The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling


We've moved! Please read along here

This book has been on my book shelf for like 2 months and I'm so excited to have finally cracked it open! This book lands us in a charming mountain town in Georgia that is giving off Halloweentown/Gilmore Girls/Good Witch/Hogwarts vibes. In Graves Glen we have witches, a college, ghosts, a talking cat who's very much interested in treats, magic, and of course, an ex boyfriend from 9 years ago who turns up unexpectedly! Vivi is a witch but spends most of her time pretending that she's not one. She's a college professor who's very close with her aunt and cousin who are her only close family members. Cousin Gwyn plays a pretty big part in this story, auntie is more of a side character. Rhys, the ex, has returned from Wales to charge the ley lines in a cave in the mountains for the magic town but he starts to have a strange string of bad luck and of course, that brings us to our main plot. There's a mystery to solve, intense fall and Halloween vibes, GHOSTS (I had to all caps that because there are so few ghosts in witchy books), lots of descriptions of tea and one Wales accent, some family drama, lots to keep you interested. All in all, this book feels fun, lighthearted, the characters are well written and it has some good humor. This is the perfect book to read with a fall scented candle and a glass of read wine. Especially if you could use some cheering up. Highly recommend!
