Bookroo's summary

Clara, a rare Everwitch, holds the power of all seasons, crucial for stabilizing a chaotic climate. As her magic intensifies, it endangers those she loves, including Sang, her training partner. With the world on the brink of disaster, Clara faces an impossible choice: embrace her volatile power, risking her heart, or abandon it, risking the planet. Can she find a way to save both her love and the earth, or will her decision lead to ultimate chaos? As the seasons change, so do the stakes, forcing Clara to confront her deepest fears and desires.

From the publisher

An Instant New York Times BestsellerIn a world where witches control the climate and are losing control as the weather grows more erratic, a once-in-a-generation witch with the magic of all seasons is the only one who can save earth from destruction. But as her power grows, it targets and kills those closest to her, and when she falls in love with her training partner, she’s forced to choose between her power, her love, and saving the earth.For centuries, witches have maintained the climate, but now their control is faltering as the atmosphere becomes more erratic; the storms, more destructive. All hope lies with Clara, a once-in-a-generation Everwitch whose magic is tied to every season.In Autumn, Clara wants nothing to do with her power. It’s wild and volatile, and the price of her magic–losing the ones she loves–is too high, despite the need to control the increasingly dangerous weather.In Winter, the world is on the precipice of disaster. Fires burn, storms rage, and Clara accepts that she’s the only one who can make a difference.In Spring, she falls for Sang, the witch training her. As her magic grows, so do her feelings, until she’s terrified Sang will be the next one she loses.In Summer, Clara must choose between her power and her happiness, her duty and the people she loves…before she loses Sang, her magic, and thrusts the world into chaos.”Perfect for fans of Shea Ernshaw and Taylor Swift’s Folklore.”–Rosiee Thor, author of Tarnished Are the Stars”A bright, fresh read from a glowing new voice, THE NATURE OF WITCHES is both timely and stirring. Griffin’s emotional writing that cuts to the heart will make her a new YA favorite.”–Adrienne Young, New York Times bestselling author of Fable”The forces of nature and magic blend perfectly in this masterfully told story… I couldn’t love this book more.”–Shea Ernshaw, NYT bestselling author of The Wicked Deep and Winterwood
