A witchy romance, with the focus in magic and emotions. Sage is hurting, a witch from her teens she used her magic and it all went wrong when she was younger and now hides it and pushes all tingles away. She works with her best friend who irritates her, as well as cares for her in equal measure - well perhaps more irritation! The magic creeps into the book, and the village, and slowly and then quickly takes over as houses become gingerbread houses, friends become princes and a bean stalk grows. As fairy tales take over, Sage has to decide if she will once more embrace her magic and her past hurts.

This is a cosy, whimsical story about Sage who is a witch who doesn't want to use her powers and finds her town trapped in various fairy tale stories.

I thought the premise for this book was a lot of fun, I really liked all the fairy tale elements and Sage was a great main character. I also really enjoyed her relationship with Cas and them working together to undo the curse. I would've liked a bit more from Sage's siblings, they were interesting side characters and it would've been nice to see them further developed.

Overall I loved this addition to the series, and would highly recommend as a cosy, autumnal read. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an e-arc of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

I have read and enjoyed other books by the author and Disenchanted certainly didn't disappoint. From the very first page I was hooked and I kept reading until the end as I wanted to know what happened. I enjoyed the story and I loved following the characters on their journeys through the story. Overall a brilliant novel that I highly recommend to other readers.
💝 Thank you to the author, publisher and Netgalley for my arc ebook copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

I just love the writing style of Lucy Jane Wood. It's whimsy, so cozy, magic and romantic in a way. It's like a cozy romantasy, with a pinch of magic and a whole lot of wholesome

Book 1 in this series: a winner. Book 2 in this series: a winner. Book 3 in this series (this one): you guessed it, a winner.

I slip into these books so easily and each one brings its own special element. Sage is in rebuttal against her magic and she is eager for it to not only be strictly controlled, but she wants it gone. She hates the unpredictability and lives in fear of loosing control and causing harm. She’s determined and an easy character to get behind.

That and with the romance element with Cal, I was well invested and loved the magical fairytale spin running throughout.

Fantasy, magic and romance. All of my favourites wrapped up in a cosy little book.

Where do I even start with Disenchanted? ✨🖤

Lucy Jane Wood has such a magical way of writing, and I was completely pulled into this world from the very beginning. It had the perfect mix of cosy magic, mystery, found family, and just enough emotion to keep me completely hooked.

The characters felt so real, and I loved watching everything unfold. There were moments that made me smile, moments that broke my heart a little, and plenty of moments where I just needed to know what was going to happen next.

This felt different from the fantasy books I usually pick up, and honestly, I loved that. It was enchanting, comforting, and quietly powerful all at the same time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was everything I wanted from a cosy fantasy and more.

From the moment I started reading, I was completely charmed by the magical small-town setting, the quirky characters and the fairy tale twists woven throughout the story. It felt cosy and whimsical, but underneath it all was a heartfelt story about grief, healing and finally accepting who you are.

Sage was such an easy character to root for. She wants nothing to do with magic after everything it’s taken from her, so watching her slowly embrace the very thing she’s spent years trying to escape was such a rewarding journey. She felt real, relatable and wonderfully imperfect.

And Casimir? I adored him. The slow-burn romance was so sweet, full of longing, quiet moments and undeniable chemistry that had me smiling the whole way through. Their relationship developed so naturally, making every moment between them even more satisfying.

The magical chaos was so much fun. Fairy tales spilling into the real world, a giant beanstalk appearing in the garden, curses, ancient books and talking about happily-ever-afters in a completely fresh way made this impossible to put down. Every chapter had something new to discover, and I loved how the mystery unfolded alongside the romance.

If you’re looking for a cosy fantasy with witches, fairy tale magic, found family, a lovable cat, a gorgeous slow-burn romance and a story that leaves you feeling warm long after you’ve finished, this is one you absolutely need to pick up.

I closed this book with the biggest smile on my face and already wish I could experience its magic for the first time all over again.

Disenchanted is the charming story of Sage, a witch determined to keep a lid on her mischievous magic, until it starts to spiral out of control. Sage finds a way to love herself and her magic, supported by a host of charming characters and a heroic love interest. A beautifully witchy magical read, thoroughly enjoyable!

God this book was everything I wanted it to be and more! I adore this series anything Lucy writes is golden. I ate this book up so quickly and dropped all my plans to snuggle up with this read. I can't get enough of this beautiful witchy world, this one felt like fairytale shrek vibes but make it witchy! I will be raving about this book on my instagram page when release date approaches! A delight from beginning to end.

