Submitted question covered in this blog:
"Can you recommend any books that have spells in them?"
Thank you for submitting this question! Along with the books recommended in this previous blog entry: https://www.askagreywitch.com/post/book-recommendations Book recommendations, which some do contain examples of spellwork, I can also mention a few more books that also go in depth about magickal workings and spells, and a pagan lifestyle, etc.
It should be mentioned that without I found these books helpful asking the ways of my practice, they did but define my practice completely. It's always important to go with what resonates with you in a practice of the craft. Please note that the books are shared here as examples of what I personally have read and found interesting or assistive and may help you find something if your own interest to read about, or expand your thinking in order to find your own resources.
