Witch in the Lighthouse by Azalea Forrest has been out for awhile but it’s getting a new cover! There’s a reason for that too. It’s now the first book in The Witch of Emelle Series. And it’s getting an audiobook. Forrest has been secretly working on a ton of exciting things and I can’t wait for what’s coming.
For those who want more Ghibli vibes and cozy fantasy, this is a book (and series!) you don’t want to miss.

Blurb
Witch in the Lighthouse is a warm cup of tea full of magic, hope, friendship, and forgiveness.
Moving to Lightview was supposed to be a new beginning for Magnolia Hanna, a piece of closure, a connection to her past. Inheriting her uncle’s lighthouse wouldn’t make her life easy, but she never expected such hostile neighbors. She was a witch from the hidden mountain hamlet of Emelle, after all, and Lightview hadn’t housed a witch in more than a decade.
Unfriendly villagers are the least of her problems, however, when a witch named Basil Olivander arrives on her doorstep, weighed down by his own grief. Maggie soon learns why Lightview harbors such disdain for witches — and who is to blame for her troubles in this new town.
