Best Hex Ever by Nadia El-Fassi
This. Was. So. Cute. I love a cute, witchy, rom-com. Dina and her cafe are delightful. Scott and his museum job are a surprise; you don't expect a MMC to work as a curator at a museum! Together they were magic (pun intended). I loved this being set around Eric and Emmy's wedding and them both trying to play match maker; so cute. I was so frustrated with Dina; I kept yelling at the book to "just go tell mommy so she can fix it!" but she wouldn't listen to me! I adored the house and how it was sentient and was working to help things as best as it could. When we FINALLY got mommy involved, I was surprised but not SURPRISED that Dina was the one who put the hex on herself. That the binding spell didn't take because Rory lost consciousness was interesting, but Dina's guilt being why she was cursed was interesting; and that it wasn't just guilt over the binding spell, but fear and guilt. For being a cutesy little rom-com it was very deep. Her making a grand gesture at his big event was sweet, and Emmy and Eric continuing to do some real wing men work was adorable. I liked that the epilogue was farther in the future and that it sets up a book for Rosemary. This was so cute and I will be reading more from this author!
