<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
My entire life, I\u2019ve dreamt of being a witch. I cursed my family for not being more like the Russos from Wizards of Waverly Place<\/em> and dreamt of opening the mailbox to find my Hogwarts acceptance letter. It didn\u2019t matter how many horror stories I heard in history class<\/a> about what they actually did to women they thought were witches\u2014I was ready to take on the risks. <\/p>\n While I\u2019ve since grown out of my witchy childhood aspirations, my yearning to cast spells, walk around with a cute black cat, and hop on a broomstick has never left. Thankfully, while I wait for my powers to kick in, I can immerse myself in the fantasy worlds<\/a> I crave.<\/p>\n These books are witchy, romantic<\/a>, magical, and hilarious, and they all feature a strong female character<\/a> who is more than likely going to save someone from destruction. No matter which of these books you pick up first, you\u2019re going to get lost in the pages. Channel your inner witch<\/a> and add these 17 witchy books to your TBR this fall.<\/p>\n From the author of Practical Magic<\/em>, Witches of Cambridge<\/em> follows two brilliant young women, Ava and Lauren, in 1950s Cambridge as they become immersed in a mysterious secret group of witches at Radcliffe known as the Lilith Society. As they learn more about their witchy legacy, Ava and Lauren form a close bond that is put to the test as they navigate their new power, friendship, and love.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Sera Swan used to be one of the most powerful witches in Britain. Then she resurrected her great-aunt Jasmine from the dead, lost most of her magic, befriended a semi-villainous talking fox, and was exiled from her Guild. Now she helps Jasmine run an enchanted inn in Lancashire, where she longs for the future that seems lost to her. But then she finds out about an old spell that could hold the key to restoring her power, and turns to one of the inn\u2019s handsome newcomers for help.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Balancing work at her beloved London bookshop, Lunar Books, with handling her toxic boss and concealing her witchcraft from those around her, Belle is burnt out. Perfecting the potential of her magic is the last thing on her mind. But when her 30th birthday summons a trial that will test her worthiness as a witch, Belle risks losing her magic forever\u2014and she will need all the help she can get.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Rainy March is a proud, third-generation Book Witch, sworn to defend works of fiction from all foes real and imaginary. Book Witches live by a strict code: Real people belong in the real world; fictional characters belong in works of fiction. And falling in love with a fictional character? Don\u2019t even think about it\u2014which is why Rainy has been forbidden from seeing the Duke of Chicago. But when a priceless book is stolen, there\u2019s only one person she trusts to help her find it: the Duke.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Descended from an old and distinguished line of witches, young scholar Diana wants nothing to do with sorcery. So when she unknowingly calls up a bewitched alchemical manuscript in Oxford’s library, she takes a few notes and tosses it aside. But her discovery sets a fantastical underworld stirring, and a horde of daemons, witches, and vampires soon descends upon the library. The book contains a coveted treasure lost for centuries, and she is the only creature who can break its spell.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Told through three perspectives, Weyward<\/em> follows Kate, Altha, and Violet. Kate is fleeing her toxic relationship and life in London to stay in Weyward Cottage, a property she inherited from a long-lost aunt. Altha is on trial for murdering a local farmer and is accused of using witchcraft. Violet is trapped in her family estate throughout World War II after losing her mother, and the only thing left of her is a locket inscribed with the word \u201cWeyward.\u201d Throughout the pages of Weyward, <\/em>we witness the magical connection of their stories.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Aria can\u2019t get her magic to work right, so she decides it’s best just not to use it at all. She won’t even let herself use magic to enter a competition to win a huge fortune or to compete with her hot nemesis, Callan Hawthorne. In an unsurprising yet hilariously fitting turn of events, Aria ends up in that exact situation: using magic to win a competition so she can save her family\u2019s magic shop. And in the midst of the competition, she ends up falling for the one person she swore she never would.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Sadie Revelare has magic powers, but in exchange for her powers, she\u2019s been cursed with four heartbreaks. Her first heartbreak, Jake, returns to town at the same time her grandmother is given only a few weeks to live. On top of that, her estranged twin brother comes back to town and brings a lot of family drama with him. Everything was once going so right for Sadie, and now she must face the last of her heartbreaks\u2014will it be losing magic or losing love?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n The Lies We Conjure<\/em> is described as \u201cKnives Out<\/em> meets The Inheritance Games<\/em> with magic.\u201d Sisters Ruby and Wren are normal teenagers working summer jobs to save up for college. One day, an eccentric older woman asks them to impersonate her grandchildren at a fancy party in exchange for $2,000 each. Of course, they say yes, but when they get there, they realize the night is not at all what they\u2019ve agreed to. It seems they\u2019ve ended up locked in a mansion in a real-life murder mystery, surrounded by 13 witches.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Kiela is the librarian at The Great Library of Alyssium where she protects all of the spellbooks to preserve magic for the city. When the library is burned to the ground, she takes all of the spellbooks she can carry and flees to the remote island where she grew up. There, Kiela uses forbidden spells to open the island’s first secret spellshop. On top of her new business venture, her nosy yet handsome neighbor checks in on her every day. Kiela is happy settling into her new home\u2014but will her neighbor find out that she’s been using dark magic?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n After a devastating revolution, witches have been diminished from rulers to outcasts. To the public, she\u2019s a socialite, but Rune must keep her true identity a secret. At night, she\u2019s the Crimson Moth, a witch vigilante who rescues other witches from being killed. When a rescue goes wrong, she decides to throw the witch hunters off her scent and court Gideon Sharpe to gain intel. As someone loyal to the revolution, Gideon hates everything Rune stands for. He decides to fake court her right back, and they soon realize they\u2019re falling for one another.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Unexplainable occurrences at Wicked Good Apples farm have led to whispering locals, but only Holly and her family know the truth: the Celestes are a little wicked.

When a charming paranormal investigator requests to film an episode of his popular TV show on the mysterious farm, Holly reluctantly accepts. As he gets closer to uncovering the truth of Holly\u2019s home, his and Holly’s blooming romance begins to threaten everything they both value.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n In 1893, there’s no such thing as witches. There used to be, before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the Eastwood sisters join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to find ways to turn the women’s movement into the witch’s movement. The sisters will need to delve into the oldest magics, draw new alliances, and heal the bond between them if they want to survive.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n When Annie Wildwood’s coven tasks her with helping an orphan teenage witch get her magical powers under control, Annie is excited for the chance to please them. But the cabin they\u2019ll be housed in isn\u2019t quite the staycation of Annie\u2019s dreams\u2014and she and Maeve couldn\u2019t be more different. Just when they\u2019re starting to understand each other, the owner of the cabin unexpectedly returns\u2014and the handsome warlock is not pleased to find that the coven volunteered his house.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n In 1646, Thomas and Margaret Jones arrive in Massachusetts Bay Colony to build a life in the New World. Cautious Thomas and fiery Margaret, a healer, are bound by a love that has lasted decades. With a child on the way, their new beginning promises only blessings.

Then Fern meets a librarian who gives her a book about witchcraft, and power is in the hands of the girls for the first time in their lives. But there\u2019s always a price for power\u2026and it\u2019s usually paid in blood.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Darcy Keller loves Fableview\u2019s fall festivities.
