📖 Title: Kiss and Spell

✍🏼 Author: Celestine Martin

📕 Format & Source: Paperback ARC gifted from the publisher

🗓️ Publication: 9.26.23 by Forever

🔥Steam: Slow burn with some super steam

💕Tropes: witchy romance

📝 Notes: 2nd in series

Quick Take: Fun witchy read but it was a strong dose of metaphor overload which took away from the overall enjoyment for me. I enjoyed the smitten events but overall this one didn’t click for me.

Random notes:

✨ I’d love to see the ‘Plan On It’ playlist!

✨ Metaphor overload vs descriptive language

✨ Cringed at the use of my LEAST favorite sexy word ‘moist’ 😆

✨ Some spelling and grammatical errors that bugged me but assuming {hoping} they were caught before the final publication.

⭐️ My Star Rating: 3.0

🩵 Read in September | # 42 of 2023

📚 # 11 of 23 for #23for23

What does your idea of happily ever after look like? Or if you’re a spicy reads fan - what’s your least favorite sexy word used in books?

Thank you for reading The Joyful Book Blogger. This post is public so feel free to share it.
