Welcome to Litsy!

Soft pick for me with this one. #XmasChaCha @StayCurious

I tried to read a different genre, thinking maybe I was getting too critical of thrillers at the moment. I also did not know this was a 3rd to a series, having not read the other two books. I do not know if I will after this one. Everything felt super insta love and no real build up or chemistry. Only sexual attraction. Also, the person reading this on audiobook was making the guy sound way older than her, which felt weird in the sex scenes. 2/5

I absolutely loved this addition to the series. In fact, it's my favorite one so far and will be a comfort reread. The characters are loveable and fun and I believe that the author is truly settling into this genre.

This adorable witchy Christmas / Yule romance follows a reclusive witch and the human artifact hunter he really shouldn't get involved with. When a spell sends them both back in time, though, they'll have to confront their pent up feelings and figure out how to make it back to the present before their time is up. Super cute, and I had no trouble following it even though it's the third in a series I haven't read.

Snuggled up for some reading - I‘m a little fuzzy on my memory of the previous two books, but this one is still holding up so far!

This was my favorite of the series. Time traveling and adventures that lead to a great conclusion.

The only Graves Glen book i didn't like. I found it just didn't grab me!

What more could you ask for in a book… witches, Christmas, grumpy/sunshine trope, and plenty of spice to keep your hot chocolate warm… this book had it all! In fact, I think it might be my favorite in the trilogy!

I can‘t be two books into this fun little series and not read the HEA for third Penhallow brother. I also have a soft spot for spot for the grumpy- sunshine trope - reading about how a character is shaped from his past to be the loner he is only to have a bit of sunshine peel away those layers so he can define himself anew. Even if one has to travel to 1957 to get it done.

I really loved The Ex-Hex, so I‘ve continued with the series. This one involves the 3rd brother who is awkward, shy, & a hermit at first. He & his love interest end up time traveling & have to figure out how to get back. A steamy romance with fun magic & plot. Still enjoyed the first book best. #frightclub #hauntedshelf 3.5/5 ⭐️

The latest installment in the Ex Hex series is a delight! Bowen, the last Penhallow brother to find love, is a bit of a recluse, a grumpy magic historian who rarely leaves his Welsh mountaintop. Tamsyn is an American who procures magical artifacts for the right price. Hijinks ensue but they find the only way forward is by helping each other. Sparks fly, and not just the magical ones! Just the right amount of steam. Perfect for Halloween and Yule!

Saturday vibe is catch up! I‘m not doing a good job with my #HauntedShelf tracking/activities. Work & a sinus thing are kicking my booty right now. I‘m ensconced at the coffeeshop this morning, tracking points, catching up on #5JoysFriday posts & writing a Halloween letter for some #LitsyLove replies.

Also debating the tagged book in this series that just came out & my library e-book hold came in. It sounds more Christmasy than Halloween.🤷🏻‍♀️

Love, magic, and broken curses. A great holiday read from witchy season to Christmas season. The banter was great. At about the halfway point, the plot took a hard turn making it a much more convoluted story than it needed to be. Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for a digital ARC.

Two words. Time travel. It‘s witchy. It‘s Christmasy. It doesn‘t take place in Graves Glen for the majority of the story like the rest of the series, but it‘s still fantastic!
