Okay, so I am not usually one to read non-fiction books for fun. Honestly, I think this may be one of the first in a long time. But this one was really interesting.

If you know me, you will know I love history of witches. I just find it heartbreaking and interesting and I want to know all I can about it. This book is right up my alley. It explores not only the Salem witch trials of 1692, but also what led to those false accusations. It was fascinating.

I loved getting an in depth historical look at the New England coast and their various trials, not just in Salem. I would consider myself a fan of the witch trials. This book, I believe, is pushing me on the road to becoming a scholar. I want to find more and more about them. (Possibly even putting together my own research? Who knows.)

If you want a very well written and accessible history of the Salem Witch Trials, look no further than Stacy Schiff's book. Honestly, take a look.

This is a short but steamy coffee break book that tells the story of Gemma, the witch. She doesn't have much of a social life (being a witch) so every year she bespells a pumpkin man to do all the chores she hates. As a perk to herself, she also asks him to make love to her each year. However, one year a wolf shows up and the tale takes on a new twist.

Although this is only a short story, it covers a year of time. Well-written and with enough of a story to make it enjoyable, this has humour, passion and loneliness. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Darker but intriquing
Totally different take on much loved characters from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Strangely enough, this version seems more realistic to me than the original. Plus it addresses issues that have developed since the first "nice" version. Love it so far. Sometimes the acting is not so great and the lighting can be dark which, while fitting, does make it hard to see what's going on.

This was a series that was a spin off of vampire diaries but I feel was so much better. I love the way it ended but not that it ended. This follows the story of the original vampire family and how they became so cruel,also how in a way how they became good again. Thought a little mirical baby names hope, and how in the end why she became an orphan. If you love a good witch, vampire, werewolf fued this is just a must see.

<b><i>I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.</i></b>
Chupeco’s latest novel follows Tea as she first discovers her abilities as a bone witch and undergoes an apprenticeship, and years later as an adult. Secretly I am in love with The Young Elites by Marie Lu because Adelina is a villain and The Bone Witch is honestly similar because Tea is basically a villain.

It is a slow book. There are lots of descriptions and world-building, but the book definitely picks up a notch later.
