I am so adopting this! From now on, every time I will feel bad for buying *more* books I will tell myself “ At least I’m not spending all of it on drugs!” 🤷🏼♀️😌
Yes! Some books are just meant for a particular season...I bet you would love the evocations of autumn in Sylvia Townsend Warner's VERY witchy novel Lolly Willowes. An oldie but a goodie!
Weyward was one of my favourite books of last year! I loved it because it managed to do historical fiction x witches without being totally bleak and depressing.
Currently reading The Once and Future Witches (maybe 1/4 left or a little less) and It's one of my favorite reads of the year. The characters have so much depth to them; they're imperfect but also so loveable. The mix of women's rights and women's empowerment through magic is just perfect 👌 100% recommend 🍂🧙♀️
That's what I always say, I could be spending my money on worse things, and its not a waste to spend money on something will educate you, increase your vocabulary, and make you more empathetic.
The new T. kingfisher “A Sorceress Comes to Call” seems like it could make your list. She has a wonderful dark and humorous writing style. One of my new favorite authors 🖤
I would also recommend Threadneedle: a YA (but quite dark) about a secret coven of witches in a magical London, with themes of coming of age and female friendships ❤ One of my favourite books this year!
I re-read (audiobooks) Katherine Howe’s “The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane” and “The Daughter of Temperance Hobbs” every October for some historical fiction involving Salem witch trials and modern academia. And if you’re a fan of Stranger Things, “We ride upon sticks” by Quan Barry is a hilarious read mixing Salem witch trials and 1980s high school field hockey team that will tap into the dark side to keep winning. These books make transitioning to autumn enjoyable!
I have to say I love your list, I have some of th same on my TBR list. That being said, I read A witch's guide to fake dating a Demon, and it is GREAT! Really funny as well, Mariel and Ozorth are great. I am currently keeing my eyes peeled for the 2nd one, A demons guide to wooing a witch.
You look so witchy & Beautiful, Alice! Love the clothes & lipstick! 👄🖤great book recommendations! I’ve read a few, Weyward 4/5; League of GW 3/5; In the company of witches 4/5; The unfortunate SE I DNF’d it which was so disappointing as it was so hyped. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts 🗡️🪄
Have you read any of Paula Brackston? She writes a lot of Witch books! I like them! Look up her books. Also lots of cozy witch books I have so many I like! Curse The Day by Annabel Chase, Bait and Witch by Angela Sanders, Be Careful What you Witch for by Dawn Castman, Spell Booked A retired Witches Mystery by Joyce and Jim Lavene, The Witchlings Girl by Helena Coggan, Mark of the Wicked by Georgia Bowers, Hex Appeal by Kate Johnson, Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco, The Witches Stacy Schiff, Witch Way to Murder by Shirley Damsgaard, and Legacy of Witches by Cass Kay I have so many more I want to read
I've read "In the Company of Witches" and "Small Town Big Magic" - they were both fun reads; not my favorites, but entertaining enough to keep you reading until the end. I have "The League of Gentlewomen Witches" and "Once and Future Witches" on my shelf, so thanks for the reminder that I need to get back to those this fall. Happy reading.
Lovely TBR! I'm looking forward to your thoughts on a few of them. On my TBR for autumn, I have Magic Lessons by Alice Hoffman (can't wait), The Hex Ex by Erin Sterling (fun!), and The Witches of Vardø by Anya Bergman (very curious about this one). Also, the new release Rewitched by Lucy Jane Wood is one I've heard good things about 👀✨
In The Company of Witches is excellent and then the sequel When The Crow’s Away is also excellent! Also checkout The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
I have a very chunky Anne Rice book on my tbr, I think it’s titled The Witching Hour. I’m also way into my dark academia time right now with even more of those to read over the next couple of months. I read Weyward last year and enjoyed it. And I loved both books Auralee Wallace wrote. And with a first name like hers, how could you go wrong. Love your sweater too🖤.
