Recs if you like The Witches: Salem, 1692...

microhistory: the intensive historical investigation of a well defined smaller unit of research (such as an event, community, individual or a settlement); it aspires to "ask large questions in small places"

Here's every book so far from BOTM's monthly shortlist since February 2015 for anyone who wants to read them all like I do!

Historical, mythological and just general witchy reads. Credit to @tvcr4wler for their list burn the witch! where I got some of these. Suggestions welcome.

Books pertaining to the tragic events that took place in Salem, Massachusetts in 1692.

For those who want to learn a thing or two while they're acting out their dark academia dreams.

(read: dark and broody non-fiction that may or may not also be dense and/or academic)

a masterlist of non-fiction books (including memoirs) on Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. many of these are from my classes in university. however, I have not read all the books on this list, so some are included based on the summary, reviews, and of course your suggestions!

yeah it’s cliche but i do like a lot of these books. both books that fit the dark academia genre and books dark academics would read.

i’m creating my personal curriculum for the months of sep-dec 2026, and this time the topic is WITCHES🍂🕯️🌚🔮 starting off with some non fiction and plays pairings recommended by @bibliophel on instagram, i then added some of the other books i’m interested it
