Curse of the Chosen Volume two: The Will That Shapes the World by Alexis Deacon

by Leave a Comment

  WHAT THE FLAMING TORCHES DID I JUST READ? I could probably fill an entire review with comments like the one above for Curse of the Chosen Volume two: The Will That Shapes the World. This graphic novel by Alexis Deacon is just that, graphic in imagery and subject. It is not for the faint of heart, to say the least. The theme is a bit on the clichéd side (the weak overcoming the strong, as they come into their own; plus, the battle between […]

The Witch Can’t Love

Sweet & Bitter Magic by Adrienne Tooley

by Leave a Comment

Tamsin is a powerful witch with a terrible condition: she can’t love. The ability was taken from her by the Coven as punishment after she drastically misused her powers in her youth.

Enemies to lovers paranormal romance, with a mouse!

Boss Witch by Ann Aguirre

by 1 Comment

While I wasn’t a big fan of Clementine in the last book, I trust Ann Aguirre, plus I have a thing for enemies-to-lovers romances. While I didn’t like this quite as much as the first, I still enjoyed it and thought it was a thoughtfully done and funny romance. The first half of the book overlaps with Witch, Please, this time with the events from Clem and Gavin’s points of view. I was so-so on Clem in the last book as I felt like she […]

Revenge is a dish served up by witches

Payback's a Witch by Lana Harper

by 2 Comments

“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina meets The L Word in this fresh, sizzling rom-com by Lana Harper.” This book is a blend of a lot of different elements – it’s paranormal, mixed with payback on a cheating ex boyfriend, a dash of Harry Potteresque wizard tournament and sizzle of a new lesbian romance.  The main character, Emmy Harlow, is a witch but because she left her home town after high school, her powers are diminished.  You see, her home town of Thistle Grove is a place […]

“Never mix vodka and witchcraft.”

The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling

by 1 Comment

When I started reading this book it wasn’t very far in before I was thinking to myself “hmm… I’m not sure he’s such a bad guy, ladies” as Vivienne is (accidentally) drunkenly hexing her ex, Rhys. This could be a function of any number of things including my age, my own romantic history, the fact that I waited three months on my library’s hold list to get a copy, or the general state of the world. But it did affect my enjoyment because the thing […]
