The bands debut album, Rips, is a ragged, raw burst of moody rock. (Oct.)Ĭorrection: An earlier version of this review misstated the title of the author's previous book. Septem Ex Hex is the latest project from singer and guitarist Mary Timony of Helium and Wild Flag. Comedic chaos rules the day, with plenty of laughs overlaying just a touch of introspection as the exes realize how much they still mean to each other. With time running out before Halloween, when “the curse reaches its zenith,” Rhys and Vivi, now a history professor at the college where they met, must find a way to break the curse before it destroys the town-which means finding a way to make peace with each other.
The poor man is felled by mishap after mishap until he discovers the magical cause of his misfortune.
Nine years later, Rhys returns to small-town Graves Glen, Ga., and his trip is disastrous from the moment he steps foot into the town, proving that even as a teenage witch, Vivi packed a punch. The follow-up to Erin Sterlings New York Times bestselling hit The Ex Hex features fan favorite Gwyn and the spine-tinglingly handsome Wells Penhallow as. Curse comes from the old English curs or cors meaning ‘the evil which has been invoked upon one, that which causes severe trouble’, and vex comes from the Old French vexer, meaning ‘harass’, and the Latin vexare meaning ‘to shake, jolt, or toss violently’. Despite only recently learning of her witchy nature, the devastated Vivi put a curse on Rhys with the assistance of her cousin, Gwyn. A hex is an evil spell wishing bad luck and bad things on someone or something. Nineteen-year-old Vivi Jones fell hard for Welsh exchange student Rhys Penhallow-so hard that her heart shattered when he revealed his father was arranging a marriage for him back home. Filled with delightful witchiness and humor, this playful romantic comedy from Sterling ( The Wife Upstairs, written as Rachel Hawkins) explores second chances and self-discovery.
