Gina LaManna’s "Hate Hex" is a fun and light-hearted read that gives off Hallmark vibes with a hate-to-love story, but with a magic-repressing witch and billionaire vampire as the main characters. It is an engaging and super quick read that combines lovable characters, plenty of humour, and immersive world-building.
The characters in "Hate Hex" draw you in with their quirks and chemistry, making it easy to root for them. The humour is well-placed throughout the book, keeping the story light and entertaining. The world LaManna builds is vivid and pulls readers into a magical setting that feels both whimsical and real.
I liked how each chapter switches between the main characters' point of view. This gives a clear picture of their thoughts and feelings. I enjoyed reading their cute banter, but I felt irritated by him saying 'sweetheart' and 'darling' when they were barely friends (that could have waited until they were already a couple).
I felt that the political and antagonist plots needed more detail and development. Some parts of the story felt rushed, though they weren't anticlimactic. If this book is the start of a series, that's great, but if it's a standalone, it could have been more expanded.
Overall, "Hate Hex" remains a fun and enjoyable read, perfect for fans of romantic comedies looking for a bit of escapism into a world of magic and romance.
If you're a fan of rom-coms and looking for a quick, entertaining book, "Hate Hex" is definitely worth picking up!
