The concept of the Witch n Xiz is a fascinating one that has gained popularity in recent years. It combines the traditional idea of a witch with the modern understanding of gender and identity. In traditional folklore and mythology, witches were often portrayed as women who possessed magical powers and used them for both good and evil. They were often seen as social outcasts and were feared and persecuted by their communities. However, the Witch n Xiz challenges these stereotypes by exploring the intersection of witchcraft and non-binary or genderqueer identity. The "n Xiz" part of the term refers to the gender-neutral pronouns "they" and "them" used to identify someone who does not identify strictly as male or female.
With a dark force threatening the town, they’ll have to face their pasts and overcome their distrust to have any chance at a future. Together they can make magic, but will it be enough?
Accidental Magic is a full-length paranormal romance novel featuring a feisty heroine with a sarcastic response to everything and a snarky hero who gives as good as he gets. Impulsive Magic is a full-length paranormal romance novel featuring a headstrong heroine who doesn t know how to quit and a trickster hero who finally met his match.
The "n Xiz" part of the term refers to the gender-neutral pronouns "they" and "them" used to identify someone who does not identify strictly as male or female. By combining this with the concept of a witch, the idea of the Witch n Xiz allows for a more inclusive and diverse understanding of magic and identity. In this context, being a Witch n Xiz means embracing and celebrating a fluid and non-binary understanding of both gender and magic.
Modern Magic by Nicole Hall
This cute short story dragged me into the series and I could not resist. I loved it to pieces. This is a completely new author for me and it was a great way to get to know her writing style and voice.
What can I say? I felt like I hit the jackpot. I love everything about this author, her writing style, her ideas, her world building and her character development, as well as the plot and the way she carried the story. It was great.
This story is slightly comical, there is a lot of magic, the characters are lovable and their chemistry is amazing. I enjoyed it so much that I immediately started reading the next book in the series and bought the upcoming one. Great new author!
I love this series! This story is more serious that the prequel and gives the series a whole new tone and atmosphere, but this didn’t change how I feel about the series. It is still fantastic just a bit more serious than the prequel.
The author further develops the world and presents a different set of characters. this time we have a different couple and several side characters which will get their own books later and I have to say, I devoured it in one go and can’t wait to see what happens next. I loved all the characters and I can’t wait to see what happens with them.
There is a lot of magic, but that was to be expected, however, the secrets and the intrigue were quite unexpected and, well, intriguing. The author did a great job unraveling some of the mysteries while keeping some of them for later books and I am dying to know what happens next. I feel like I’m repeating that but the truth is, the author has me hooked and I am loving every minute of it.
This is a fast paced book full of action, and although there is significant portion of romance in here, the main story still revolves around magical events and saving the world. This is really a great series and I highly recommend it.