I loved The Once and Future Witches, is one of my favourite witchy books. Is different. I have a few from your list, read and to be read, but i need to start one i hunted for last year - The Observatory The Eighty-Ninth Witch by Dimitri Balcaen. Is a strange one for me, with a lofi playlist and illustrations and qr codes to be scanned for the playlist. Not for my age, but i think will be fun. It feels hard to find a really good one, something serious, and a little bit darker. I loved also The All Souls Trilogy and The Practical Magic series. I hope you will make one day a list for...Vampires. I always read in November only about vampires, and i can't find anything really good, only sweets 😀 I guess i grew up with Anne Rice's books and these days the writing style is very different.
Vill minnas att du nämnde "The House Witch" för ett tag sedan - jag började nyss på tredje boken i serien och tycker att de är jättemysiga! Would recommend att fortsätta med serien om du inte gjort det redan🙌🏻
Love the selection you shared. 🙂 Keeping up with the theme of the recommendations here, sharing following for consideration: - The Witches (starting with 'Equal Rites', followed by: 'Wyrd Sistsers', 'Witches Abroad', 'Lords and Ladies', 'Maskerade' and 'Carpe Jugulum') and Tiffany Aching (starting with 'The Wee Free Men', followed by: 'A Hat Full of Sky', 'Wintersmith', 'I Shall Wear Midnight' and 'The Shepherd's Crown') story arcs of Discworld books by Sir Terry Pratchett - 'Nocturnals' by Dan Brereton - 'Black Bird Oracle' by Deborah Harkness
I gave 4 ⭐️ to both Weyward & The Once & Future Witches. This year looking to read The Witches Of NY, A Secret History of Witches & A Discovery of Witches! October TBR is packed as usual.
The Once And Future Witches is great Alice. I have read others by that author and I sold her debut The Ten thousand doors of January because I wasn't going to re-read it but I kept The Once and Future Witches.
I just finished Once & Future Witches & it's so incredibly good... As someone who practices witchcraft, so many parts of the book feel accurate to what a Folk Magic practice can look like. 5⭐
Once and Future Witches is one of my favorite books of all time!!! I also loved the Shadow Cabinet. I just finished Queen B the prequel of the series which was also very good. I also highly recommend Weyward and Now she Is Witch! I would say they are more on the literary fiction/feminist fiction side with witches in them but they're not as fantasy heavy as some of the other ones on this list
Have you read The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw? It's superb! Looks like a fairly average YA mystery in the beginning, but don't let that fool you. It turns into something very different in the second half! Another witchy Ernshaw is Winterwood, a perfect cosy winter mystery with some action towards the end.
just finished the unfortunate side effects of heartbreak and magic - thoroughly enjoyed it, and the small town vibes are absolutely in there (recipes too!!)
Weyward was fabulous. I've read both of the Auralee Wallace books in this series and loved them. The aunts give a little big of the Practical Magic auntie vibe. Speaking of Practical Magic I've read the whole series and loved that as well. As for men inserting themselves, they've done so throughout history haven't they? In the states they are reverting backwards with "let us dictate what you can and can't do with your body" and on it goes.
Thank you so much for all the new recommendations. I needed some fresh books for my list, and you have provided many. I will say, however, I stay away from the witch trial books. They just infuriate me!
I really enjoyed Once and Future Witches... I hope it pays off for you too! Have you read The Crimson Moth (Heartless Hunter)? That's a fun but interesting witchy time.
Currently finishing the Winternight trilogy by Katherine Arden (the winter of the witch), awesome witchy trilogy! Also recommend Nettle and Bone featuring a silly gravewitch!
The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic is the next audiobook I'm going to listen to. I really want to read Weyword and Small Town, Big Magic as well.
I loved Once and Future Witches! And Cunning Women. Westward should be #1 on your list, at the very top. It’s so good. Read it in my book club and we all loved it.
Hi Alice, so I read "The Once and Future Witches" which I truly enjoyed, read it in october of 22 so season was set. Most of what you presented is on my far future TBR 😂
I love witch books, so thanks for this video! Here are a couple of my favorites if you feel like checking them out: *The Crucible, Miller *The Physick Book of Deliverence Dane, Howe *The Heretic's Daughter, Kent *The Lace Reader, Barry *The Little Giant of Aberdeen County, Baker Happy reading! 💚
It’s a good thing you don’t do drugs since you’ve “embraced the darkness!” 😂 Dark colors really suit your complexion! I’m adding “Now she is witch” to my tbr! 🍂🧙♀️🍁
The Dangerous Damsels series does bring back characters - it's a pretty big cast and honestly a bit confusing. I actually wish I had read the books closer together tbh. Weyward is witchy but just like you described, it's very nature connected and more realistic - not like, high fantasy magic stuff. I'm interested in trying The Last Witch in Edinburgh by Marielle Thompson this fall.
