Grand and cavernous with hidden passages and buried secrets, it’s been home to four generations of Silver women—Anna, Jennifer, Lily, and now Miranda, who has lived in the house with her twin brother, Eliot, ever since their father converted it to a bed-and-breakfast. **The Silver women have always had a strong connection, a pull over one another that reaches across time and space, and when Lily, Miranda’s mother, passes away suddenly while on a trip abroad, Miranda begins suffering strange ailments.** An eating disorder starves her. She begins hearing voices. When she brings a friend home, Dover’s hostility toward outsiders physically manifests within the four walls of the Silver house, and the lives of everyone inside are irrevocably changed. **At once an unforgettable mystery and a meditation on race, nationality, and family legacies, _White is for Witching_ is a boldly original, terrifying, and elegant novel by a prodigious talent.** Show more Get the Bindery app * * * Posts about this title from Boundless Press [Boundless Press\\ \\ Jananie\\ \\ • Sep 28 2025](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/) [the ultimate guide to fall book recs 🍂 30+ autumn books you need to read](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/item/0Nz7qa34y9GwgOYS9pXk/) let me know what books you'd recommend for the fall! * * * 34 books 15 [1](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/item/0Nz7qa34y9GwgOYS9pXk/#comments) [Boundless Press\\ \\ Jananie\\ \\ • Sep 11 2024](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/) [🍂☕️ 40+ fall book recommendations 🎃👻 autumn books, vampires, haunted house, dark academia, witchy](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/item/6W8xpYLfuzrKdvJl39iE/) Let me know your favourite fall books! 🍂 * * * 37 books Posts about this book from across Bindery [Boundless Press\\ \\ Jananie\\ \\ • Sep 28 2025](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/) [the ultimate guide to fall book recs 🍂 30+ autumn books you need to read](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/item/0Nz7qa34y9GwgOYS9pXk/) let me know what books you'd recommend for the fall! * * * 34 books 15 [1](https://boundless.binderybooks.com/item/0Nz7qa34y9GwgOYS9pXk/#comments) [Not So Well Read\\ \\ Courtney\\ \\ • Jul 3 2025](https://notsowellread.binderybooks.com/) Join for free [Under-the-Radar Sapphic Books](https://notsowellread.binderybooks.com/item/764rtUhWXER0x7ugXqq7/) There are so many incredible queer and sapphic books out there and I feel like the internet only scratches the surface.
