On Your Mark, Get Set, READ! :books:

  1. Begin by announcing your book
    The first post below is an editable wiki post- add your book title and name to the list! (instructions below)

  2. Know that you have [[ the whole month ]] in this reading session
    While it is great if you can finish your book during this time, it is okay if you break it into chapters or sections- do as much as you can and know that doing your best is always good enough!

  3. As youā€™re reading, feel free to share your thoughts!
    You are very welcome to share any thoughts or tidbits while you read in the comments below or in a new post in the forums. Just save the best parts for the final discussion at the end of the reading period!

  4. Join the final discussion
    When the month is over, a discussion post will open encouraging all readers to share a review of their book and any personal thoughts they have about it. A mini-review is perfectly fine, and there will be a suggested format for anyone who would like to write a longer review.

A note about sharing books:

While everyone is free to choose their own book, you may consider reading along with someone else ! It is fun to share thoughts and insights about different books and even more exciting to do in-depth about a book with fellow readers :handshake:

If the book you plan to read is already on the list below, add your name to the list of others reading that book! Please keep in mind that everyone will reconvene and chat together in the Readerā€™s Reviews discussion, regardless of which book you read :books:

Not sure what to read?

You can find book recommendations in:

And also:

Reading on a budget?

Free online books can be found in:

Iā€™ve added my book, Psychic Witch by Mat Auryn. Iā€™ve had the audiobook for awhile but Iā€™m not getting through it easily.
I have a paperback arriving tomorrow.

I love that book! Honestly I love all of his books. I have the audiobook. I wish I could collect all of his titles in paperback. My witchy funds canā€™t keep up with my wishlist.

@WrenEve - Psychic Witch is a pretty good book! Iā€™m not too keen on Mattā€™s belief system, but his exercises for psychic development and energy work are very solid. I hope you enjoy it!

Hereā€™s my entry! Im going to put the name of the book in Spanish, since I dont know the title in english.

Im currently reading ā€œHĆ©cate, la diosa de las brujasā€ by Courtney Weber

(the translation would be ā€œHecate, the goddess of the witchesā€)

Iā€™ll add it

Iā€™m interested in this one. Iā€™m trying to touch base with some of the prime deities.

@SpanishWitchy - Iā€™ve heard great things about this book! Iā€™ve never read this one, but Courtney Weberā€™s book on Brigid was phenomenal. I hope you enjoy it!

I have had this book for some time now and have never gotten around to finishing it. But when i saw that you were reading it, I thought Iā€™d read it as well. I love the parts I have finished.

It was a great book! Actually, I think I may have read it years ago in print but it was nice to read it again, Iā€™d forgotten it!
