Thanks for posting that link to the free eBooks!
*This post has been updated on October 2, 2006.*I don't mean to list my whole library here, Okay, so I
did post my whole paganism/Wicca book collection, but I've enjoyed every book on Wicca or Witchcraft that I've ever read. I've just read all of these in the past 2 months, with the exception of
Teen Witch, which I read like 4 years ago when I was in high school.
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Wicca and Witchcraft by Denise Zimmerman and Katherine A. Gleason, I think, is a really wonderful book for beginners. I'm a beginner myself, and I like this book because it touches on many different topics. It covers a lot of things. If I was to take only one book everywhere with me, it would have to be this one. I think it makes a good reference guide. The best book on Wicca I've read. I haven't finished this book yet... Just a few more pages to go...I strongly recommend this book! The price listed on the back of it is $16.95.
Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham is another good intro book, for Wiccans and non-Wiccans alike. This is the book that most people are gonna recommend to you first especially if you're new to Wicca. $9.95
Rocking the Goddess: Campus Wicca for the Student Practitioner by Anthony Paige is a great book. It's written for Wiccans in the college population. Makes you feel more relieved to know that there are lots of college Wiccans out there, and what's great is that you get to read many of their stories in this book. This book understands that most college students aren't the richest in the world, when it comes to buying ritual items. $12.95
Teen Witch by Silver RavenWolf was the first book I ever read. That's when I discovered The Craft five years ago. The book was good in some ways 'cuz she tells you stories of other teenagers who also practice Wicca. Her history of witchcraft may be inaccurate, though. $12.95
Book of Shadows by Phyllis Curott is more of an inspirational book. I thought it was really good, and it gives you an idea of what being in a coven is like, I think. I found that this book was available in my local public library, so I just borrowed it since I can't really afford to spend money all the time. I thought this was a really good book. Tells you a bit about mythology too. $15.95
To Ride a Silver Broomstick is another one by Silver RavenWolf. I've only read maybe like the first 1/8 of this book, but I liked the way RavenWolf writes as if she's speaking to you in person in a friendly way. $14.95
The Encyclopedia of Magic and Witchcraft by Susan Greenwood was on discount when I saw it, and as I looked through it, I knew I
had to get it. I looked through it some more, and I really looks like a good book that gives you an overview of the different kinds of witchcraft and magic around the world in the past and present. $29.95
The Element Encyclopedia of Witchcraft: The Complete A-Z for the Entire Magical World by Judika Illes was a book I just bought a few days ago. I thought it looked like a book packed with lots of info on magickal stuff. So yeah, I got it. I still have yet to look through it.... It's still in the trunk of my car because I'm hiding from my parents. They hate it when I spend money when I don't need to. I got the hardcover version. There's also a paperback. $34.71
Spell in Your Pocket by Kate West is a tiny little book that tells you a bit about the beliefs and practice of Wicca and also comes with a few little spells in the back. I haven't read the whole thing yet, but I think this is a good book for those who just want to get a little idea of what Wicca is. $8.95
Not like you needed to know - books I plan to read in the future:
That
Complete Idiot's Guide to Wicca Craft by Miria Liguana and Nina Metzner looks like a good book to me. It seems to be a book that shows you how to make your own ritual tools and stuff. I plan to get that book sometime soon. $16.95
The Science Of The Craft: Modern Realities in the Ancient Art of Witchcraft by William H., Jr. Keith is another book I want to get soon. Seems to me it's about quantum physics and of course, The Craft.
Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft by Raymond Buckland $17.95
Spiral Dance, The - 20th Anniversary : A Rebirth of the Ancient Religion of the Goddess: 20th Anniversary Edition by Starhawk $17.00
Drawing Down the Moon : Witches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in America Today by Margot Adler $18.00
