comes from a powerful and dangerous family of witches"-- Provided by publisher.
Becca Slugg is bored. It's the tail-end of summer and it feels like she's done nothing but run errands for her family's Cape Disappointment Beach Inn, argue with her frustratingly overprotective mother, and have one-sided conversations with the giant spider living by the dumpsters out back. But Becca's wish for anything to happen backfires when her mom receives an unwelcome visit from her sinister and estranged sister Malatrice. While hiding, Becca overhears the two of them quarrel and discovers that she's the niece of one of the most powerful witches in the country - and the daughter of a powerless one. When her mom refuses to help Malatrice take control of the family throne, Becca is left with a mindless puppet for a mother and a whole lot of questions - like, can I cast spells with the ink in my veins, too? With the help of Natalya, her mother's tarantula familiar, and Oddvar, a friendly troll living in the motel's ice machine, a distraught but determined Becca sets out to uncover her own magical abilities and find the ingredients of a potion that will cure her mother. Besides, how hard can it be to find mermaid eggs, troll teeth, and the most precious possession of a Witch Queen?
