As a 37 year old, mother of 2 who really felt like she had to rediscover herself in 2023, this literally made me cry.. Lucy deserves to sell loads and loads with this line alone. I hope she has it on the cover somewhere.

Can you start in RUclips you had so much back at the beginning and then it seemed to change a little bit and now you’ve got your step back your star back in you can’t wait to buy the book I’ll have to get my phone to read it because I’m a blind person but I’m looking forward to it. Congratulations It’s a big achievement. Well done you❤🤗🥂🍾
I would love to know the process with writing, finding someone to publish it, when/how you realized you wanted to do the original publishing route, making a plot, designing characters, and things like that. I cant wait to read this book!!!🤩
Yes, that would be such an interesting watch, I'd also love to see that. I also can't wait to read it! Huge congrats Lucy, you * should * be proud of yourself, this is awesome! 😍
The way I GASPED when I saw that title. I’m sooooo happy for you! I found your channel back when you were making moon face girl pins, testing makeup, and trying not to fall backwards down a flight of stairs while you tried on clothes. It’s been so amazing to see you achieve your dreams and accomplish so much over the years, and I’m so so proud of you for writing and publishing your work and putting this out in the world. This is a really incredible accomplishment and I hope you know that you deserve this. I can’t wait to read it! ❤️❤️
My best friend (a fellow subscriber) and I are gonna be book clubbing this one for sure ✨ CONGRATULATIONS, LUCY!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you REVEL in this joyful, proud, sparkly feeling. You’ve worked so hard.
Writing AND publishing a book is definitely something to brag and boast about until the end of your days! 100% you have the right and you should brag about it because it's such an achievement!!!! Definitely adding this to my TBR! ☺️ Congratulations 🥳🥳🥳
Lucy, you’re an author!! Congratulations!! And of a dreamy witch book no less, ahh!! As a long term silent viewer I had to pop in here to share in your celebration. So, so happy for you!Running to preorder this immediately 🩷🧡
I've been following you since your flat days, precariously perching yourself on top of those stairs doing try ons. I've stayed because of who you are. I'm not the most bookish of people but I have never preordered a book so fast - or anything for that matter! You are so deserving of this success and we're all here rooting for you. Congratulations on making your dreams come true! Xxx
Oh lovely Lucy, when you cried, I cried with you. I can feel your pure joy through the screen and I'm so bloody happy for you. I will absolutely be preordering! Love from a fellow (nearly) 30 year old gal who has been with all things magical since childhood
Oh good lord, nearly broke my elderly 30 something hip running so fast to pre-order this. Congratulations Lucy! I'm so happy you're so happy, and proud you've allowed yourself to be proud! Cannot wait to read your labour of love, and meet the new friends you've written. After a shitty mundane day at work, this news has split my world weary face into the biggest grin. You're a beautiful magic tonic, for realsies. So much love. You did the damn thing lady 🎉
Edit: It seems like your book is not quite showing up to be able to order on most of the listed sites, but as soon as it is, I’ll for sure be ordering! Never clicked on a video so fast! I can’t wait to read your book! A two book deal is amazing, but not surprising. It’s always been obvious how good with words you are. Congratulations!! 💛
Congratulations Lucy! When you first started to hint out at this secret project I immediately thought "oh Lucy is publishing a book, I wonder what it's going to be about" and I'm thrilled that this story has everything I love about books 🙌🏻 Can't wait to grab it in September when it comes out! And in hardback format as well, what a treat for my book collection ❤
🎉🎉🎉CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉 Amazing news!! I have the utmost respect for someone who can write a book and go through the whole process of being published! So much work goes into the whole thing, so massive Congratulations to you! You must be so proud 🤗 I have just pre-ordered, I think this story will be right up my street.. I am going to buy a big box of Chocs, get a pumpkin Spiced latte and sink into my favourite chair in Autumn, cannot wait.. Yay xx Awwww have an amazing year! Big hugs & magical sparkles 🤗✨✨✨✨
Lucy - you can say it - you’re an author! You’re a bloody author!! Go shout it from the rooftops! Shout it down the street! Pre-ordered and cannot wait for this little package of autumnal, witchy goodness to land on my doorstep 🧙🏻♀️
I’m crying happy tears along with you! I’m so excited for you and so proud of you! You did IT!! The story sounds so amazing. I can’t wait to meet Belle and all her friends and foes alike. All your hard work and dedication has paid off even bigger this time! All the love, happiness, and joy to you my friend. There’s no one more deserving. YAYYYYY LUCY!!!!! 🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉😳🤩😁💛🖤💛
Congratulation Lucy !!! This is so big and well deserved !! I've been watching you for years now and this feels like it's my big sister archiving a life goal. I cannot wait to read it
I’m so proud of you Lucy!!! I’ve loved hearing you give book synopses over the years but to hear you give YOUR OWN?! I can’t wait! It sounds so fun! Also how can we preorder in the US?
