A touching and thought-provoking account of how a woman explored a
spectrum of religions-ancient and new-and ended up, unexpectedly,
becoming a bona fide witch-plus a celebration of modern Wicca and
witchcraft, spell books, broomsticks, holiday recipes and recipes
for the changing of the seasons, and much more. Misty Bell Stiers
set out on a spiritual path to find a faith that worked for her,
and accidentally became a witch. She knew the Bible well, and got
to know the Torah and Koran. She studied Eastern philosophies, even
the stories of the Egyptians and Greeks. Finally, after overcoming
an immediate prejudice ("Um, no," she writes as her initial
reaction), she found Wicca. Witch, Please reveals what makes the
mysterious religion of Wicca so desirable for more than a million
Americans. In her witty, direct, and heartfelt text, Misty explores
spirituality, perseverance, and finding oneself. She shares what
Wicca means to her and what defines her as a witch; what she uses
her spell book, cauldron, and broomstick for; the significance of
Wiccan holidays, many about new beginnings; the surprising history
of Wicca; and what kinds of witches there are. She also shares how
in her busy New York City life, as a mother and a creative
director, her faith grounds and sustains her. Her uplifting,
you-too-can-find-what-works-for-you voice speaks like a best
friend: relatable, honest, and encouraging. This unusual and
beautifully written memoir explores what it's like to be a
modern-day witch, and how it's changed Misty's outlook on life.
It's candid, but it's also threaded with magic and has a warming,
lightheartedness to it. Bewitching original drawings by Misty are
throughout, and Misty even shares ten original recipes for her
Wiccan holiday treats (including the likes of her cinnamon rolls
and roasted garlic rosemary bread, sprinkled with magic and
seasoned with love, laughter, and healing).
