Happy Hump Day – it’s Top 5 Wednesday! As a reminder, Top 5 Wednesday is a weekly roundup of cool/fun bookish things that is hosted by Sam over at Thoughts on Tomes on YouTube. You can visit the Goodreads group for topics (and such, as Sam always says). I had a lot more trouble with this topic than I’d like to admit, because I love witches! But so many of the books are on my TBR, meaning I haven’t actually read them yet. Boo on me and my busy reviewing schedule. In any case, I came up with 5 plus one bonus and tada! Witches! Happy October, everyone!
Top 5 Books Featuring Witches
- Labyrinth Lost by Zoraida Córdova (technically, brujas, but they’re my faves, so I’m counting them)
- Harry Potter series by JK Rowling (of course)
- Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine
- His Dark Materials series by Philip Pullman
- MacBeth by William Shakespeare
Bonus/series I refuse to include in lists when I can help it because it’s so problematic: the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas (starting with Heir of Fire). Because Manon is bomb and I want her to have her own book/series?? SJM, can she get her own series??
What are some of your favorite books with witches as characters? I can’t wait to see other people’s lists!
Happy reading!
