It’s time to get her spark back . . .
Once, Sera Swan was one of the most powerful witches in Britain – until she sacrificed most of her magic to resurrect her beloved aunt. Now she runs an enchanted inn in Lancashire, where she deals with her quirky guests’ shenanigans and longs for a future that seems entirely lost.
Then she meets Luke Larsen, the handsome and icy magical historian who could hold the key to restoring her power. Luke has no interest in the inn’s goings-on or letting a certain witch past his walls, so no one is more surprised than he when he agrees to help. Worse, he might actually be thawing.
But as the two work together alongside the family Sera has built, she begins to wonder . . . could love be the best magic of all?
A witch has a second chance to get her magical powers – and her life back on track in this feel-good, whimsical New York Times bestselling cosy fantasy from the author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.

Reviews
This is very much a character driven story, with a wonderful storyteller in Mandanna behind the wheel, taking us on a gentle drive through a magical landscape
This whimsical tale is at once action-packed and extremely cozy
Utterly delightful! A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping is a cosy hug of a novel with the perfect amount of bite. Mandanna's characters never fail to capture my heart and this eclectic bunch of misfits were no exception (there's even a talking fox and a zombie chicken!). Truly the perfect book to curl up on the couch with

Sassy witch? Check. Cosy inn? Check. Intelligent and handsome love interest? Check. Immaculate vibes have officially been met. Now, that's not to say there aren't some deeply important messages and plotlines within the story. However, the gentle, comforting approach softens their edges

Warm, cozy, and eminently hopeful, A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping is the comfort read of the year, and an instant favorite
A cozy tale about the powerful alchemy of believing we are worthy of the family we find. Full of charm, wit, romance, and an affirmation that we are all deserving of love and real magic
An effervescent stunner
As cosy, fun and touching as I expected it would be. Mandanna has become an author who seamlessly delivers a hug in a book. A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping is a tale that will make you feel cosy, warm and comforted
Found family, a talking fox, a quaint inn in an English village - it's like this book was written just for me. Mandanna somehow writes existential crises like a warm hug
Magical in every sense, not just the spell-casting kind! Sangu Mandanna uses her signature whimsical writing to tell a story filled with love, heart, and hope, where every character is unapologetically themselves and good always triumphs. Without shying away from the tougher realities of life, Mandanna somehow captures the essence of everyday magic-the magic we find in the love of our friends and family
Much like its enchanted inn, A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping welcomes in the weary reader with gentle charm and profound kindness. This book is a magical, heartfelt tale that leaves you feeling just a little bit more whole
No other title represents the absolute best of this particular sub-genre like A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping, a peak cosy fantasy tale about a witch who lost her powers after resurrecting her great-aunt