Reading the comments I’m in the minority that I didn’t like Weyward. I enjoyed it while I was reading it but I found the ending rushed and very disappointing. Highly recommend Once and Future Witches though. ❤
LOVE your top!! Wrote about 4 down...oh dear, but I ALWAYS say the same thing as you"I could be spending g it on drugs or alcohol, or gambling, plus,plus,plus. I haven't read either of these bks. because I am saving them for Fall, but they sound very good(why I bought them!😁). The Winter Witch by Paula Bracket on set in Wales and The Burning Of Bridget Cleary by Angela Bourke. I don't think this classifies as a true "witch book" but you may want to get it sometime. Set in Ireland a woman who was thought to have been left as a change long by fairies or evil spirits. Eight members of her family INCLUDING her husband were charged w/ burning g and burying her. I have been on the library list for OVER a month waiting for WEYWARD... must be good... Thanks Alice, you look gorgeous as usual 🤗
One of my fave books. The girl who drank the moon by:Kelly Barnhill It's kinda a fairy tail/ kids book/ bed time story / young readers - but please don't get it twisted this is a very complex wonderful book and not at all what you would expect. (Not sure I'd give this to a kid parts seam really dark) any way the same writer wrote another book called tge witch's boy. It's good but it's not like this. This one I'm recommending is my fave adult bedtime story. (The audio book reader is AWESOME!)
Who liked the video before even watching it just because of the title? 🙋
Me! 😊
Me too 🙋♀️
100%!!
All for it, there are never enough witch books, we want more!
Yep. Liked and subscribed too. Ha ha
Anyone else getting beautiful Ice Queen vibes from Alice today?
❄️👑🖤🥰
My favorite witch book in recent memory is Slewfoot by Brom. A nice dark antiheroine.
I literally just got myself a copy of that!! So excited to read it! 😍
I second this!!
I am so adopting this! From now on, every time I will feel bad for buying *more* books I will tell myself “ At least I’m not spending all of it on drugs!” 🤷🏼♀️😌
Books are my drugs😅
These witchy recommendations make me look forward to Autumn and the cosy season!!!
Yay! Me too! 🖤🍂
Yes! Some books are just meant for a particular season...I bet you would love the evocations of autumn in Sylvia Townsend Warner's VERY witchy novel Lolly Willowes. An oldie but a goodie!
just finished Weyward and I'm obsessed!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is so good 🥹
So happy to hear that! 😍
Weyward was one of my favourite books of last year! I loved it because it managed to do historical fiction x witches without being totally bleak and depressing.
Yay! 🥰🖤
Currently reading The Once and Future Witches (maybe 1/4 left or a little less) and It's one of my favorite reads of the year. The characters have so much depth to them; they're imperfect but also so loveable. The mix of women's rights and women's empowerment through magic is just perfect 👌 100% recommend 🍂🧙♀️
I just want to say your vibe in this video gives Morticia Adams finds Chilling adventures of Sabrina (after Season 2 when her hair got lighter)!🤩
Nothing makes me happier! 🖤😍
That's what I always say, I could be spending my money on worse things, and its not a waste to spend money on something will educate you, increase your vocabulary, and make you more empathetic.
The new T. kingfisher “A Sorceress Comes to Call” seems like it could make your list. She has a wonderful dark and humorous writing style. One of my new favorite authors 🖤
I’ve got it on my to-buy list! 😍 I love her books!
I would also recommend Threadneedle: a YA (but quite dark) about a secret coven of witches in a magical London, with themes of coming of age and female friendships ❤ One of my favourite books this year!
Oh that sounds amazing, thank you for sharing! 🖤 I’m adding that to my TBR!
