 #1Witches and Witchcraft

Books must include a witch as a main character or includes major witchcraft elements counts.

They may be fiction or non-fiction. However, they should not be reference books which are not read cover to cover-I will leave this to your discretion.

Any format, full length. Have asked if 100 pages counts.

I signed up for Maiden last year but I've only got five of the books read. I've got enough on my tbr pile for Crone but I'm going for Maiden again and hope to read 6-10 books.

#2 Witchy Fiction

This is a fiction only challenge but any sub-genre works but books must be about witches, wizards, magick, supernatural creatures, psychic powers, the paranormal, and so on.

Any format, length isn't mentioned. There are no levels so I'm going to go with the 6-10 as above. There will be a read-a-thon later!

. . . . I searched my amazon order history for "Witch". I had planned on adding the titles here but I got 7 pages! Granted the ones above were included but still. I'm not sure all the witches involved are good witches or even if they're main characters. Guess I'll find out as I'm reading

Spirituality inspires us but seldom meets in one place. I invite all mystical content! Angels, energy healing, animal communication, astrology, chakras, faith. The paranormal (phenomena that exists): ghosts, extra-sensory abilities. From miracles, to haunted house or witch fiction: we gather all etherealness together!

There are several levels but knowing I'll be reading the Psy-changeling series at the very least, I'm going for . . . Third Eye . . . and hope to read 11 - 20 titles that count.
