In Eighteen and Witchy, Helene Montoya takes readers on a personal and candid journey through her life as an 18-year-old, exploring the intersection of adulthood, self-discovery, and witchcraft. Through journal-like entries, Helene navigates the curiosities of the occult, modern-day witchcraft, and ancient myths while juggling the everyday challenges of young adulthood, such as classes, friendships, and her daily routines.
Beginning on October 1, 2024, the book delves into her fascination with witchcraft and how it influences her worldview, routines, and self-care practices. Helene mixes humor, introspection, and authenticity as she shares her experiences learning from online resources, books, and her own explorations of the craft. With a sharp wit and a keen sense of wonder, she recounts everything from deep midnight musings on mythology to mundane daily activities like attending college lectures, enjoying McDonald's, and binge-watching South Park.
Through her story, Eighteen and Witchy reflects the essence of being 18-navigating responsibilities while finding meaning in magical and mystical elements of the world around her. It's a thoughtful, relatable, and often witty narrative of self-exploration in an enchanting new chapter of life.