Lucy has done it again.
Her books just always feel like a warm hug and I love love love reading them.
Fantastic characters and a really engaging story and writing style. Lucy has now made it to the auto buy author list

In recent years, I have enjoyed many wonderful cozy fantasy novels and amongst the best of these have been Rewitchedabd Uncharmed by Lucy Jane Wood. The third novel in this Selcouth series is Disenchanted. Now, while all novels are set in the same universe, each can be treated as a standalone- though I would recommend reading all three for the pure enjoyment of the storylines.
Disenchanted is the tale of Sage Hemlock (a delightfully witchy name), a witch who is decidely disenchanted with the very notion of being a witch and trying to deny her powers. However, life goes a bit awry and suddenly fairy tales are coming to life in her home town. Now, I always thought that living in a fairy tale would be idyllic. Unfortunately this proves not to be the case for Sage and soon she is battling to save the lives of her friends and the village.
Along with being a witchy story, there are plenty of comedic moments and of course, the slow-burn romance is great fun.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A little bit of magic, a lot of heart, and the cosiest fantasy hug of a book. 🍂📚☕

Lucy Jane Wood has created another enchanting story that is perfect for anyone who loves cosy fantasy, found family, autumn vibes, and a sprinkle of fairy-tale magic.

Sage Hemlock has spent years trying to escape her witchy side, choosing quiet days with her cat, her books, and her work at the local museum instead. But when a mysterious book unleashes a curse, Sage’s peaceful life is turned upside down—and suddenly fairy tales are becoming reality! ✨

I loved Sage’s journey of learning to accept herself and the magic she has always tried to hide. Watching her rediscover her confidence, embrace who she is, and realise that she doesn’t need to change to be worthy of love was truly beautiful.

The atmosphere in this book was everything! 🧡 From the small-town setting and magical mishaps to the charming characters and cosy moments, it felt like stepping into a warm autumn evening with a hot chocolate and a good book.

The romance was sweet, the humour was delightful, and the fairy-tale twists made this such a fun and comforting read. I especially loved the message that sometimes your happily ever after begins when you stop running from yourself.

Perfect for fans of:
🍂 Cosy fantasy
🧙‍♀️ Witches & magic
🐈 Magical companions
📚 Bookish settings
✨ Fairy-tale vibes
☕ Autumn comfort reads

A truly magical addition to the series and one I’ll be recommending to anyone who wants a little more enchantment in their reading life. 💕

Lucy Jane Wood delivers again with a cosy fantasy about modern witches, this time with a fun fairytale twist!

I will not lie, I didn’t love the main character in this one, but I also didn’t dislike her enough for it to detract from my enjoyment of the book. It was just enough for me to wonder exactly what the MMC sees in her, because a decade of pining for somebody so pessimistic and closed off is a long time. Their romance was still sweet though, and I was rooting for them by the end.

You don’t really see characters from the previous books in this one, so if you picked it up as a standalone you would do absolutely fine, which is GREAT because I forgot pretty much everything that happened in the first two books. I never felt lost, and it made returning to this world really easy.

It doesn’t scream autumn other than being set around Halloween, but it absolutely screams cosy, which is what I am here for. If you enjoy warm, witchy reads with a touch of fairytale magic, this is another lovely addition to Lucy Jane Wood’s growing collection.

Thank you to NetGalley and Pan Macmillan for the eARC.

Another fantastic magical trip into the Selcouth Covern.

Lucy Jane Wood has outdone herself with book 3. I really loved the subtle nods to the previous 2 books which nicely tied them together

The use of fairytales to tell Sages story and guide her adventures through out the book were absolutely brilliant and thoroughly enjoyable. The perfect mix of light and dark moment throughout the novel which kept me wanting to read more.

It was still a cosy witchy autumn read but the added darkness from the villain added a lot of dimension.

I very much hope that we get many more Selcouth books in the future.

I loved it!
I really felt for Sage and the embarrassing situations her magic got her into but having Cas right there by her side throughout was the perfect balance.

Their chemistry was so sweet and everything you'd hoped it would be and more!

Definitely worth the wait 🤭

This book was exactly what I needed to read, after being in a bit of a slump this book has brought me back out of it 🥰
-cosy fantasy
-reluctant witch
-feel good
-friends to lovers
-close family
-fairytale setting

I could not put this down and picked it up when ever I could!
Fantasy, romance and a cosy magical setting! What more could you want from a book?
I loved the relationships between everyone and especially loved mal the cheeky cat 🐈 Sage did get a little bit frustrating at times but you can understand how she was feeling and why she was a bit closed off. Cas was perfect, cheeky and I loved the banter and communication between him and sage.
This book was perfect, I didn’t want it to end and I could have quite happily carried on reading.

Thank you to the author and publisher for this book on Netgalley in return for my honest review
