October, the spookiest of all months. The time when fall is finally here and burnt orange is a completely acceptable color to wear in Oklahoma... The time of the year when us curlyheads* can finally relax. I was on the phone with my father this weekend and he described the air as having that fall smell. I was on my couch but I smelled it, almost tasted it... Ok, on to the point of this post. My favorite witchy books...
You will notice that I am a huge Paula Brackston fan! Her stories will pull you in from the very beginning. I could not get enough of this book and the sequel was just as enchanting.
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! I wanted to be Tegan so terribly bad. lol
Scandalouuuuuuus. That's all I have to say about that.
I have not read this yet but it will be next! Eek!
I wanted to scream at Morgana to use her words like a big girl... I fell in love with how much of a gentleman Cai Jenkins was and cheered for him the entire book. On the other hand, I cannot imagine being forced to marry a stranger. I'd raise hell for suuuuuure.
I envied Tilda and pitied her as well. I can't imagine losing my husband but I would have done exactly as she. I became her biggest fan when she saved her dog. Go Tilda!
One of my favorites so far! And PLOT TWIST! But I saw it coming. You will too. It was so easy to picture these characters, their home, the garden. I wanted to jump in and live magically ever after in Massachusetts.
I wanted to tell Elinor to get over herself. I wanted to tell Jenny to open her eyes. And Stella...I wanted to tell her to love her mother. Stella's gift gets them involved with a murderer. Her mom is in love with her uncle and Stella falls in love with a juvenile delinquent. It's all around entertaining.
I have somehow misplaced the first book of this trilogy (A Discovery of Witches). But I couldn't wait to read book after book. So the lion falls in love with the lamb....
I was reading this book until I left it at my in-laws home 6 HOURS AWAY! But so far it is fun and a great escape from the real world.
After I left my book in Oklahoma, I had to make my next choice. Bingo! It was meant to be because this book comes before "A Hat Full of Sky" in the Discworld Series!!! YAY. Now I understand so much more about this little blue guys.
Have you ever hugged a book after you've finished it? lol Well, we were on a plane to Seattle when I did just that. Gina looked at me like I was a lunatic but hey! I absolutely loved it and I'm pretty sure I found it at Dollar General for $3. Double whammy.
If you've ever been to Salem, you'll understand the seriousness that lingers in the air along with the history and fun you experience around Halloween. This is definitely a book you'll want to read more than once.
I hope whoever is reading this gets a chance to read at least one of these books. Then we can be weirdos and talk about it! Yay!
*Curlyheads are people with curly hair. Duh. It's our time to shine! Creep it real.
Love, Syd.
