Fix-It Witches #2
Boss Witch
The second in an adorable witchy rom-com series by New York Times bestselling author Ann Aguirre, perfect for fans of:
Ride-or-die female friendships
A bisexual heroine who stubbornly refuses to accept help
A hero with an incredibly pesky moral conscience
A mouse named Benson who may or may not have all the answers to life, magic, and love (Spoiler: he does!)
Clementine Waterhouse is a perfectly logical witch. She doesn't tumble headlong into love. Rather she weighs the pros and cons and decides if a relationship is worth pursuing. At least that's always been her modus operandi before. Clem prefers being the one in charge, always the first to walk away when the time is right. Attraction has never struck her like lightning.
Until the witch hunter comes to town.
Gavin Rhys hates being a witch hunter, but his family honor is on the line, and he needs to prove he's nothing like his grandfather, a traitor who let everyone down. But things in St. Claire aren't what they seem, and Gavin is distracted from the job immediately by a bewitching brunette with a sexy smile and haunting secrets in her eyes.
Can the bossiest witch in town find a happy ending with the last person she should ever love?

i didn't particularly enjoy the first book but was ready and willing to give this one a go. i shouldn't have 😬
the audiobook narration was pretty bad which certainly didn't help. but the main issue here was the, for lack of a better word, random way that this was paced. there is absolutely no lead up to our main characters meeting and then they start dating immediately? the conflict was lackluster, the side characters uninspired, and the sex scenes tepid. skip.

Boss Witch by Ann Aguirre
Fix-it Witches series book 2. Paranormal romance. Can be read as a stand-alone but some references to the first book would make it better having read the first. The two stories run along the same time line. Dual POV.
Gavin is a witch-Hunter doing his job under duress. He’s never liked spying and he likes it even less now that he’s come to know the community and one interesting female in particular.
Their lives aren’t as easy as walking away though so it’s going to get messy.
Entertaining with more witchy-ness in this book than the first. Both Clem and Gavin have family issues over and above that just by point of his job, they should be on opposite sides. But their chemistry overrides the danger and has them each questioning the future.
Slow initial burn to plenty of steamy interludes.
Clear indications at the end on whose book is next. I can’t wait!
🎧 I subsequently listened to an audiobook copy narrated by Ava Lucas. I enjoyed the performance more for the personalities which came through clearly. The voices were distinct even at 1.5 which was my preference for regular conversation speed. An unexpected voice addition was more amusing in the audio.
I received a copy of this from NetGalley.

This book would be much better if Witch Please didn’t exist. All of the witches are like, “Woe is us, these witch hunters want to hurt us when we’re just simple innocent people!” Totally ignoring how much hurt and manipulation has been done to Titus and other mundanes directly by their un-policed witchy actions in Witch Please. I’m not saying the witches deserve to be murdered over this or anything, but to claim that they are innocent victims to the cruelty of witch hunters is laughably downplaying their unchecked power.
I don’t think that Clem is a particularly well written character. Her “plan” of sexually distracting Gavin while he’s in town to hunt witches doesn’t do anything to foil his plans of exposing the local witches. He’s still hot on the trail in between their dates. She’s not using her distracting time wisely either, and conveniently forgets to do any research into how to get rid of witch hunters in the time she’s buying by distracting him. It’s the thinnest excuse ever for her fake seduction plans. I know she quickly feels real feelings, but how she didn’t see through that as possibility when setting up cutesy adorable dates is unfathomable. None of her coven is helping her either. For such a serious threat, they’ve all pretty much all washed their hands of it.
Also Gaslight Grandma is up to her old bullshit by being absolutely atrocious and pushing Clem’s estranged dad back into her and her mother’s lives. I wanted some serious comeuppance for Gram and I don’t think what we get is enough for all the injustice she’s put her whole family through.
On a positive note, I think the pacing was better, and story was an improvement over Witch Please. Without revealing too much, I thought the twist was really clever and I didn’t see it coming. It just wasn’t enough to save the book.

