Easy Enchantments: All the Spells You'll Ever Need for Any Occasion

Featured on 20/20 and CNN, and in The New York Times and USA Today, Lexa Rosean, the flamboyant author of Easy Enchantments, has been practicing witchcraft in New York City for over 16 years. Her comprehensive witch's cookbook is based on the tradition of kitchen witchery, meaning that all of the ingredients are probably sitting in your cupboard or desk. After giving readers 13 dos and don'ts for all magical procedures--e.g. "do what ye will, but harm none"--and explaining the importance of the phases of the moon, Rosean delves right into 178 pages of spells that anyone can easily accomplish. For example, to draw together two lovers living in different cities, all you need is a map, pink taper candles, white pushpins, cinnamon chewing gum, and hot chili pepper oil. But how do you get them to move to your city? --P. Randall Cohan
