![]() ![]() I tossed skepticism aside and just ate it all up. Regardless of your opinion on witchcraft, this is a compelling and comprehensive story, comprising personal experience, historical references, an analysis of what witchcraft really is, and lots of lots of laugh-inducing stories. The heavy thread running over, under, and through it all (as you might have guessed from the title) are his “magick” and witchcraft skills. This includes convincing Christopher that he wants to move, searching for houses, and engaging with the “perfect” home once purchased. In this segment of his ongoing memoirs, he and husband Christopher make the move out of Manhattan. Burroughs is funny, clever, and writes in a wickedly delicious, entre-nous style. It’s hard to believe but this is my first Augusten Burroughs book! I’ve heard of Running With Scissors of course but somehow never managed to get to it. The book will be published on October 1st, 2019. Martin’s Press and NetGalley for providing an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. ![]()