I was slightly confused in this book finding that I seemed to have missed chunks or that the world building seemed slightly off and then I realized that this was a sequel and I totally missed the first one, which is on me. Beyond that and taking those not really faults aside, I really enjoyed this story.
Boss Witch is about Clementine, a witch who works as a techno-witch in small town, fixing computers and what not. She is driven by her coven to protect them when a witch hunter comes to town and Clem decides to be a really distracting distraction by dating him away. It gets complicated, obviously.
This book was a pretty fun rom-com. I enjoyed the light magic world build and complicated family dynamics. I really liked the romance between the two main characters which obviously was needed to enjoy most of the story since it was the main focus. Clem was a difficult character but an understandable one and her dynamic worked with the love interest even if it didn’t always make her look the best with other characters. She seemed particularly hard to her cousin who I understand is the main character of the first book so I look forward to that.
There is definitely a level of cheesiness but I wanted that. I loved the cute random dates and chemistry and the spice was nice. The plot is loose but keeps the story moving forward and a ‘plot hole’ I questioned turned out to be a feature not a bug!
I listened to this on audio, narrated by Ava Lucas who generally did a great job though I did not like her ‘male’ voice for the main love interest and it was very distracting.
Thank you to Netgalley and Dreamscape Media for this audio ARC! I plan on going back and reading the first and then following up for the next book!

I have received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Boss Witch is the second installment within the Fix-It Witches series. In this, you are following the romance that eventually blossoms between Clementine and Gavin. Just like the previous book, I really enjoyed watching them grow closer to one another. They had amazing chemistry if I'm being honest. So, it's safe to assume that I just loved them unconditionally. Maybe even supernaturally.
The only downside is she's a witch and he's a witch hunter. It really hurt me when she found out the truth and then lied to him about her true feelings. Claiming everything was a ruse between them when we all know it wasn't. It just couldn't be the truth because deep down I knew how they felt. They couldn't walk away from one another that easily, could they?
Eventually other secrets come out towards the end and one of them left me in shock. This little reveal definitely helped Clem and Gavin get even closer to one another. Which made me happy because I wanted them together no matter what.
In the end, I'm so happy that I found this series and can't wait for the next book to come out. Super excited to watch Leanne and Trevor fall in love.

So, maybe it wasn't the best idea to read Boss Witch right after reading Witch Please because it made certain character traits of Danica and Clem read completely different and I'm still struggling with how to really interpret that. On the one hand, excellent characterization because are we not all the Main Character in our own story and therefore inclined to see things from only our perspective? On the other hand, it's really hard to read book one where Clem seems so driven and focused on... Her idea of right vs. wrong, I suppose, and she comes across as harsh and unsupportive. Then in Boss Witch she doesn't really ever seem to reckon fully with that interpretation of her actions and almost doubles down, aside from when she has this two sentence realization that maybe grandma's thoughts and indoctrination had more of an impact on her than she realized. And so in Boss Witch we see Danica being careless and thoughtless about many of her actions, which makes sense from Clem's point of view, but is sort of hard to read about because you can't then see her grow because her book is already over. And obviously, people don't end a book and go from messy to perfect, but it's just sort of disconcerting.
Also, maybe the entirety of the above paragraph is not something that is actually that important to you or to the story and I can certainly see why it wouldn't bother anyone else besides me, so let's talk about some of the other aspects of Boss Witch. So, as indicated by the set up of this book in Witch Please, a witch hunter has come to town and he's clearly going to be Clem's love interest in Boss Witch. And in fact, we pick up a little back in time from where Witch Please ends and spend about half of the book covering the period of time we saw glimpses of in Witch Please. I don't always love books that cover similar ground as the prior book in the series, so that could have been part of my issue here. But I think more than that, it's the fact that this deception paired with the fact that (at least theoretically) a witch hunter is trying to, you know, HUNT witches and a witch is falling for him, should be a little more angsty than this was? I'm not sure I can really explain how I wish that this book had handled that plot line better, but for me, it just didn't quite give me the feelings I was hoping and thought that it would.
Turning now to the audio narration because I was lucky enough to receive an advanced listening copy via Netgalley... I liked the narration for this book a lot! I think I would have been tempted to DNF actually if I hadn't been listening to it, but it was a good time and it made me accomplish a lot of chores and just kept me company on a Saturday. So I would recommend picking up the audio if you're going to read this book!
And again, thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the audio review copy!

