Review: The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling!

The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling

Kindle/318pgs 


 I guess I should have looked at reviews before reading this as I was aware that sex was going to be heavily involved in my witch book *le sigh*


Harry Potter exists in this world and the main characters live "kind of" the same life, which I feel is slightly lazy writing to make sure your reader is aware that Harry Potter exist, and your main character even refers to it and then write the MCs life pretty close to that story as well. Vivi lives with her aunt (no uncle in sight but she even has a cousin living there), her mom was a witch who died when Vivi was young, thou her mom didn't teach her much magic. Vivi works at a college that has a special "magic" building/library. 


Besides that, Vivi is a decent enough character, thought too much about how she dressed and was weird towards the other witches at the school she worked at. Rhys (the love interest/ex from the title, and also our other POV) is also decent, probably should have liked to Vivi about why he had to go back home when he told her about having to break off his engagement since he was falling for her, would have saved everyone some time and trouble. He also said this: <i>Rhys had caused . . . twenty? Two dozen? Too many to count, really.</i> which who says two dozen after saying twenty but what made it so weird/dumb was then he had an interaction with his dad: <i>“Half a year,” his father replied because why say a normal thing like “six months”?</i> but like dude you just said something equally as head scratching so like what? 


The ending was super rushed, like SUPER RUSHED, maybe a page was written detailing the climax of this book, and up to this point it was very boring, nothing noteworthy happen, just tons of sex, the main characters straight up ignore the major issue so they could have more sex.