Honestly I've never smiled and filled up with tears as much as I Have watching this video. Been a silent viewer for such a longtime but your videos bring me joy. How articulate and funny you are really deserves this opportunity and I hope this helps boost your confidence because your so deserving. One copy pre ordered ❤
sitting at my silly little work desk at my silly little day job tearing up over this incredible, incredible news. lucy, there are few as warm, as endearing, as deserving. i had the strongest suspicion this was coming, and still nothing could've prepared me for getting to witness the joy and pride radiating from you while sharing this most precious thing with all of us. it sounds exactly like the story you were made to tell-and exactly the story i need to hear, exactly now. how kismet, how magical 🥹 i am so thrilled for you, and i am racing to pre-order this very moment 💚
Amazing!!!! Congratulations 🎉 Would be lovely to see you in an Illumicrate/afterlight book box (or do a special edition with them) one day! As I think this could be their/your vibe 💕
Wow wow wow!!!! Massive congratulations!!!! You absolutely should be celebrating such a great achievement & dream of yours. So happy to be able to support you, already pre-ordered the book & cannot WAIT to read it!!! A book that sounds totally up my street. X
Congrats Lucy!! This is so exciting and lovely. I will be buying the book. I also just wanted to thank you for sharing this general message. I’m 32 and have been working on an album since 2020, and it has been clawing away at my soul that I haven’t finished it and released it yet. Part of me keeps thinking “you’re getting too old and this is cringe” which is obviously a silly idea, but I appreciate you hitting on this theme with your story. I know what that dormant magic feels like, and I can see that you do too. Can’t wait to read it. 🪄
Thank you so much! PLEASE GO FOR IT. Someone might 'cringe', but that's on them - it probably means it's something they're keeping hidden themselves or have been taught to be embarrassed of, so it hurts them to see someone else doing it proudly and shining. Nothing about following your dreams is embarrassing ❤️
Nobody deserves this more than you! Of course, someone with such magic in their eyes and who so effortlessly brings comfort to thousands of people through a camera, would write a book filled with magic and comfort. Can’t wait to read it Lucy, congratulations xx
my god I don’t think I’ve ever cried at a book announcement before but i shed a happy tear or two at this one 😅 as a long time subscriber (been here since the jeans try-on days lol), I’m so incredibly proud and so excited for you! Rewitched sounds like a story that’s going to stick with me just like this channel has and I cannot wait to read it 💗 P.S. from a girl who also struggles to let herself be proud of her achievements, I hope you manage to let yourself bask in that feeling at least a little bit. you deserve it 🥰
I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to reach through the screen so much as when you teared up 🥹 you can see the pride bursting from you (rightly so!) cannot wait to read this! Congratulations 🎉❤
So excited to read this! Also yay for having older MCs! I'm crossing my fingers pre-orders for Canada will be available soon. I know Chapters/Indigo is always slow to pick up but def pre-ordering as soon as I can. I'd love to hear more about the whole journey of getting published and working through all that the bumps and stuff. One day I'd love to get published too so I love hearing about people's journeys in the publishing world.
