HAPPY FRIDAY!
Drawing Down the Moon by Margot Adler is another that I've had in my library FOREVER and never actually read more than skimming through. I've become bored with Crowley's biography, ironically enough. So this has taken it's place as my bedtime reading.
It is clear that many of the revivers of Witchcraft, such as Gerald Gardner, came into contact with various books promoting the idea of goddess worship including, at the very least, Lucius Apuleius' classical witchcraft romance, The Golden Ass (in which Apuleius becomes a priest of Isis after the goddess appears in a beautiful vision), and Charles G. Leland's Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches, published in 1899.

Nice snippet. Sounds informative and something that might have to be read in small bites.
Mine is up now too, but not super exciting.
