For all the millennial gals who didn’t quite get their witch fix from watching Practical Magic when October hit, this is a great book option that will scratch the itch! Where there was some spice in here, there was a ton of factual talk about and different types of witches and talk of covenant, etc. I found myself a tad confused and bored at certain times tbh. All that said it was a cute festive read for October and picked up as the story progressed. This is our October read for our #LITeralhotties book club so I’m hyped to hear the girlies’ thoughts
I'm rounding up from 3.5. The book was fun and had a very Hocus Pocus / Practical Magic vibe to it. But it wrapped up way too quickly at the end.

This was a cute, cozy magical romance. Think Practical Magic meets Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I enjoyed the characters and the humor. A fun read for spooky season. Thank you to NetGalley and Forever for this arc.
This book was so darn cute! A kooky coven of magicless witches in small town Texas accidentally break the family curse that locks up their magic with the help of their youngest coven member. The grumpy new warlock next door has to find a way to re-hex them before the powers that be, ruin his family. I am hoping the series continues, such fun side characters and southern charm
Enjoyable hallmark kinda story. Even made me cry at one point.
Big thanks to Hachette Audio and Forever for providing this ALC via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.
Looking for the perfect cozy, witchy rom-com to curl up with this fall? "Hot Hex Boyfriend" has got you covered! This delightful story follows Delia Merriweather, a skeptic when it comes to magic despite her family's witchy claims. But when she accidentally breaks a generations-old hex, chaos ensues, and enters Max Halifax—the brooding (and oh-so-handsome) new neighbor who's not too thrilled about the sudden magical mayhem next door. Sparks fly, magic misfires, and trust me, you'll be hooked from page one.
I absolutely loved the charming small-town Texas setting Carly Bloom created. Places like the Mourning Glory Cafe and the Ice House felt so real and inviting, I found myself wishing I could pop in for a coffee or a dance! The side characters are just as enchanting, each bringing their own quirks and southern flair that add so much warmth and humor to the story. And let's talk about the magic system—surprisingly detailed and intriguing for a lighthearted read, it adds the perfect sprinkle of enchantment to Delia and Max's journey.
If audiobooks are your jam, you're in for a treat. The dual narration along with the fun accents bring the story to life in the best way possible. Narrators Laura Knight Keating and Zion Jang do an amazing job of giving each character a unique voice. With a dash of enemies-to-lovers vibes, personal growth, and plenty of magical mishaps, "Hot Hex Boyfriend" is a feel-good read that will leave you smiling and believing in a little bit of magic. Grab a pumpkin spice latte, get comfy, and enjoy this enchanting ride!