I'm not a fantasy girlie, but you can BEST BET I will be reading this. It sounds right up my street with the perfect mix of real life and fantasy for my liking. Can't wait to read it, congratulations ❤
seeing your instagram post was one thing but hearing you say out loud that your dream came true had me crying out of happiness for you! we all can't wait to read
I don't think I've ever been more excited for someone I don't know in person. I just know this is going to be the most cosy, wonderful read of the year. Congratulations Lucy 🎉
Lucyyyyyyyyy! LJW AUTHOR!! This is so amazing there are literally no words. Congratulations my heart is so happy for you! Pre-order for you for sure. Enjoy the moment!
SO happy for you! A TWO book deal, how exciting!!! Just asked my partner to preorder Rewitched through her bookstore. I can tell the message about "wasted potential" is gonna hit me hard... 😅
I’m turning 30 so your special words about igniting your inner magic and unlocking your potential sparked something in me as it’s literally what I’m doing at the moment in my healing journey, so your book really spoke to me ♥️ thank you for reminding us of our inner magic! ✨ Really happy to see you fulfill your dreams, one dream at a time! Wishing you so much happiness ✨
I cannot wait for it !! I'm not really into the contemporary and current fantasy book vibes because I either don't like the writing or the plot is too poor (I'm more of a classics kinda gal) but I have to say that your book seems really nice ! I'm really looking forward to reading it :) I too, as a 28 year old avid reader since I was a child, am looking to be an author. I've been having ideas for years and years but never actually acted on them because I'm so scared of the implications, what if I'm not good enough, if I can't find the words etc...I hope one day I'll be brave the way you have been.
Congratulations!!!! Guys, preordering books is very important! Please preorder now! I already preordered two to Switzerland (one for my sister), but we'll probably only be getting it on September 24 :(
This is the most absolutely exciting news, you're an AUTHOR! Congratulations! The way you surmised your book, the moral about not losing your magic even as we get older, was so so touching, and I really needed that reminder today. Something that I'd be super interested in is if you kind of explaining your writing process and sharing any tips or advice you have for writing a novel as I've been grappling with my own writing for years and it's just so inspiring to see you getting published!
I'm so happy you are allowing yourself to be proud of this! SO proud of you! Plus I was thinking how I'd love to read a book about the various kinds of love and you just... wrote it??? Can't wait to meet those characters!
🙋♀️ I also cried! Congrats, pal! Please give us all of the juicy details about the whole process! I would EAT UP some writing vlogs. Would love to see more about how this book came about. Lucy about to entire her authortube era 🥲
I've just pre-ordered! I'm so happy for you, as a subscriber whos followed you for quite some time, and also as an aspiring author myself - I understand how important this is for you
Massive congratulations Lucy 🍾🥂!! Determination and flipping hard work has created your dream !! Well done Lucy 👌.......now we can all be a part of that dream and read ... read ... read ..your novels 🥳💐
Lucy! I have been a subscriber for 10+ years and I am teary at this announcement! The premise of the book and the fulfilment of your dream 😍🥲😭 So proud of you and can’t wait to read it!
Oh Lucy, I’m so happy for you! I thought this might be the news you couldn’t announce last year and am so glad this has come your way. Can’t wait to read it ❤
Hi Lucy! Fairly silent subscriber here but needed to say a big congratulations to you 🎉. An amazing achievement and as a 30 something myself a reminder to invest in your own magic is needed! ✨️ Will preorder this evening 😊 📙
I'd love to know more about the cover-making process! I see that there isn't one revealed yet and I wondered if you know when that will happen. 😁& of course, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
I remember watching your very first videos when I was in uni. Nearly 10 years later, it's really fantastic to see how much you have grown and what you have achieved. It's been so lovely to see. I can't wait to get my hands on your book! Congratulations. 💖
When you started tearing up, I was tearing up right there with you!! I've been watching your videos for years and I can't even begin to express how proud I am of you!!
