Magic Is Something You Make

RECOMMENDED BOOKS

Books are a uniquely portable magic.
― Stephen King

I have always loved the magic of words, and I’ve probably read at least a thousand books up until now. I read everything from fairy tales to biographies, but this page is dedicated to those books who will inspire you and help you grow as a person as well as books on astrology, tarot and Wicca/paganism. If you want some tips on fiction, please contact me and I’d me more than happy to recommend you some of my favorites!
