Book Coven: Ceremonials
Tuesday, October 4 | 6:30-8pm CT on Zoom

Book Coven — our celebration of witchy books and writers — returns for a reading romance with Ceremonials, the debut novella by Katharine Coldiron.

Inspired by Florence + the Machine’s 2011 album of the same name, Ceremonials is a short read (just 124 luscious pages!) — all swiftly swirling prose that wraps you in the story of Amelia and Corisande, two Catholic school girls enrapt in a friend-romance that ends tragically when Corisande drowns in a nearby lake.

But this is only the beginning.

Ceremonials explores how the bonds of friendship and love can bridge two realms, what it means to love a ghost (and a girl), to be loved in return… what it means to be saved and savior, and to choose one’s living self at all costs.

Interspersed throughout the pages of this haunting, vibrant tale are gorgeous full-color images by Mariana Magaña de Lio that resonate beautifully with the storyline — much like Tarot cards!

Read this gem in one enchanting evening, then join us for a conversation with the author! We’ll discuss the creation of this book, its origins, magic, themes, and questions. We’ll pull cards and talk to the characters (and maybe a couple ghosts, too!). Bring your questions for Katharine as well!

Tickets are free, and you can reserve your spot by simply emailing Typewriter Tarot. The Zoom link for Book Coven will be shared 24 hours before the event.

To get your copy of Ceremonials, purchase directly from Katharine by sending $15 via PayPal to kcoldiron@gmail.com. Katharine will include a personalized autograph, unless you’d rather she not (just let her know that!). If you must, you can order the book from Amazon.