Read this book in one day. It was so good.
Boss Witch is the sequel to Witch Please in the witchy rom com Fix-It-Witches series. I actually haven’t read the first one but I own it. 🙈 I saw this one pop up on NetGalley and knew I wanted it.
⠀
Clementine Waterhouse is a bisexual witch, incredibly stubborn, and so self-sufficient to the point of it being a flaw. Her coven is in trouble when a witch hunter shows up in town yelling about witches. Clem volunteers to handle the situation, but her only semblance of a plan is to date him to keep him distracted from witch hunting.
⠀
Gavin is unaware he is fake dating Clem and definitely has real feelings for her. I loved how Gavin makes mistakes and owns them, instead of making excuses for himself.
⠀
The majority of the time when books switch character 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 mid chapter I dislike it and find it confusing. Especially on audio books. But somehow Ann Aguirre did this perfectly and at just the right time, when I was curious what the other character was thinking. The 𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀 were very spicy and fun, they also had me blushing. 😊 The 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 and magical intricacies were perfect. The 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 were amazingly realistic and flawed but lovable, including the side characters. I loved every second of this story and will be (not-so) patiently waiting for the third book.

So funny! I love this series. So far I've read two of them (completely out of order) and thoroughly enjoyed them both.
The audiobooks are performed by Ava Lucas, who does a lovely job. Though her voice for Gavin is pretty awful lol. It was charming though.

Thanks to Netgalley for this audio ARC, the book drops April 5th.
Neygalley's summary doesn't give away that this is second in a series, and it probably should have. This book leans enough on nods to the first that the feeling of missing something kept hitting me. I probably wouldn't have requested if that was more clear. That and some other things leave me giving this two stars.
I was so bored and I wish that wasn't the case. I think this book's writing wasn't great to begin with, needed more editing, and in this case, the audio performance didn't elevate the material at all.
The narrator, she tried, and her general narration and voice for the protagonist was clear and classy. But the male love interest. He sounded awful and pinched, grunted, like it was a struggle to attempt the voice; the accent often sounded more Australian than English to me, too. The same went for her voicing of our protagonist's Scottish father; it was like the focus was on accent and not actual emotive tone. They should have sprung for dual narrators. This was absolutely a dealbreaker and left me skipping ahead.
Most importantly, I didn't really feel chemistry between the leads, probably because of the really imbalanced attention to detail. For example, the first sex scene was alright, if it hadn't immediately afterward been referred to as "exchanging bodily fluids". Sexy.
This weirdly clinical way of describing things often cropped up. As a reader, I appreciate clothing and hair descriptions a lot to see a character. What I don't need is excruciating detail on the appliances available in the male lead's air bnb, down to the buttons on the tv remote. It slowed down what was supposed to be fluffy witchy chick lit.
By the halfway point I had lost all interest and it was a chore to finish this book. On to the next.

Really struggled with this audiobook. The narrator does not do a good accent for the male lead and the "voice" she's doing for him changes over the chapters (which is actually a good thing because the initial voice was terrible, I was honestly shocked when the female lead said something about his sexy British accent... I thought she was going for New Jersey, or maybe Rizzo the Rat?)
The story itself is boring and tonally off. It's a light, fluffy romcom... Where the hero is there to murder the heroine and all her family? Like that is pretty dark but the book doesn't treat it that way. I don't know, maybe I missed a key part where they explained that "witch hunter" doesn't mean what I think it means, but I don't understand why the vibe is so fiddle-dee-dee about the base premise. Also it is just straight up hard to root for a girl who knows a guy wants to kill her family but still wants to bang him, or a grown man who is hunting people at the behest of his abusive dad? I mean, cool if that storyline works for you, but if it does, the cutesy romcom vibe of this book is probably not the packaging you are hoping to find it in.