Hi there! I’ve followed you for years and taken many many book requests from you and this is by far the one I’m most excited for. I can’t tell you how excited I am for you! This will come out right before I turn 30 myself and I cannot wait to read it and meet these characters ❤ what a treat!
vlog qs: how do you pick a publisher, or they pick you? how did you decide on a 2-book deal? can you explain what you did with notebooks and paper vs laptop? do you have any info on ebooks, audiobooks, paperbacks, translations? what are you going to do between now and sept? will you be doing any signings? how much of the 2nd book is planned?
Lucy I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am for this! You bet your bottom dollar I almost broke my neck I moved that fast to pre order. This sounds like the most perfect cosy vibes! You should be so proud of yourself, you did it girl 💪📚🫶I am actually beaming with pride for you, make sure you are enjoying every moment of this and not stressing out of your eyeballs 😂
Was watching this while doing the dishes, squealed with excitement, then dropped a cutting board on my fingers and screamed even louder lol. SO so genuinely happy for you, Lucy!! Super congrats!! I cannot WAIT to get my hands on a copy!!!!
I just bought it on Amazon but it would be great if you left links for international orders, orders at Easons, and etc like how Melanie Murphy did her novel. I think it could just be helpful for your huge fanbase. Very excited for the book and can't for you to reveal the art too!
It's only a UK release at the moment and I'm waiting to hear what the best international option is to share, but some of the retailers offer international shipping, I think its free on Blackwells 😊 Thank you!!
Omgosh congratulations!! 😊 Please please don't feel bad or like you're boasting, you are very much allowed to feel proud of this, it's a huge achievement! I've been watching your channel for a really long time and absolutely love the soft cozy vibes and as soon as you said your book was cozy and autumnal and witchy, I literally went on my phone and pre-ordered it about halfway through watching the video 😂 super super excited to read it 😊
Congratulations on becoming an author! I’m preordering! When you listed off your influences I felt that and will add The Worst Witch too. I love that the characters are older as well. And I know it’s not about the cover but I can’t wait to see it, I know it’s gonna be 🤌 take some time to breathe now and get out the house 😅 congrats again 🖤✨
You gave me chills! As someone that wrote in highschool and studied writing, publishing a book is an absolute dream. I’m so happy for you Lucy. I preordered it so quickly last night, I can’t wait. ✨❤️
I CRIED :( Congratulations!! Im currently on my own path of rediscovering my dreams and pursuing new directions and the things you said really struck me!!
I am so beyond ELATED for this news! I will be reading this at the very second I can get my hands on it!! Additionally, I am SO BEYOND happy for you! Lucy I cant think of anyone else that deserves this moment more than you :). An author!!! You are an author!!! AHHHHH!!!!
Wow! I never really comment on RUclips videos but had to say a massive well done. You crying made me cry 😭 So happy for you to have created something with so much love and also have it recognised by a publisher. Honestly over the moon for you x
Okay I have to comment again. This story sounds like everything I need. I’ve just turned 30 and this slaps. I knew that whenever you would put out a book it would be incredible. I cannot wait for September 🥹🧡

Congrats Lucy!! This is so exciting and lovely. I will be buying the book. I also just wanted to thank you for sharing this general message.

I know what that dormant magic feels like, and I can see that you do too. Can’t wait to read it. 🪄
I just saw this quote (paraphrased): "Don't get rid of the part of you that is cringe, get rid of the part that cringes." Good luck with your dream!
