POWER SPELLS: Get the Magical Edge in Business, Work Relationships, and Life

Lexa Rosean, . . St. Martin's/ Griffin, $15.95 (160pp) ISBN 978-0-312-27476-4

Hip high priestess of a New York coven and the original "Supermarket Sorceress," Roséan has a wicked sense of humor that makes this book much more enjoyable than the average witches' cookbook. Roséan's multicultural formulas have no-nonsense titles like "Catch a Rich Husband," "Spell to Kill Your Boss" and "Spell to Keep Your Pants On." Most can be executed with items readily available in the supermarket—no eye of newt here. To prove their efficacy, the author supplies anecdotes detailing outrageous (and sometimes unintended) results. A perfect guide for results-oriented weekend witches. (Oct.)