Omigoodness I didn’t think it was possible to love a witchy romance more than the first book in this series, but Boss Witch absolutely stole my whole heart! The MCs grapple with redemption and unlearning toxic world views, and healing from unhealthy family patterns and learning to accept care, and yet somehow the book is still effervescent and joyful?! Also, I loved getting a deeper dive into world building! And the sweet intergenerational friendships made me so happy!
Most importantly, there is the cutest mouse in the world, my favorite character, known as Benson!

Witch Passing? This book had me for the first 40%’ish of it and then it became a slog but I kept reading. What I really appreciate about this series thus far is it’s take on race and identity and the current generation’s questions about “Why don’t we like_____?” “What has_____group of people done to us to make us hunt them the way they do?” That’s this series strong suit for me.
Unlike most contemporary series where you can read each book as a standalone, this one felt like it picked up days after Witch Please ended so tread lightly, read that one prior to picking this one up if it’s of interest to you.
It’s never called Passing in the story but that’s what I’m calling it. An important character essentially finds out that they are actually part/ of the same race of people they have been told to hate (probably happens in real life more than people want to acknowledge) and I wish this would’ve been introduced earlier and explored more rather than told when it was and used as a cheap way to contribute to the conflict.

2.5 stars
Well, I liked this one better than the first, but only marginally.
Clem was the bright spot of the previous book, so I was pretty excited to get to this one. Her inner monologue is as crunchy as I expected and I never really settled into it. Gavin seems charming, but it could just be the British thing. Together they do have some chemistry, sadly not enough to carry the story.
Plot wise, it was meh. Scenes felt repetitive and not just because of the overlap of scenes from book one. I didn’t quite get the tension build up and the conflict was easily resolved without any real magical fighting.
Overall, I was mildly intrigued to see how it ended, but did skim through this one. I don’t think I’ll be reading any more in this series.
**Huge thanks to the publisher for providing the arc free of charge**

July 6, 2022I read several chapters of this and was bored, which is frankly not what you want from a witch hunter falls in love with a witch romance.
March 11, 2022
Absolutely entertaining! This book overlaps the first book as it shows some of the same timeline, but this time from Clem and Gavin's point of view. Intriguing, delightfully funny with building suspense and great bedroom antics to keep you entertained for hours, The war between the witches and the hunters is building leaving Clem and Gavin not only in the middle, but on opposite sides. A great paranormal romance with several subplots overlapping the main plot to give the story more depth and decidedly more entertainment! I can't wait to listen to the next book in the series as this series has been absolutely fantastic to listen to! I really hope there will be more books in this series!

This was entertaining.
I love me a witchy read and this one was exactly what I hoped for.
Characters on opposite sides of a "war" coming together and finding happiness.
I was all in!
This is book 2 in a series, but I went in not having read book 1.
Can totally be read as a stand alone.

This is book 2 in a series, but I went in not having read book 1.
Can totally be read as a stand alone.

