This book club began in 2007 in response to a gap in book clubs in the West side of the Triangle. Since then, many book clubs have emerged (on meetup, and elsewhere). We're still around, and I guess that means something is working. We alternate locations (between Chapel Hill and Durham), and for the most part, meet the last Tuesday of the month. Our four organizers all love this book club, and participate often. We're always looking for new members and fresh ideas in discussion. What can you exp …

If you loved the Hunger Games, Princess Diaries, Sweet Valley Confidential, and all those other books that you want to put a paper bag book-cover on so nobody sees what you're reading, then you've found the right place!

Most people don't know what to expect from joining a coven.  Very few books are written about coven dynamics or what life is like once you've made the decision to give up the solitary path and seek out a more formal education in a magickal tradition.  Many people feel that a coven is a place to go to avoid celebrating the seasons, sabbats, esbats alone.  They think that joining a coven is about being friends and having a good time with other like-minded people. All those are part of being a cove …
