What are you reading ATM

[Jaime 15]

The first book is from a television series that was aired in the UK. I will be reading the sequel, Britain AD next.

 

The second is a translation of OI texts from a long list provided to me that I am working my way through.

 

The last was one I found on an academic site relating to Cunningcraft, the link to which I posted in the newly formed links section. ;)

 

 

Sweet! :D

 

I picked up on the link already, tks!

I've read some stuff by Louise Hay....very good. ATM im reading A History of Social Care in Great Britain (not as bad as it sounds), it's part of my uni work, Hand of Evil by J A Jance....just finished Devil Bones by Kathy Reichs (a load of cobblers!) and waiting for The Heir to Sevenwaters by Julliet Marrilier which comes out on Nov 7th.

ooh I ordered a book on amazon a few weeks ago called "the witches guide to life" by kala trobe and it came in the post last night.

 

I did have second thoughts about reading it as after joining here and learning there are a lot of books out there that are not relevant to trad w. I thought it was gonna be another wiccan book but its actually pretty good so far :-)

 

Am only on the first chapter but it includes this huge section on the differences between wiccan and non wiccan witches and traditional witchcraft, which is a good help :-) and she also says that the rest of her book will be giving both the wiccan and non wiccan view points....so I'm just gonna underline the bits I think are relevant to me as I go along.

 

I reckon its the the best book on wc that I have bought so far (tho, as I said, I am only a chapter in....we'll see hehe.)

 

anyone else read it?

I read a fictional book by Kala Trobe, I think it was called the Magickal Bookshop or something. For a fictional book, and pretty much a light read i really enjoyed it so maybe give that a go as well.

[Brigid 51]

Currently;

Man and his Symbols By Carl G. Jung

The Practice of Celtic Wisdom Druid Magic By Maya Magee Sutton and Nicholas R. Mann

The Irish Celtic Magical Tradition "Ancient Wisdom of the Battle of Moytura" By Steve Blamires.

 

Really need to get something light in here! LOL but that's what sports are for :)

[lurcher 11]

Oh all there academic works put my two to shame.

Just finished Neil Gaiman's American Gods which is a must for everyone.

I tend to have a Pratchett on the go most of the time for a little light relief. Currently its Guards! Guards!

 

Not sure what I'll turn to next.

ROFLMAO @ Brian,

 

What you don't understand is that I spend all of my days with a 4 yr. old boy, hence at the end of the day, my brain in some serious need of stimulation. :) Actually, I looked up the book you mentioned "American Gods" It looks interesting!!

[Ancestral Celt 17]

"Tales of Beedle the Bard" by J.K. Rowling.

Should be finished in another 45 minutes. :rofl:

[Singing Bird 10]

Right?! i get on here every day.. I'm obviously addicted. =/

 

it's put up right now but I'm currently on Crone's Book of Charms and Spells. Some interesting stuff in there, and I'm lovin the inspirational boost. :D

[Cairelle 55]

I am reading "The Affair of the Poisons: Murder, Infanticide, and Satanism at the Court of Louis XIV" by Anne Somerset.

 

VERY interesting!

[sophiadawn 12]

The only book I have finished in the past week (and I have read it several times!!) is "Corduroys Halloween" hahahah...yeah, perfect reading for 1 yr olds...and those boys already like books. I think they must take after me.

 

On a grown-up level, I took "Mists of Avalon" off the shelf with the idea I would finally read it, read the prologue so far. I also have "The Omnivore's Dilemna" in progress. I have been sorting through a bunch of magazines lately too.

[Guest Landieth]

I've put away the Crone's book since I bought a book on Indigo children..

 

Beyond the Indigo Children - P.M.H. Atwater L.H.D.

 

It's a bit different and touches on prophecy and such, but actually - to me at least, makes a whole lot of god damn sense. LOL

 

After which I'll be reading Stephen King's - The Talisman.

[Guest Oakbuchanan]

I loved Wicked, but haven't read the sequel. I've seen his other books at the store too and plan to pick them up as well one day. :) Thanks for reminding me!

I just found out there is a third book in the series, A Lion Among Men, which I'll have my eye out for once I finish this one.

[sarasuperid 366]

I am reading the other side of virtue by brenden myers. It is about ethics--and it is not the wiccan variety. I am loving it!

Very cool!!! I'll be checking that out too! Wicked was pretty cool, and I want to read.. I think the name of his book was 'Mirror, Mirror'.

Read it and do a review, and I'll do one for Son of a Witch. If they stink, we'll save each other a lot of time and moolah. :coffee:
