Welcome to Soul and Witt. I'm Courtney. And I'm Bailey. We are the mother-daughter duo here to make you laugh, grow, and feel more connected to your favorite things.

Hi, Bailey. Hi, Mom. How's your day? It's busy. I'm sorry to hear that. I'm in my busy season.

But I did start to get overly excited about Christmas the other day. So it's I'm balanced now okay yeah I like busy work but also I'm feeling the holiday cheer

because you have a lot of social stuff coming up or nope I was just I was like remember

the Christmas tree twinkleinkle lights, cookies.

And I just got really excited.

I don't have a lot of social Christmas events planned at this time.

Just one.

All right.

Yeah.

How about your favorite things?

Okay.

So the first favorite thing is a book that I finished today. It's called the X-Hex. So it's definitely Halloween-ish. And I know it's no longer Halloween, but I still think you should read it, everybody, because it was so good. It's a cute, like, witch story about, you know, saving a town that's fueled with magic,

and there's a romance as well. It was great. It was really heartwarming. You just loved it.

I feel like I might wait until next year. But if you give me the book, I'll consider it.

Okay. I mean, I have just been peer pressuring everyone into adding it to their list.

But it's really good.

And it's written by an author.

She is using a pen name for this book.

But she wrote The Wife Upstairs, which is a book we both really liked.

And this is like her first foray into romance as opposed to thrillers.

And I think she nailed it and did an amazing job.
