Merry meet, Himari, I think a good book to start with may be _The Witch’s Way_, Shawn Robbins/Leanna Greenaway. There are thousands of books available now and I would suggest you review them online prior to purchase. You may want to explore some of the many sites available to help you determine what path you want to follow for now. As a rule, if someone says, “You have to…”, I ignore anything they say. There are exceedingly few things you “have” to do. Ask yourself: what makes me a witch, what do i like about being a witch, why am i a witch, what do I hope to accomplish by being a witch. Really get to know yourself so that no one else can tell you who you are. Brightest blessings! ---