Boss Witch featured an interesting premise with a romance between a witch and a witch hunter.
Clementine Waterhouse has always been the responsible one, the one to take charge. She never goes into a situation without a plan and she certainly doesn't fall headlong into love. At least that was the case until the witch hunter came to town. Gavin Rhys hates being a witch hunter but it's a family tradition and he doesn't want to be like his grandfather, a traitor who helped the other side. But the situation in St. Claire isn't what it seems and Gavin begins to question what he's really doing there. When he meets Clem he quickly becomes more interested in her than he does in finding the witches hiding in town. Can there really be a happily ever after for a witch and a witch hunter?
The premise of Boss Witch, a witch and a witch hunter falling in love, sounded like it would be entertaining so I was looking forward to picking this one up. Ultimately the book didn't work for me but it wasn't because of the premise. The whole witch hunter thing was actually pretty interesting and I enjoyed learning more about how they came to be and how their organization worked. Gavin uncovers a lot of old secrets about the witch hunters and brings about a lot of changes by the end of the book. I found those revelations to be pretty neat and I liked the direction the author took that part of the plot.
The romance between Clem and Gavin is where this book fell apart for me. The book started off the with two having amazing chemistry and I loved the scene between them at the bar right after Gavin arrives in town. Unfortunately after that their chemistry dried up and I didn't buy the connection between them at all. There were a few cute moments like when Clem bought him a mouse as he'd never had a pet before but a few cute moments isn't enough for me to buy in to the romance. I didn't like all the lying since Clem knew he was the hunter but he initially didn't know she was a witch. I was hoping it was going to go the route of they both knew the truth and then they'd fall for each other despite knowing it's forbidden. By the end of the book I found myself just not caring about the pair's romance.
Overall while Boss Witch had some interesting moments, the romance ultimately didn't work for me.

Thank you to SourceBooks and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!
3/5 ⭐️s
It’s mind-boggling to me that Ann Aguirre is also the author of Strange Love, one of my favorite alien romances. This duology of small town witches is so different in comparison!
Boss Witch had some shining moments. I loved Clem and Gavin’s struggle to not fall for each other. They both have secrets that keep them from fully committing, and that angst is delicious! The plot with the witch hunters was the best part of this book, and I wish we’d focused more on that. I hadn’t read Witch Please before reading this, so the subplot with Clem’s family left me more confused than interested.
I think I would’ve loved this more if there wasn’t so much jarring attention to detail. I don’t need every meal described to me dish by dish. It doesn’t make me feel like I’m in the story. If anything, it pushes me out of the story in an awkward way.
Overall, this was a cute romcom! Not my favorite, but a quick and easy read.

Another entertaining installment in the Fix-It witches series. I really enjoyed this dual perspective, opposites attract, forbidden romance between Clem and Gavin. When witch hunter Gavin comes to the small town of St. Clair the witches go on high-alert, sending Clem to investigate how much he knows. The trouble is, jaded about love Clem, finds Gavin hard to resist!
Sizzling chemistry, some steamy open door scenes and an adorable mouse familiar make this paranormal romance an easy win! I can't wait for the next book in this series. Perfect for fans of Not the witch you wed or The ex hex. Great on audio too. Much thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my advance review copy! All opinions are my own.

You can't get a more forbidden romance than a witch and a witch hunter! I love this series, especially Witch Please, but this one had a slightly bumpy start for me. I think partly due to the timeline overlapping book one, the beginning insta-lust between Clem and Gavin felt rushed to me. But as their feelings became more concrete, I truly grew to love this couple, Benson the mouse, and the risk of jeopardizing their separate missions.
Attempting to distract Gavin in order to protect her coven, I really loved Clem. She's a little moody and blunt, but also fiercely protective of those close to her. Gavin was the one to really shine for me, though. Not fully understanding his purpose as a witch hunter, mostly following out of obligation, I loved seeing him push back against the constraints from his father. There was much more witch history in this one, and it was really interesting to see it unfold. And I totally didn't expect the twist.
Although I didn't love this as much as book one, the conclusion has me incredibly intrigued for book three!

