Hauntology is the philosophical concept, as quoted by Mark Fisher from his article taking a deeper look into Derrida's philosophical work, that "the present is always haunted by the ghosts of the past and the unfulfilled promises of the future."

I’m insanely obsessed with Widow’s Bay and I want to read some books with similar vibes once the season is over, so I figured I’d make this list! The books listed are recommendations I’ve gathered from Instagram, Reddit, etc, but I’d love some more recommendations!

No matter the genre, here's a list of witches and the magic brought to the page (whether you love them or love to be scared of them). I tried to broaden the list to be all encompassing since I absolutely just love witchy things.

For the Fae and Flame Society book club, often our seasonal book bingo includes a square for 'a book set in a small town.' Here is a list of books set in small towns across a variety of genres to push us outside of our normal romantasy.
