Tomorrow is the day my daughters’ favorite book series, The Sisters Grimm, becomes a TV show. They’ve been re-reading for months in anticipation. The whole house is abuzz with excitement. Thank you @whatsupbuckley.bsky.social for this wonderful story. We can’t wait!

Hekate by Nikita Gill

Hekate is finally having her moment!
I just got this beauty, and I can’t wait to dive in.

I’ve loved Hekate since I read Macbeth back in HS. I’ve been greatly influenced by her in my own writing.

My Greek myth-loving, witchy little heart might burst. 🖤

I wrote my upcoming verse novel Hekate inspired by ancient Greek poet and playwright Euripides’ structure. I loved writing this book and was bereft when I finished it. It’s one of those stories that lingers - an intimating goddess of necromancy telling us her origins.
Black and gold cover featuring triple goddess figure of Hekate, goddess of necromancy and the crossroads. Golden owls on either side and white hound around her legs.

I can’t remember the last time I devoured a book series this fast. I loved everything about this original duology: the lush gothic atmosphere, angst-ridden characters, and fascinating magic system. And what a satisfying ending.

What’s the last book you couldn’t put down?

Family trip to Salem, MA. Summer is a much less hectic time to visit. We got to see all the literary, historical and WITCHY places. And I got a lot of inspiration for a new project I’m planning. 🧙‍♀️🐈‍⬛🔮

The night is still as Calypso plunges her dagger into the bark of a Red Tree, carving deeper as the trunk squirms with each cut. Thick branches above her shake, dropping a crop of crimson leaves in protest. A low warning echoes from the depths beneath the soil as the ground shifts. Slowly a root snaps up, lifting itself to freedom, slithering toward her like an eyeless serpent.

Enjoy long-term narratives—filler episodes and all? ETHERI is character-driven, snarky, and sometimes just vibes. If you love a good fight scene, feeling the feels, and stories that linger, this is for you.

The book cover for ETHERI by Sage T. Greene. A hand reaching up over a blue galaxy background. Synopsis As an Etheri, Mari lacks physical strength and mana control. She feels destined to play the supporting role for her partner Rhu (a natural talent and future Lord of Newhaven) and her cousin Junie (the confident and beautiful one). But when Mari learns that Junie is a member of the Blaze—a mysterious criminal organization—she isn’t sure what to think. Mari finds herself learning about the Blaze and gets embroiled in their misadventures. By the time Junie’s identity is leaked to the Etheri villages and the Blaze comes under attack, Mari is no longer convinced that she can pick a side, but failing to do so begins to endanger not just herself, but the people she loves. Mari must choose where her loyalties lie: with her village, with her friends, or with herself. A Note From the Author (What to Expect) This series is for readers who are all about the journey. Think of the trilogy like a long-running anime: there are high-stakes arcs, but also the occasional "filler episode"—moments that are meant to breathe and add levity. Book 1 is the first of several arcs; the MC’s problems are far from over. Expect a reading experience that is more literary than commercial. It’s character-driven, emotionally complex, and a little quirky—just like real people. If that sounds like your kind of story, I hope you’ll come along for the ride. – Sage 🌿 Mood boards for each book in the ETHERI Trilogy and some notes of what you'll find in the trilogy. You will find: New Adult Action Fantasy, FMC, Reluctant Protagonist, Mana, Combat, Banter, Test of Loyalty, Anxiety Rep, Loss, Grief, Revenge, Mind Reading, Animal Companions, Gathering the Team, Trilogy. Mood board for Etheri. Book cover (hand reaching up, stars/magic). A desert. Desert plants. Combat fighting (kicking, fists raised). Mana/magic fighting (glowing orb). A forest trail.
