So, I have this "book of shadows" little spiritual diary thing, but the paper is crap so I bought a new one and have just been using that. But this older one I've been using more to transfer over stuff I'd written on LJ or in my paper journal over the past few years. I'm really slack at this, because it's not that interesting, but I want to have it all collected in one place in case I ever want to read over it again.
And I'm looking at this entry from over two years ago where it says "I'm going to start reading Dancing in the Flames this week". It's a book about goddess figures or whatever. I say "or whatever" because I'm not entirely sure, as I still have not started reading that book.
DISCUSS:
Books on Paganism and/or witchcraft that you bought years ago and still have not read.

It's so bad that I can't even remember their titles. They're still packed up from the move, so I can't just run and check, but I know there are a bunch I bought and never read. I sold a whole slew of unread ones at a yard sale once (and they sold surprisingly fast. Who knew?) and they weren't difficult to let go, either.
I'm so bad at reading "non-fiction" books that I buy. But, I'm pretty sure a lot of them were by shitty authors, so I don't feel too bad about it. I bought them once-upon-a-time when I was an idiot, anyway.

Hmm...not sure...there will inevitably be ones that I haven't read, or haven't read yet...

There's a bunch of stuff on divination- and some stuff that a friend from school gave me because she was "out of her witchcraft phase". Some of it includes a book on sigils and one on Love Magic.

I often find I skip around in books, I tend to get a lot of magical encyclopedia type books, or books that aren't really meant to be read from left to right, cover to cover. (Judy Hall's crystal bible for example) however there are a few that lead from basics to the complex that I have sitting on my bookshelf. I got pendulum's for beginners a couple years ago when I was learning about pendulums as a tool for divination. To be honest I haven't even opened it in over a year, and even then I only looked at the first exercise.

I have a closet shelf full of things that I've not actually read, though to be fair a good bit of it was donated to me when I had my shop, or I bought more for reference purposes (so I've been through them, just not read cover to cover).

I don't currently have any but that mostly because I gave them all away recently.
