3 Wicked Good Books With Witches #WickedGoodReads

I love a good witch book. It’s classic and there are endless ways in which the plot and the characters can be portrayed. Here are three of my favorites…

A Discovery of Witches, Deborah Harkness

Deep in the stacks of Oxford’s Bodleian Library, young scholar Diana Bishop unwittingly calls up a bewitched alchemical manuscript in the course of her research. Descended from an old and distinguished line of witches, Diana wants nothing to do with sorcery; so after a furtive glance and a few notes, she banishes the book to the stacks. But her discovery sets a fantastical underworld stirring, and a horde of daemons, witches, and vampires soon descends upon the library.

If you love historical fiction paired with fantasy and/or paranormal elements, the All Souls Trilogy is for you.

Half Bad, Sally Green

Sixteen-year-old Nathan lives in a cage: beaten, shackled, trained to kill. In a modern-day England where two warring factions of witches live amongst humans, Nathan is an abomination, the illegitimate son of the world’s most terrifying and violent witch, Marcus. Nathan’s only hope for survival is to escape his captors, track down Marcus, and receive the three gifts that will bring him into his own magical powers—before it’s too late.

I cannot tell you how much I loved the Half Bad series. These books are awesome and unique. You’ll love the twists and turns.

Born at Midnight, C.C. Hunter

One night Kylie Galen finds herself at the wrong party, with the wrong people, and it changes her life forever. Her mother ships her off to Shadow Falls—a camp for troubled teens, and within hours of arriving, it becomes painfully clear that her fellow campers aren’t just “troubled.” Here at Shadow Falls, vampires, werewolves, shapeshifters, witches and fairies train side by side—learning to harness their powers, control their magic and live in the normal world.

Summer camp for witches, vampires, and other supernatural beings and it turns out to be a crazy adventure.