The Once and Future Witches is a very good book, I definitely recommend it for the autumn season ❤
I’ve read the unfortunate side effects and I’ve read it 3 times and own it in hardback, kindle and audible 🖤🖤🖤 love it and it lives up to the hype 🎉🎉🎉
Amazing!! 😍
New sub here and I have to say you are stunning!! Been looking for some witchy books tbr. It’s always spooky 👻 season in my soul.
Thank you so much! 🥰 Welcome to the channel!
I re-read (audiobooks) Katherine Howe’s “The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane” and “The Daughter of Temperance Hobbs” every October for some historical fiction involving Salem witch trials and modern academia. And if you’re a fan of Stranger Things, “We ride upon sticks” by Quan Barry is a hilarious read mixing Salem witch trials and 1980s high school field hockey team that will tap into the dark side to keep winning.

I have to say I love your list, I have some of th same on my TBR list. That being said, I read A witch's guide to fake dating a Demon, and it is GREAT! Really funny as well, Mariel and Ozorth are great. I am currently keeing my eyes peeled for the 2nd one, A demons guide to wooing a witch.
Love to hear it!! 🥰❤️
Weyward is amazing. For a cosy, mystery small town witches I recommend The Whitehaven Witches series.
I haven’t heard of that series, thank you for sharing! 😍🖤
Grimoire girl by Hilarie Burton Morgan is so fun! I loved it 🧡
You look so witchy & Beautiful, Alice! Love the clothes & lipstick! 👄🖤great book recommendations! I’ve read a few,
Weyward 4/5; League of GW 3/5; In the company of witches 4/5; The unfortunate SE I DNF’d it which was so disappointing as it was so hyped.
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts 🗡️🪄

All of these covers are stunning!! Great list, I’ll be adding most to my TBR- thank you!! 🤍

I've read "In the Company of Witches" and "Small Town Big Magic" - they were both fun reads; not my favorites, but entertaining enough to keep you reading until the end. I have "The League of Gentlewomen Witches" and "Once and Future Witches" on my shelf, so thanks for the reminder that I need to get back to those this fall. Happy reading.
Awesome, thank you for sharing! 🖤 Happy reading!
The Mercies by Kiran Millwood Hargrave and The Witches of Vardø might just be right up your street, too. The Mercies is such an excellent read ☺️
Loved both of those!
Lovely TBR! I'm looking forward to your thoughts on a few of them. On my TBR for autumn, I have Magic Lessons by Alice Hoffman (can't wait), The Hex Ex by Erin Sterling (fun!), and The Witches of Vardø by Anya Bergman (very curious about this one). Also, the new release Rewitched by Lucy Jane Wood is one I've heard good things about 👀✨
Oooh you’ve got an amazing TBR! 😍 I’m also looking forward to Rewitched being released 🖤 It looks so good!
I love witchy books. I‘m currently reading The Honey Witch by Sydney Shields. 😊😊
Oooh I’ve seen the cover for that one, it looks so nice! 😍
Weyward was a favorite last year. Slewfoot is my top favorite right now.
In The Company of Witches is excellent and then the sequel When The Crow’s Away is also excellent!
Also checkout The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
Yay! I read Irregular Witches last year, really enjoyed it! 🥰🖤
I have a very chunky Anne Rice book on my tbr, I think it’s titled The Witching Hour. I’m also way into my dark academia time right now with even more of those to read over the next couple of months.

Love dark academia time 🖤🏛️
Love the witching hour. I like it more than interview with a vampire
Quite a few of these are on my TBR, read Weyward recently and LOVED it!
Happy to hear it!! 🥰😍
This is an intriguing list! I love a good witchy book! 🧙🏻♀️
Me too! 🥰🖤
Yes, The Mercies is terrific!

I loved Weyward. I have pre order her next book
Keep the witchy book recs coming please!
The once and future witches was one of my favorite books of the year! I even got my husband to read it ❤
Yaaay! That makes me even more excited to read it 😍😍

Love that! 😍🍂🎃
We love a witchy read!! I really enjoy a witchy book at this time of year

Once and Future Witches was excellent!