Originally published at Reading Reality
I often begin the review of a second book in a series by speaking about how it picked up where the story left off, but that’s not even accurate here.
Boss Witch picks up in the middle of Witch, Please, showing the reader the events of the second half of that first book from a different perspective in the first half of this one.
So, on the one hand, new readers won’t feel like they’ve missed much by starting here. Howsomever, readers of the previous book may start out wondering WTF is going on and whether we’re going to learn anything new about this charming (in multiple senses of the word) little Midwestern town and the witches who live there, hiding in plain sight among the mundanes.
The switch in perspective from Danica to Clementine Waterhouse, cousins and sisters-of-the-heart, as they deal with the crisis that cropped up in Witch, Please in their very separate ways.
Danica’s magic spiked out of control in that first book, spiking high enough to draw the attention of one of the dreaded – and dreadful – witch hunters. But Clementine has a plan to deal with Witch Hunter Gavin Rhys. (Clementine ALWAYS has a plan, that’s part of her function in the excruciatingly dysfunctional Waterhouse family.)
While Danica is off ‘billing and cooing’ with the love of her life, her magically mundane ‘Cinnaman’, Clementine will do what she’s done all of their lives and clean up her cousin’s mess.
But Clem is tired of being the person who gets ALL the jobs done ALL the time in their family. It’s not about work, the ‘Fix-It Witches’ shop that the cousins share. Well, it isn’t ALL about the work. It’s about Clem being the fixer-upper in their family who has taken charge and gotten the shit that needs doing done since her mother started dumping too many of her adult emotions and woes on her then-teenaged daughter.
As I said, this family is not functional, and they have never put the ‘fun’ in dysfunctional in any way, shape or form. Clem is tired, and stressed, and tired of batting clean-up all the time and then getting blamed for ‘hurting’ someone by mentioning that she’s tired of cleaning up after them. She’s a bit blunt and abrasive but she’s earned it. But she sucks it up to keep the peace – and to keep her family from having a meltdown which she will, again, have to soothe and fix.
I feel her pain. (I like Clem. Her family, on the other hand, drives me up a wall.)
So, when Clem volunteers to distract Gavin Rhys from hunting for all the witches in town, starting with her cousin Danica, it starts out as just another thing she has to take care of for everyone else.
When Clem distracting Gavin turns into Clem and Gavin distracting each other, in bed and out, Clem realizes that however it started, her relationship that shouldn’t be has become something that she’s doing just for herself – and just for him. At least until all the secrets start coming out of the woodwork to take down Clem, her coven sisters – and Gavin.
Escape Rating C+: I really need to start picking books this week where I like the characters a whole lot more than I did yesterday and today.
The Waterhouse family of witches absolutely does not put the fun in dysfunctional. The real problem at the core of the family is that Gram is more toxic than the Wicked Witch of the West, and unfortunately a big chunk of the story that repeats between Witch, Please and Boss Witch is the revelation of just how toxic and manipulative Gram really is, and just how much and how often she reaches out to damage and demean every other woman in the family – meaning her daughters and her granddaughters. She’s honestly a greater force for evil than the witch hunters – and is that EVER saying something!
One of the problems I had with Witch, Please is that even after Gram’s lies and manipulations are uncovered, she doesn’t get the comeuppance she deserves. So the story has to deal with it all again in this book, and she still doesn’t take delivery of the message. That left this reader unsatisfied with that part of the story. Again.
OTOH, the witch hunter saga does manage to get surprisingly neatly tied up with a big bow in a way that gives Gavin’s crisis of both conscience and the heart a lot of emotional weight. The way that Gavin’s situation is resolved, both as a witch hunter AND with his own uber-toxic father, was wonderfully cathartic. (If only Gavin’s dad and Clem’s Gram could share a prison cell for a while…)
But on my third hand – the one belonging to my familiar, perhaps – resolving the witch hunter danger at the end of this book, does make the thought of the third book in the series, Extra Witchy, feel more than a bit anticlimactic (no matter how many climaxes the characters manage to experience) – particularly as it looks like the first half of that story runs parallel to the second half of this one.
So, color me curious about how this all works out into HEAs all around. We’ll see when Extra Witchy drops in October.