Thank you so much! PLEASE GO FOR IT. Someone might 'cringe', but that's on them - it probably means it's something they're keeping hidden themselves or have been taught to be embarrassed of, so it hurts them to see someone else doing it proudly and shining. Nothing about following your dreams is embarrassing ❤️
I don't think I've ever been more excited and emotionally invested in a book launch
IM HONOURED 😭❤️🥰
Nobody deserves this more than you! Of course, someone with such magic in their eyes and who so effortlessly brings comfort to thousands of people through a camera, would write a book filled with magic and comfort.
Can’t wait to read it Lucy, congratulations xx
This is such an amazingly kind thing to say, THANK YOU 🥰

I've been having ideas for years and years but never actually acted on them because I'm so scared of the implications, what if I'm not good enough, if I can't find the words etc...I hope one day I'll be brave the way you have been.
Congratulations! 🎉
Thank you!! 😊
Congratulations!!!! Guys, preordering books is very important! Please preorder now!
I already preordered two to Switzerland (one for my sister), but we'll probably only be getting it on September 24 :(
Soooo amazing! Thank you so much, really can't wait for you to read it 🥰
Girl I cried just from hearing the story of the book, stop it
So unbelievably happy for you Lucy! Congrats, can't wait to read it :) :)
Ahhhh thank you!! ❤️
I fully bawled my eyes out alongside you, Lucy. I'm so super proud of you 💛
This is the most absolutely exciting news, you're an AUTHOR! Congratulations! The way you surmised your book, the moral about not losing your magic even as we get older, was so so touching, and I really needed that reminder today. Something that I'd be super interested in is if you kind of explaining your writing process and sharing any tips or advice you have for writing a novel as I've been grappling with my own writing for years and it's just so inspiring to see you getting published!
I'm so happy you are allowing yourself to be proud of this! SO proud of you! Plus I was thinking how I'd love to read a book about the various kinds of love and you just... wrote it??? Can't wait to meet those characters!
Pre ordered in a heartbeat. Can’t think of anyone else I’d rather support with my money.
Soooo kind of you, thank you!! 🥰
This is the best news! 💛
Thank you so much 🥰
I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying!
🙋♀️ I also cried! Congrats, pal!
Please give us all of the juicy details about the whole process! I would EAT UP some writing vlogs. Would love to see more about how this book came about.
Lucy about to entire her authortube era 🥲

Hi Lucy! Fairly silent subscriber here but needed to say a big congratulations to you 🎉. An amazing achievement and as a 30 something myself a reminder to invest in your own magic is needed! ✨️ Will preorder this evening 😊 📙
Awh thank you a MILLION 🥰❤️
I'd love to know more about the cover-making process! I see that there isn't one revealed yet and I wondered if you know when that will happen. 😁& of course, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
I remember watching your very first videos when I was in uni. Nearly 10 years later, it's really fantastic to see how much you have grown and what you have achieved. It's been so lovely to see. I can't wait to get my hands on your book! Congratulations. 💖
When you started tearing up, I was tearing up right there with you!! I've been watching your videos for years and I can't even begin to express how proud I am of you!!
Wow, thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
I can’t think of anyone that deserves this more!! I’m so so happy for you and I’m absolutely sure it will be a success!
Lucy oh my gosh, be proud! Brag! Boast! You're a freakinggg author!!
Thank youuuu!! AGHHHH 😭❤️🥰
Hi there! I’ve followed you for years and taken many many book requests from you and this is by far the one I’m most excited for. I can’t tell you how excited I am for you! This will come out right before I turn 30 myself and I cannot wait to read it and meet these characters ❤ what a treat!
You have been my comfort content creator for SO long now and as I've gotten back into reading in my 30's, I couldn't be happier and more proud of you!
I am honoured to have that title! Thank you so much 😊
Yayyyy! I saw this coming with the hints in recent videos, it's so exciting!
Hahaha worst kept secret 😂 thank you!
vlog qs: how do you pick a publisher, or they pick you? how did you decide on a 2-book deal? can you explain what you did with notebooks and paper vs laptop? do you have any info on ebooks, audiobooks, paperbacks, translations? what are you going to do between now and sept? will you be doing any signings? how much of the 2nd book is planned?
