This was cute. It's a cozy fall read that reminds me a bit of "Ex Hex" but with a fluffier element to it. I loved it.

Witchy Coffee is a fun, quick read and perfect if you’re looking for an enemies to lovers romance! It was cute and easy to get into.

Florence and Samson's relationship started on a rough patch, although they tried very hard to ignore the instant chemistry between them. But with magic in the air and the family, there was no doubt cupid was in the midst. It was an enjoyable and entertaining fun package.

This book was BEAUTIFULLY written! The way everything was described was so pretty, i loved it!
And the humor in this book was top notch 🤌l i was crackling from page 1! it was honestly the saving point of the story.

I didn't feel much chemistry bw the mc's. It was very plain and i didn't have an emotional connection w the li as well!

The story was in 3rd pov and i felt very confused reading this, especially at the beginning. But when we reached the 50% mark, everything was unfolded i guess?? i mean i started to feel a connection w the characters, the plot started to get interesting and i was genuinely curious to read ahead!

Although i would have liked if the book explored the magic aspect more( and there was no need for the ex bf drama!), all in all it was great lighthearted book with the hate to love competition trope!

Nice and enjoyable story overall with interesting characters and plot overall. I haven’t read any other books by the author but I will look it up in the future

Witchy Coffee could technically be seen as a holiday book FYI but not overtly so. It was a good book, a quick read but honestly I was a little confused. It seemed to have a lot going on without a lot of backstory and the ending seemed so rushed and out of nowhere. It was an enjoyable read and so much potential but some parts just fell a little flat for me.

As a coffeeholic, he title alone piqued my interest. A fun read with quirky characters and a paranormal vibe. From the cover I thought this book would take place around maybe Valentine's Day but the characters were celebrating the holiday season up to New Years. Overall, an enjoyable story. I'd love to read more by this author.

Witchy Coffee by Erin Ritch is one of those books that you can't help but love. It has all those great things that make you swoon with just the right amount of magic to uplift your spooky tbr with something to break up all the nightmare inducing reads. It's been a while since I read an entire book in just a few hours, but I couldn't get enough of this quirky romance.

Thank you netgalley and Erin Ritch and BooksGoSocial for the gifted ARC copy.

Florence is getting ready for her Christmas vaca home when her world starts to crumble. She's fired from her beloved barista job and is pretty steamed about it (ha! See what I did there). When she returns to town only to find a stranger attempting to put her family's livelihood in jeopardy, her competitive nature comes out. Unusual circumstances in town start to really shake things up and suddenly love is in the air. The question Florence has to ask herself is can she put her family and their business in front of her own needs and will she lose her shot at true love in the process?

There were so many things to love about this story. The family bonds, the enemies to lovers trope, the coming into oneself themes, there wasn't much I didn't like. Yes the plot was a little predictable, and grandma Pearl was a little cheesy, but even the subtle hints of magic seeping it's way in was just the right touch to make this a great fall read. It was the perfect break up in my spooky tbr to break out the giggles and feel the power of love forming. Plus the story had coffee and witches, so it was great right from the start.

I gave the book a solid 4 stars. It had me laughing out loud and feeling all the feels. This is a great read for a rainy fall afternoon, and it pairs well with my fall favorite, a pecan praline latte. Oh, and right now it's free with Kindle Unlimited, so go grab it ( you can thank me later)!

I was very excited for this book but it just didn't live up to my expectations. I dnfed this one at around 35%

I had a hard time caring about either of the main characters. The plot sounded good but I was just bored. Maybe I will give it another try later on, but for right now. This is a no from me.

This novel takes place during the christmas period in small town America.

Florence has lost her job in a coffee shop so she goes home to Windia, the town she grew up in, where the family coffee shop is a real staple.
However, it turns out that a competitor is trying to buy them out.
Unfortunately, Florence finds herself attracted to the handsome stranger and she finds herself torn.

Very much a story about family. I have to say that I was disappointed with the lack of "witchiness" which was probably the main reason for choosing this book.

This book was so cute, it gave that romance feeling which was so uplifting. I would definitely reread this book over and over again for the happy feeling it gave.

This book was so cute! A perfect mix of rom-com with a sprinkle of witchy magic that left me wanting more. Here is the summary from Goodreads:

"A fanciful coffee shop run by magical women. A barista that’s still trying to figure herself out. And a small town named Windia where the residents are into everyone’s business.

When a stranger shows up in town and puts her family’s coffee shop in jeopardy, Florence Mackenzie has to step in and do something to protect them, whether that’s an Espresso Off challenge, sabotage, or a good old fashioned banishment spell. But after the Mackenize women try to create a buzz by experimenting with a new blend of coffee beans, the residents of Windia suddenly start falling in love with each other. Florence chalks it up to the spirit of the holiday season, but when she starts falling in love (with the competition, no less) Florence starts to wonder if there’s something more bewitching in the air - or in the coffee?

A clean witchy romance set on the enchanting Oregon coastline, Witchy Coffee is filled to the brim with magical hijinks, an authentic enemies-to-lovers romance, and the cozy atmosphere of the Pacific Northwest during the holidays. Settle in with a coffee and slip away to the little town of Windia, where the forest meets the sea and there’s a promise of magic in every corner. "

The characters were adorable and the romance was absolutely swoon-worthy. Highly recommend!

This book was supplied to me by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

The characters in this book really shined through. The was not one character here I did not like. I started off disliking some characters but they were so well written that it was difficult to hold on to the distaste I had.

The Yurt would be on my bucket list to visit if it existed. The feeling of friendship community and love that comes from bit only the Yurt but from the town itself.

I loved this book and felt warm and comforted from beginning to end.

Witchy Coffee by Erin Ritch is a magical romance. A fanciful coffee shop run by magical women. A barista that’s still trying to figure herself out.

Witchy Coffee started strong for me. I enjoyed the set up and the combination of witchy romance, enemies to lovers, and small town vibes. That all worked really well for me. I liked the complicated relationship between Florence and her family, and of the town she had left behind. I really enjoyed the secondary characters and how most of the action in the small town played out. I was engaged and invested in how every thing would come together and turn out. The family connections were fantastic, the small town support and quirks made me happy. The added drama of a noisy reporter and an ex just made things more interesting, even if they each had a couple odd moments for me. Then it felt like things went a bit off track. The last third of the book just felt different from the rest, it just felt like all the subtle magic was not enough and a resolution to the romance needed to be created quickly, so everything went into warp drive and it just did not fit in with the mood of the rest of the book. Then the final chapter wrapped everything up way too closely and neatly- in ways that just did not necessarily make sense to me but succeeded in getting everyone what they needed.

Witchy Coffee is a fun and interesting romance.

This was a sweet fun read. I enjoyed the simplicity of it however it was forgettable. I read this a month ago and I had to refresh my memory as to what it was about.

If you're looking for something fun to read this Halloween this is a quick light-hearted read.

I received an arc of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
