Why read it?

2 authors picked The Ex Hex as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Ok, sometimes I just need a little brain candy, and this fits the bill. I’m a historian, and I read a lot of history books that deal with dark subjects. To relax, I like to read rom-coms with a bit of spice.

This feels like watching Practical Magic with a bit of Brigit Jones thrown in. It’s funny, set in a spooky village during fall, and there are witches. Oh, and the main character is a witch and a historian. Win-win in my book. 

From Elizabeth's list on history for spooky book lovers.

This book was so much fun! I can’t remember a time I used “fun” to describe a second chance romance but Erin Sterling delivers. Vivi is left broken-hearted after Rhys leaves town only to return nine years later to wreak havoc on Vivi’s life once again. Did I mention she’s a witch? Or the minor curse she cast on Rhys when he left? As you can imagine, hijinks ensue when these two crash together again. One of my favorite parts of written chemistry is banter and wow the banter in this book is on point. When you aren’t busy rooting…

From Maggi's list on love the second time around.