Im currently reading Venco. Which is about a Coven of Witches
I love your reasoning and justification for buying more books lol! I’ve got a couple of these on my list too and just added a few more. ☺️
😂🥰❤️
I also have the Weyward book to read also this coming fall along with other gothic type novels.
The Once And Future Witches is great Alice. I have read others by that author and I sold her debut The Ten thousand doors of January because I wasn't going to re-read it but I kept The Once and Future Witches.
Happy to hear that, excited to read it! 😍🖤
I can’t wait to read The Invocations by Krystal Sutherland it looks so good!
It’s one of the best books I’ve read this year! Hope you enjoy it.
Thank you for all of the witchy book recommendations!! ❤
The recommendations looks great but that lipstick looks even better 🥰
🥰🖤
😆 I frequently use that dru6s comparison to put my 📚 buying into a favorable perspective
That makes two of us 😂
I just finished Once & Future Witches & it's so incredibly good... As someone who practices witchcraft, so many parts of the book feel accurate to what a Folk Magic practice can look like. 5⭐
Love that! 🥰😍
Weyward was fantastic.
🥰🖤
Wayward is a really awesome book. Couldn’t put it down!
Weyward is excellent.
The covers of theses books!! I want to just have them all on display.
🥰🖤
Hi Alice
I have Weyward on my table that is next to me to read. I haven’t read this one yet. I want to.
Take Care & Happy Reading
❤️🤗🔰📖📒📚❤️
youve got to read Slewfoot!! so so good!
Yes, I really must!! 🥰🖤
Weyward was amazing!!! ❤ one of my top reads this year. 🎉
Amazing!! 🥰😍
Once and Future Witches is one of my favorite books of all time!!! I also loved the Shadow Cabinet. I just finished Queen B the prequel of the series which was also very good. I also highly recommend Weyward and Now she Is Witch! I would say they are more on the literary fiction/feminist fiction side with witches in them but they're not as fantasy heavy as some of the other ones on this list
Yay! That makes me even more excited to read it 🖤
What a nice video idea. 😊 I will definitely read some of these books.
I am currently listening to Weyward and I like it a lot!
Thank you! 🥰 Happy to hear you’re enjoying Weyward!
Weyward , I just finished that…it was fantastic and definitely about witches!
So happy to hear you liked it! 🥰
Have you read The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw? It's superb! Looks like a fairly average YA mystery in the beginning, but don't let that fool you. It turns into something very different in the second half! Another witchy Ernshaw is Winterwood, a perfect cosy winter mystery with some action towards the end.
I have yes, but I haven’t read Winterwood 🖤
@@TheBookCastle That's one for your winter Tbr then. 😊
just finished the unfortunate side effects of heartbreak and magic - thoroughly enjoyed it, and the small town vibes are absolutely in there (recipes too!!)
Yay, love to hear it! 🥰
Your style is just sooo top notch!
Thank you so much! 🖤😂🥰
Soooo appreciate the different titles on here. Also you can tell you don’t read much contemporary romance haha hope you enjoy those ones!
Weyward is one of the best books I’ve read, and I read a lot! BTW, you are so well spoken and obviously intelligent and you’re cute as an be!
I’m glad you liked it! 🥰 and gosh, thank you so much 🫣❤️
Weyward is the best book I read this year.
I really love your style. It suits you so well.
Oh thank you! 🥰
I am not ready for autumn yet but I am totally into these recs 😂. I have added some of these titles to my list. Ps- love the sleeves!
Yes,their are witches in Weyward,this my first 5 🌟
Yay! 🖤
Weyward was fabulous. I've read both of the Auralee Wallace books in this series and loved them. The aunts give a little big of the Practical Magic auntie vibe. Speaking of Practical Magic I've read the whole series and loved that as well. As for men inserting themselves, they've done so throughout history haven't they? In the states they are reverting backwards with "let us dictate what you can and can't do with your body" and on it goes.
So true 😭
I really liked the once and future witches. It's kind of long but worth it
I would LOVE reviews of all of this!!!! 🖤
I’ll try my best!! 😂🖤
I need some witch/cozy fall books for spooky season 🙌🏾
Once and future witches is inspiring. I got a hard copy after reading the audiobook. I reread it. I never do that. Its that good.
