Download As PDF : Diary of a Witchcraft Shop 2 eBook Liz Williams Trevor Jones 
In 2005, fantasy and SF author extraordinaire Liz Williams took the plunge, moving from her beloved Brighton to Glastonbury to live with her partner, Trevor Jones. Trevor ran a witchcraft shop. Liz’s life would never be the same again…
Welcome to a second instalment of the joys, challenges and downright oddness inherent in running an eclectic business in the fable-rich village of Glastonbury. Aided and abetted by Jack and Jamie, the Voodoo boys, Liz and Trevor guide us through twelve months of amusing incidents and bizarre events, introducing us in passing to a growing menagerie of pets, a cast of characters both charming and eccentric, and a community with a personality all its own.
Full of anecdotes and witty observations, the Diary of a Witchcraft Shop books are a delight, and Trevor Jones and Liz Williams the most congenial of hosts. If Bill Bryson ever decided to embrace paganism and open a witchcraft shop, this is surely the sort of book that would result.
Sit down, kick back, and enjoy…
Diary of a Witchcraft Shop 2 eBook Liz Williams Trevor Jones
In fact many of the anecdotes described in this book would be rejected by your average editor as being too improbable to have ever occurred - even in a town like Glastonbury. However they did occur, then were written about by Liz & Trevor and they will cause the reader to snort, giggle, nasally exhale beverages and so on.Throughout at least a millennium, if not two or more, Glastonbury has been considered a special mystical place and there are many people who come to Glastonbury and recover their spiritual bearings. This book and its prequel are not, in general, about these people. Rather they are mostly about the umm "special" people who come to Glastonbury in the apparent belief that it has an urgent unfilled vacancy for village (town) idiot.
Buy it, read it (away from any beverages), and enjoy.

Diary of a Witchcraft Shop 2 eBook Liz Williams Trevor Jones Reviews
Absolutely wonderful book, I loved reading it.
Extremely entertaining stories about life in the Cat & Cauldron shop and in and around Glastonbury itself.
I found myself laughing at the silliness of the human race and nodding in total agreement to the views and opinions put forward.
Well worth a read, especially if you know Glastonbury but also if you don't - it gives you an honest approach to how mad this very special village truly is.
I am a huge fan of Williams's writing anyway, so when I got an ebook reader this was the very first book I downloaded.
And it was a great choice! It is SO much fun to read, and the format- month by month, but with meanderings- is perfect for this kind of memoir.
Williams does a tone-perfect job of both describing many of the absurdities encountered, but without being at all mean-spirited (though there was the occasion touch of snark).
I'd recommend this highly to both Williams fans, AND to us Pagans who tend to rely on shops like these!
Interesting musings geared for pagans. The anecdotes and observations are recorded in the form of a journal kept by the owners of a witchcraft shop. While I enjoyed reading the insights, I kept waiting (and looking) for a plot thread to tie everything together and was disappointed when one didn't develop.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for review.
Seriously boring. Frown and not a lot about paganism or mentions of spells or anything to learn about it in anyway. Just brief mentions here or there as well as tons of abbreviations Americans will need to look up just to figure out wth they're talking about at all.
The writing was dry and humorless and lacked any buildup or knowledge of characters.
I do NOT recommend this book or author. Why it's even under pagan fiction I'll never understand.
What a lovely diversion to read this book.
Good reading.
Like the first book, Diary of a Witchcraft Shop 2 brings the reader into the not-so-mundane life of Liz Williams and her husband, employees, associates, and passers-by with a brisk clarity of detail and constant humor. In may ways her experiences remind me of a green, lush, and occasionally waterlogged Taos, NM or Sedona, AZ, with more would-be Celtic practitioners and fewer Native American imitators. Williams does not put her fellow occult practitioners on the pedestal one sometimes encounters, but gently reminds readers that all belief systems have a few problematic followers. Her accounts of trips to London, France, and Ireland entertain, as do her university students, and the recalcitrant pony and the dog who practices ritual magic. Readers familiar with the various flavors of the occult scene will nod, and perhaps wince, and laugh. Others will laugh and smile, and wonder who DID put that raven on the competition's doorstep? A excellent small book about retail, the English religious scene, and life in a small tourist town.
In fact many of the anecdotes described in this book would be rejected by your average editor as being too improbable to have ever occurred - even in a town like Glastonbury. However they did occur, then were written about by Liz & Trevor and they will cause the reader to snort, giggle, nasally exhale beverages and so on.
Throughout at least a millennium, if not two or more, Glastonbury has been considered a special mystical place and there are many people who come to Glastonbury and recover their spiritual bearings.
