The Elf Witch by Jacquelyn Gilmore

Thank you so much to The Nerd Fam and Jacquelyn Gilmore for this copy of The Elf Witch! This one comes out March 11th.

📚

After her grandmother's execution, a formerly magicless elf is suddenly the most powerful witch in her village. Magic is disappearing, though, and Imani is thrust into the treacherous court of her kingdom, forced into trials against the most lethal witches in the world.

As she unravels the perilous plan her grandmother plotted before her death to save magic, Imani unwittingly dives deeper into a web of magical and political intrigue that puts her on a collision course with dangers beyond anything she imagined.

But Imani is harboring illicit knowledge of her own—a forbidden dark magic that’s getting more difficult to hide by the day. Now, she must decide whether to make herself a threat and an enemy to her country or risk becoming a pawn and the realm losing magic forever.

Stuck in this predicament, Imani sees only one path forward: a dangerous deal with the duplicitous prince—one she might be falling for.

... Read moreIn 'The Elf Witch,' readers are taken on an enthralling journey through a richly constructed world of magic and danger. Imani, once shy of her powers, bears the weight of her family's legacy and the kingdom’s fate. Themes like forbidden knowledge and moral dilemmas resonate strongly throughout the narrative. Similar works in the fantasy genre explore the struggle between good and evil forces, as seen in popular titles like 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' and 'Throne of Glass.' These books delve into intense emotional connections and character growth amidst chaos. Moreover, the romance between Imani and the duplicitous prince echoes common tropes in fantasy romance, such as 'enemies to lovers,' which captivates readers with its inherent conflict and tension. As magic remains a central theme, the world's rules and limitations provide a thrilling backdrop for Imani's journey. Readers will undoubtedly find themselves contemplating the implications of power, loyalty, and sacrifice as they follow her harrowing quest. The excitement builds as the trials intensify, leaving fans of dark fantasy on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the book's release on March 11th.

An infographic titled 'Non-Negotiable Boundaries in ANY Healthy Relationship' lists boundaries across four categories: how they speak to you, handle anger, respect your body, and treat your time. Each category provides specific examples of unacceptable behaviors, such as no name-calling, no punching walls, no unwanted touching, and no disappearing without explanation.
Non-Negotiable Boundaries In Healthy Relationship
Every healthy relationship—romantic, familial, or platonic—requires boundaries to thrive. Nonnegotiable boundaries are the standards that protect your emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. They are not rules meant to control others, but commitments you make to yourself about what y