If anyone is looking for something abit like The Witch/Over The Garden Wall, please give In The House In The Dark Of The Woods by Laird Hunt a look!
Thank you so much for all the new recommendations. I needed some fresh books for my list, and you have provided many. I will say, however, I stay away from the witch trial books.
They just infuriate me!
I really enjoyed Once and Future Witches... I hope it pays off for you too! Have you read The Crimson Moth (Heartless Hunter)? That's a fun but interesting witchy time.
I'll check it out! 🥰
Currently finishing the Winternight trilogy by Katherine Arden (the winter of the witch), awesome witchy trilogy!
Also recommend Nettle and Bone featuring a silly gravewitch!
I love those books, they’re some of my favorites!! 😍🥰
BRB, adding all these books to my online cart! (Except for "Heartbreak and Magic," because I have that one and want to read it in September!)
🥰🖤
The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic is the next audiobook I'm going to listen to. I really want to read Weyword and Small Town, Big Magic as well.
I loved Once and Future Witches! And Cunning Women. Westward should be #1 on your list, at the very top. It’s so good. Read it in my book club and we all loved it.
Amazing! 🖤
Thank you Alice ! I love witches !!
🖤🥰
Hi Alice, so I read "The Once and Future Witches" which I truly enjoyed, read it in october of 22 so season was set. Most of what you presented is on my far future TBR 😂
I love witch books, so thanks for this video! Here are a couple of my favorites if you feel like checking them out:
*The Crucible, Miller
*The Physick Book of Deliverence Dane, Howe
*The Heretic's Daughter, Kent
*The Lace Reader, Barry
*The Little Giant of Aberdeen County, Baker
Happy reading! 💚
Oooh amazing, thank you for sharing! 🖤
New subbb❤ love all these recs I’m ready for fall 🎉
Yay, thank you! ❤️ Welcome!
Girl, my birthday's around the corner and I usually buy myself some birthday presents and this year... this year, I know what to buy for me :)
Happy birthday!! 🥰
@@TheBookCastle thank you so much ! 😍💙
Omg!!!! Love videos like this!!!
Weyward is sooooo good!!
It’s a good thing you don’t do drugs since you’ve “embraced the darkness!” 😂 Dark colors really suit your complexion! I’m adding “Now she is witch” to my tbr! 🍂🧙♀️🍁
Ahahaha this made me laugh! 😂 Thank you! 🖤
The Dangerous Damsels series does bring back characters - it's a pretty big cast and honestly a bit confusing. I actually wish I had read the books closer together tbh.
Weyward is witchy but just like you described, it's very nature connected and more realistic - not like, high fantasy magic stuff.
I'm interested in trying The Last Witch in Edinburgh by Marielle Thompson this fall.
What an amazing list. Thanks!! ❤
🥰🖤
Honey witch is on my list and I got a beautiful book from the library called witcha gonna do?
Reading the comments I’m in the minority that I didn’t like Weyward. I enjoyed it while I was reading it but I found the ending rushed and very disappointing. Highly recommend Once and Future Witches though. ❤
LOVE your top!! Wrote about 4 down...oh dear, but I ALWAYS say the same thing as you"I could be spending g it on drugs or alcohol, or gambling, plus,plus,plus.

Yep I've got The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo on my TBR
I'm gonna read it in October
Ooooh I really need to get a copy of that 👀
It's mostly historical fiction, there's very little magic in it. I think I gave it 3 stars.
@felina2014 oh no, I have this and was looking forward to it.
One of my fave books. The girl who drank the moon by:Kelly Barnhill
It's kinda a fairy tail/ kids book/ bed time story / young readers - but please don't get it twisted this is a very complex wonderful book and not at all what you would expect. (Not sure I'd give this to a kid parts seam really dark) any way the same writer wrote another book called tge witch's boy. It's good but it's not like this. This one I'm recommending is my fave adult bedtime story. (The audio book reader is AWESOME!)
😂 same on the drugs comparison! Loved this video, want them ALL now! ❤
Weyward is one book that intrigues me but I keep hearing mixed things about it so will wait and see what you think of it before I buy it 😊
Hopefully I’ll get to it soon! 🥰
I loved it.