Thank you for these! 👏🏻
I love this for you!
Thank you!! 😊
Lucy I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am for this! You bet your bottom dollar I almost broke my neck I moved that fast to pre order. This sounds like the most perfect cosy vibes!
You should be so proud of yourself, you did it girl 💪📚🫶I am actually beaming with pride for you, make sure you are enjoying every moment of this and not stressing out of your eyeballs 😂
Was watching this while doing the dishes, squealed with excitement, then dropped a cutting board on my fingers and screamed even louder lol. SO so genuinely happy for you, Lucy!! Super congrats!! I cannot WAIT to get my hands on a copy!!!!
Ahhh OH NO I hope your fingers are okay! 😂 Thank you SO much pal, very kind xx
I'm so happy for you, so so happy to share your joy and to read a novel that sounds like the perfect companion for the beginning of autumn.
I just bought it on Amazon but it would be great if you left links for international orders, orders at Easons, and etc like how Melanie Murphy did her novel. I think it could just be helpful for your huge fanbase. Very excited for the book and can't for you to reveal the art too!
I was able to order it from Amazon UK to Switzerland, the delivery time sucks though.
It's only a UK release at the moment and I'm waiting to hear what the best international option is to share, but some of the retailers offer international shipping, I think its free on Blackwells 😊 Thank you!!
So thrilled for you and can't wait to read it ❤️📖
Woohoo! Thank you 🥰
I have never pre-ordered something so fast!
Omgosh congratulations!! 😊 Please please don't feel bad or like you're boasting, you are very much allowed to feel proud of this, it's a huge achievement! I've been watching your channel for a really long time and absolutely love the soft cozy vibes and as soon as you said your book was cozy and autumnal and witchy, I literally went on my phone and pre-ordered it about halfway through watching the video 😂 super super excited to read it 😊
Thank you so much my friend! Really appreciate it 🥰✨
So very pleased for you, this is a momentous thing to be proud of. Couldn’t wait to pre order, and can’t wait to read! Congratulations!! 💕
Not me here crying my eyes out I'm so happy for you and so so excited to read it!
Ahhhh CRYING TOGETHER, love that for us. Thank you pal 💕
so happy for you lucy! i can't wait to dive into the world you've created
Congratulations on becoming an author! I’m preordering! When you listed off your influences I felt that and will add The Worst Witch too. I love that the characters are older as well. And I know it’s not about the cover but I can’t wait to see it, I know it’s gonna be 🤌 take some time to breathe now and get out the house 😅 congrats again 🖤✨
You gave me chills! As someone that wrote in highschool and studied writing, publishing a book is an absolute dream. I’m so happy for you Lucy. I preordered it so quickly last night, I can’t wait. ✨❤️
Go for it! I totally believe in you! Thank you so much 🥰
I CRIED :( Congratulations!! Im currently on my own path of rediscovering my dreams and pursuing new directions and the things you said really struck me!!
I am so beyond ELATED for this news! I will be reading this at the very second I can get my hands on it!! Additionally, I am SO BEYOND happy for you! Lucy I cant think of anyone else that deserves this moment more than you :). An author!!! You are an author!!! AHHHHH!!!!
“Once I get started you will never shut me up” my friend I humbly request a live book talk 💕
Wow! I never really comment on RUclips videos but had to say a massive well done. You crying made me cry 😭 So happy for you to have created something with so much love and also have it recognised by a publisher. Honestly over the moon for you x
Crying together 😭😂 thank you so, so much! x
Amazing!! Congratulations 🎉
Thank you so much 🥰
Okay I have to comment again. This story sounds like everything I need. I’ve just turned 30 and this slaps. I knew that whenever you would put out a book it would be incredible. I cannot wait for September 🥹🧡
Amazing news Lucy, I'm so excited to read it
