some of my favorites:

• braiding sweetgrass
• the dabbler’s guide to witchcraft
• hausmagick
• queering your craft

On witchcraft I recommend:

• Drawing Down the Moon by Margot Adler
• Buckland’s Complete Book of Witchcraft by Raymond Buckland
• Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practicioner by Scott Cunningham

I read these years ago, though I enjoyed the first two more than the third.

Some other books of a spiritual nature that I have re-read (which I suppose is the best recommendation of any book) are Siddhartha by Herman Hesse and The Seven Storey Mountain by Thomas Merton.

For myth I have to recommmend The Power of Myth by Joseph Campbell and Bill Moyers. I feel it’s kind of essential reading to more deeply understand why specific types of stories (spiritual or otherwise) resonate with people. Also, there is a lecture series available for free on Youtube if you prefer to watch or listen, or can’t find a copy of the book.

“It’s Easier Than You Think” by Sylvia Boorstein

“Who Ordered This Truckload of Dung?” by Ajahn Brahm

I learn well from stories, and both of these books teach basic Buddhist philosophy through very short stories.
