Hi everyone, my name is Shelby and you're watching Read and Find Out. So today I'm
gonna do another top 5 Wednesday. Top 5 Wednesday is moderated by Sam from
Thoughts on Tomes. There's a Goodreads
group and everything with topics and
I'll link it down below. You probably
noticed that I have a wand, or it could
just look like a stick to you. But
actually my husband David whittled me
some wands a couple years ago. We weren't married then but he was going with my
whole like magic loving fantasy thing. And it fits this week's topic because
this week is books featuring witches. So
this week number 5 is gonna be the Wheel
of Time series by Robert Jordan and
completed by Brandon Sanderson. This is
number 5 because Aes Sedai aren't
actually witches, but they're referred to
frequently as being witches throughout
this book. Like out of all the orders and
groups of people in all the books that
I've read, Aes Sedai are the ones that I,
yeah, they're my people. And I think I'd
be in the Brown Ajag. Number four is gonna be
the Chronicles of Narnia by CS Lewis,
specifically The Lion, the Witch, and the
Wardrobe, which I actually don't own a
copy of. At some point when we have a
house and I can have a huge library I
would like to remedy that. I don't
necessarily like the witch in that but
it's still one of my favorite books that
I read in childhood so I wanted to
include it. Number three is a more recent
read and that's Uprooted by Naomi Novik.
I've talked about this one pretty
frequently because I enjoyed it more
than I anticipated,
and it's absolutely beautiful. The
writing and the actual cover are gorgeous.
Number two is going to be the
Inheritance Cycle, or Eragon, by
Christopher Paolini. This is my extremely
dilapidated mass-market copy of the
first book in the quartet. This used to
be one of my favorite series as a
teenager. It's not now but when I look
back on it it has one of my favorite
witches that I remember, and it's Angela
who isn't necessarily a main character
even. But I just really liked her so I
thought this just needed to make it onto
the list. And the number one is
really obvious, but there wasn't a
disclaimer on this week's topic saying
we couldn't use this so I'm going with
Harry Potter, because it's Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Hermione's on the cover of this book. And
it's one of my very favorite series of
all time, probably coming in around
number two. So good. This is also my Harry
Potter book that's in the worst
condition, but I wanted to have one that
had an actual witch on the cover. So
there you have it, these are my favorite
books featuring witches. But witches
don't necessarily have to be a main
character or anything, but there are
witches present in the story. Comment
down below and let me know what some of your favorite books that feature witches
are. I hope you enjoyed this video. If you
