The Rec League: Lazy Witches



The Rec League - heart shaped chocolate resting on the edge of a very old bookHi! This Rec League request is from me (Amanda) and I thought it was a good tie-in for Halloween.

I was thinking about how much I enjoyed Slouch Witch when we recently featured it on sale. I loved the flip of having a main character who felt mediocre in their magic or honestly was happy doing the bare minimum. It was a refreshing departure from the “chosen one” stories that I mainly see out there. 

So please give me more!

Sarah: I think there are a number of mediocre magic users in the Discworld series, but I’d need someone much more fluent in the books to help me figure out how many and which.

Elyse: Please stand by while I page Rich!

Sarah: I am unsure about this rec and wish I could ask Catherine, but the Celia Lake books are very quiet magic. Not lazy or disinterested, but not necessarily full of the most powerful people, either.

Elyse: He said any book featuring Rincewind applies.

Sarah: Yes! Possibly some of the witches in the Tiffany Aching series, but I’m happy my foggy, murky memory was on the right track.
