These books cast a spell on me! A list of books that I have read (and enjoyed) with Witchy, Magical, Fantasy themes.
I really enjoyed this adventurous tale of a young witch beginning her training with her new coven; all while navigating complex friendships and trying to solve a mystery of a magical blight.

The first book of the Tiffany Aching series within the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. A must-read, along with the other books about Tiffany Aching and her adventures.

White Is for Witching
Native American cultural fantasy adventure with a twist on ghosts and necromancy from an indigenous perspective. I love this book so much!
