What is it about witchy rom-coms all having colonizer under (over?) tones. Jeeeesus.

well… I have tried to read this book multiple times and never felt connected to it. I finally finished the audio version and enjoyed it much more. This was a cute + fun spooky themed rom-com full of witches, spells, and a curse. It was quite fast paced, especially as an audio. Unfortunately, for me I just found it to be really cringy. I skipped a bunch of parts and had a hard time finishing it. This definitely felt more YA. I didn’t really feel the connection between MCs nor did I care for it. I was just bored

Dnf’d 25%. Couldn’t get into this. The magic system wasn’t explained. Maybe it would have been explained later.

The story was enjoyable and lighthearted, but it lacked any true depth. I thought the setting of the book was interesting, but the magical elements were lacking. For a book about witches that live in a witch-college town, they surprisingly knew very little about magic. It was the least compelling aspect of this book.
Most of the characters were charming, but I disliked the sister, Gwyn. She did not experience any character growth and did not contribute anything meaningful to the story. In addition, I did not like how her romance subplot was resolved.
Finally, the resolution was a bit abrupt. The author raised the stakes very high in the last few chapters, but then resolved the issues quickly. I would have liked to have seen more of the characters grappling emotionally with the consequences of the hex.
