It’s a busy time of year for sure- no worries at all, @MeganB! Glad to hear you’re enjoying them so far I can’t hear wait to hear more about what you thought of the books when you’re finished!
I totally agree, @colin! There’s something really neat about looking back into the past through the words of a book. And Amelia was a very interesting woman- from Boston, too! I felt drawn towards her experience as well as her knowledge. Herbology is a wonderful aspect of magick and ties many things together (Kitchen Witchery, Green Magic, Potion making, aromatherapy, etc). I hope you have fun as you dive deeper into herbs, Colin!
It was indeed, @Berta! I’m also so grateful to see organizations like the Guten Project not only preserving old and cultural knowledge, but making sure these resources are free and accessible to all
No worries, @Susurrus! Have you had a chance to pick out a book you’d like to read for the next reading period?
It sounds like a great book that holds a lot of meaning for you, @Christina4! In a sense, it reminds me (especially the lovely quote you shared) about shadow work and taking that deep but sometimes painful look into the mirror. Thanks for sharing the recommendation!
It sounds like a book well worth a read, @Amethyst! And I love the quote you chose- what a wonderful way to welcome readers into the world of witchcraft. Now this sounds like a great book for beginners to the craft! So glad you enjoyed this one, Kasie!
I’ve seen you sharing bits of advice from this book, @Limeberry, and I was so excited to read your overall thoughts about it! It sounds like it is not only a great resource, but also a source of inspiration for your creative spells and rituals too! It definitely sounds like it is worth a read- thanks for sharing!
The Science of Happiness is quickly emerging a new area of study- I’m so excited to hear your thoughts on these books, @praecog29! It is an area I am very interested in as well Good for you for recclaiming your reading ability- I think all books are worth a read, regardless of the “age level” they stick onto it. Worthwhile lessons can be found in any book- big, small, pictures, or all text! And I think the best teachers present things in ways that people can enjoy regardless of age. This series sounds interesting and touches on so many wonderful subjects- magic and beyond! Thank you so much for sharing your insights
Looks like you found a great one, @Rowan! I’m so happy you enjoyed this book and that it was such a valuable reading experience for you I also love your quote about the reasoning why some witches choose to spell magick with a “k”. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
