Char talks about “The House Witch”
Nothing is more cozy than sitting down to a warm homemade meal. That’s Something Finlay Ashowan knows to be true. In the stunning tale of “The House Witch” by Delemhach, you not only have a cozy fantasy but also have found family, a mystery, and friendship, All while revolving around the heart of every home. The Kitchen! The book’s cozy elements come from the warm, familial relationships, the comforting setting of the kitchen, and the delightful mystery that unfolds.
Finlay Ashowan is a witch trying to hide who he is while doing what he loves. The only problem is that he seems to be stirring the pot when he establishes his place in his kitchen. Soon, his antics have caught the notice of the King. Trying his hardest to keep his powers a secret, he finds that he isn’t as good at hiding them as he had thought. Slowly, people start to uncover his secret. Now, he finds his days defending the female population, fighting nights, saving the Queen’s unborn baby, and learning to dance with the Prince. Who would have thought that a lowly peasant could become something so interesting? Finlay sure didn’t. 
I find myself looking for cozy books this time of the year, and this has been in my sights for a while now, but I kept putting it aside so I could read it in the fall. It’s now fall, and I may have started my cozy reading early this year. From the very first page, I was struck with how entertaining this book would be. I am surprised by how unknown this book is because it should be trendy because of how well it’s written and how funny and cozy it is! I loved each character and how they interacted with each other. I want to live in this beautiful fantasy world. Fin is a solid main character whose antics are stunning and well-written. In some books, minor things get annoying and repetitive, but I wish for more moments in this book. I didn’t care when the story described the kitchen and Fin cooking. I couldn’t get enough of it, and I am so excited to start reading the next book in this trilogy!