This is a cute world and I enjoy reading about the witches and their romances. Clem is level headed and has decided that relationships aren't really for her. Then a witch hunter rolls into town and she's tasked with distracting him from finding their paranormal community. Attraction quickly sparks and Clem has to decided if she can be with someone who hunts witches or if she needs to shut down and go back to her lonely life.
I loved the representation in this. Clem is bisexual and it seems like Gavin is pansexual (though it isn't explicitly stated.) It's nice seeing more LGBTQ+ characters in romances. I also enjoyed Clem standing up to her biased grandmother and her parents who use her as a toy to fight over. I'm always excited to see strong women not taking any crap from anyone.
The romance in this is fun and I thought Gavin was a good match for Clem. We also saw Danica in her happy life with Titus, which made me happy. Looking forward to the next book!

Absolutely entertaining! This book overlaps the first book as it shows some of the same timeline, but this time from Clem and Gavin's point of view. Intriguing, delightfully funny with building suspense and great bedroom antics to keep you entertained for hours, The war between the witches and the hunters is building leaving Clem and Gavin not only in the middle, but on opposite sides. A great paranormal romance with several subplots overlapping the main plot to give the story more depth and decidedly more entertainment! I can't wait to listen to the next book in the series as this series has been absolutely fantastic to listen to! I really hope there will be more books in this series!

This just didn’t do it for me. I probably would have given up on it if I wasn’t set on reading something to start getting me ready for fall/spooky season and I was really in a romance mood.
The plot wasn’t exciting and felt repetitive at some points. The romance has some good spice but otherwise fell flat. By about the halfway point, I was interested in seeing what happened but I feel like I started to skim just to get there.

Trigger warnings: toxic parenting, toxic grandparenting(??), emotional abuse, gaslighting, cheating (in the past), mentions of abandonment, lying.
Well this was cute. I was really curious how this book was going to play out after thoroughly enjoying the first book last year, and this didn't disappoint. I loved the dynamic between the two of them, and the reveals that happen in the course of the story were definitely intriguing.
I also really loved the relationship between Gavin and his grandfather - frankly, I wanted a little more of that - and I loved that the story is about both of them standing up for themselves and their beliefs as much as it is about their romance.
My one gripe here would be the fact that Clem's bisexuality is literally one of the first things mentioned in the blurb and yet in the story her bisexuality is essentially a throwaway line about how she's considered dating another woman in her coven. And so as a result, it felt a little like Aguirre was dropping it up front to lure readers in and then it's literally only mentioned once and it's in passing. IDK, it just kind of gave me the ick to market your book as having a bi heroine and then for her sexuality to barely warrant a mention.

Oh boy..
there’s nothing I dislike more then a person that can’t say no. A person that constantly volunteers to do everything and then later complains that SHES DOING EVERYTHING. That is the female in this book. She’s the constant victim. I mean it’s only getting 2 stars because there’s a mouse that eventually talks and I made up this whole story that this mouse ( his name is Ben ( I think)) is related to the mouse from the podcast Wooden Overcoats. So this mouse too is writing his memoirs. The life of a mouse living with a recovering witch HUNTER..

What to expect: dual POV, forbidden romance, bi witch who i love, witch hunters, a cute mouse
The second book in the fix-it witches series was just as spicy and fun as the first! I loved the overlapping stories. Gavin Rhys is amazing and he's british and has two hot names so it was lovely
Spice: 3

Fresh Fiction
Ann Aguirre is one of my favorite authors, so I’m always excited about reading one of her books! BOSS WITCH is the newest installment to her Fix-It Witches series and this entire concept really drew me in because of its uniqueness. Not only is it not something I have seen very much of lately, but it’s also quite a departure from Aguirre’s other style of books. Needless to say, I was intrigued.
This book is much lighter than her other works, but it pairs nicely with the trends that are popular right now. I love the witch element but felt like there was something missing. I enjoyed the banter and the characters, but I hoped to see more in terms of the plot. It was a quick read that felt more like a refresher for me.
If you’re looking for something charming with a bit of a twist, then BOSS WITCH might be something for you, especially if you like witches.
