Episode 12: Glenda’s Story of Books, Magic, and Family: Get Lit with the Good Witch

In this episode we dive into a magical story about reading, family and living life on purpose. For Glenda Gracia-Rivera, the joy of reading has always been more than just turning pages; it's her sanctuary, her happy place, a portal into worlds where imagination and emotion danced freely. Books give her comfort, culture, history and strength, and it was through this love that she created her Instagram book club, Get Lit with the Good Witch. What started as a cozy corner for kindred spirits to share thoughts, laughter, and the magic of storytelling soon became something far greater. One day, amid the comments and book discussions and reviews, someone reached out via email; someone who was a match from AncestryDNA. After a long heartfelt conversations, finally, the discovery of a truth that would change everything: Glenda had found her siblings, who had been searching for her for years. What began as a celebration of books transformed into a reunion of hearts. Through the magic of words and community, Get Lit with the Good Witch became not only a place for stories, but the story of Glenda’s own; one of rediscovery, connection, and the power of reading to lead us home.
