November 1, 2024October 28, 2024 melanie

“Never mix vodka and witchcraft.” Nine years ago, Vivienne Jones nursed her broken heart like any young witch would: vodka, weepy music, bubble baths…and a curse on the horrible boyfriend.

October 11, 2024October 9, 2024 melanie

“Virginity is a concept invented by people to make women feel worthless for having sex.” Marymount girls are good girls.
