| Reading is one of my all time favourite hobbies. With the kids and work and everything else I barely get any time to do it anymore, but I've come accustomed now to reading in the car. I know it sounds weird, but I'm not much for going into stores and stuff and so while I'm the driver in the family (Hubby has severe carpal tunnel in both hands) I have to drive everywhere and then sit. So I have gotten used to bringing a book with me so I have something to do.
Since November I started getting into more ecopsychology books and stuff, and have read Soulcraft by Bill Plotkin, Walkers Between Worlds, by Caitlin Matthews and The Mist-Filled Path by Frank MacEowen.
Right now I'm working on reading The Druids by Jean Markale and I have to say out of the first three authors, he is by far the best. His work is absolutely brilliant, and I love how he uses references to the oldest books in history, like recounts from Julius Caesar and Pliny the Elder himself.
So, since I'm always looking for more good books to read, I wonder what you're reading right now!
Blessings, Rhiannon | |

| I'm reading several at the moment: New Moon - Stephanie Meyer (Twilight Series) Power of Now - Eckhart Tolle The Secret (again Theta Healing The Dresden Series (book 6) I carry all these with me in a bag - I can't go anywhere without my books...I'm so bad that when I travel I end up with more books and things than I do clothes. | |

| Hehe oh my!!
I was reading Terry Goodkind's Wizard's First Rule, hey, I'm a Druid, he included them in his books . . . I wanted to see how accurate he was being.
But I stopped because of the show Legend of the Seeker, which isn't following the book very well at all. I keep wondering, what about the mud people? What about the ritual? But they might be keeping it safe for the public for now . . .
*sigh*
Other than that, let me know how New Moon is, I liked Twilight as a movie, it was the first time I spent the whole movie feeling my stomache in knots and wondering by god when will this end? | |

| A little off topic, but did you know there is a TV series based on the seeker novels?
It's called "The Legend of the Seeker". I don't know where it is on TV (i get it online) but it might be preferable to reading all the books. I read a few myself but couldn't get all the way in either. | |

| right now i'm reading
'My Life at Rose Red - The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer' edited by Joyce Reardon
It was made into a fantastic movie and a great mini-series by Stephen King. It's been about my favorite book since elementary and I just found it for $2.00 at half price books about a month ago and nearly died! I'm reading it now, and I'm realizing that my mother had NO idea what kind of book her 5th grader was reading, and their are quite a few passages in there that I know i didn't understand back then! lol. Great book though, focuses on a mansion (Rose Red) in the 1900's that is alive, men die and women disappear in the house. It's a fantastic read! | |

| So Right now I'm really into Heather Graham books as well as Nora Roberts. I'm on the Flynn Brothers Trilogy by Heather Graham. I'm on the second book called deadly Harvest! I'm getting very close to being done! I can't wait to read the last one! The trilogy is about 3 brothers and their paranormal happenings as they fall in love with the women they are trying to protect! The first was about spirits, the second is about scarecrows and I'm not sure about the third yet, but I look forward to finding out! | |

| Are you truly reading that?
I am reading, "The secret mysteries of the Arthurian Tradition" by Gareth Knight.
Thought, I highly doubt that's the author's real name! | |

| Right now, thanks to the mentioning of the musical Wicked in my music class, I read Wicked, and am now reading the second part Son of a Witch, but recently I read Daemon Hall. That was an extremely interesting book, I greatly enjoyed it. | |

| In the original ten volumes of the "Equinox", Aleister Crowley succeeded in synthesizing the aim of religion and the method of science. Israel Regardie's selections in "Gems of the Equinox" make a volume that is invaluable to readers, students and adepts. It includes material on Crowley's magical order, magical rituals, yoga, invocations and sex magick, among many other topics. "Gems from the Equinox" is a unique resource that serves as a veritable textbook for the magickal orders AA and O.T.O.Although it is written for the advanced practitioner, beginners will gain much from its many pages of wisdom, including yoga postures and breathing techniques, ceremonial rituals and meditations, an Enochian magick primer, and "The Book of the Law". In "Gems from the Equinox", Israel Regardie's selections of Aleister Crowley's writings synthesize the aim of religion and the method of science, making it invaluable to readers, students, and adepts. "Gems" is a must have for every student of Occultism, Mysticism, Thelema, Magick, and comparative religion.
Love and Light
