Witch Week
Witch Week | Diana Wynne Jones
There are good witches and bad witches, but the law says that all witches must be burned at the stake. So when an anonymous note warns, "Someone in this class is a witch," the students in 6B are nervousespecially the boy who's just discovered that he can cast spells and the girl who was named after the most famous witch of all. Witch Week features the debonair enchanter Chrestomanci, who also appears in Charmed Life, The Magicians of Caprona, and The Lives of Christopber Chant. Someone in the class is a witch. At least so the anonymous note says. Everyone is only too eager to prove it is someone elsebecause in this society, witches are burned at the stake.

Jones creates a school full of loveable and hateable students and tells this story in an interesting manner. I liked it a lot better now rereading it with my husband, but didn't care for this when I first read it as a teen. It's an interesting entry in the Chresomanci series. #Witches #Magic

I enjoyed this but it has a very different feel than the first three I read. The story is set in an alternate world where magic is illegal unlike the other worlds where it is openly practiced. I found this installment was slow to start and only got really interesting once the magic started showing up.

Late night reading with my girl Sierra. This story has a different feel from the previous in the series so I‘m wondering what will happen next. #CatsOfLitsy

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @laurenduke300, Bubbles won my heart in the episode where she went HARDCORE when she got tired of being underestimated because she was ‘sweet‘ - 😂! Buttercup is pretty excellent as well! 5y

You never quite know what is going to turn up when you buy books via eBay, but I was quite happy with this retired school book, first edition of #WitchWeek by Diana Wynne Jones

✨ Favourite Title for #RiotGrams

Continuing with what *I think* is Book 3 of Diana Wynne Jones's Chrestomanci series.(It might be Book 4. It's not quite clear...) But this one is just right for the season!

Yes, now I am being obnoxious and just showing off more of my various copies/covers for Witch Week. But can you blame me? Only awesome books can inspire so many amazing covers!

A school for witch orphans. Where magic is strictly forbidden. And yet magic keeps popping up. Time for a visit from the always well dressed and enigmatic Chrestomanci!

Obviously, someone in this class is a witch because people on the covers fly on brooms! Of course it's not that cut & dry in this fun Chrestomanci novel.
