Where can we find the Charmed books? I would like to start reading them, but my local library doesnt have them and the nearest bookstore that would possibly carry them is an hour and a half away...any other suggestions?

Sure, you can go to Amazon.com and order them online. They have a secure ordering system so you don't have to worry about credit card info being given out or anything like that.  At Amazon.com, they will ship for free when your order is 25.00 or more. I ordered 3 of my Charmed books from them and that totaled right around 25 and some change including tax and the books arived at my home within 3 to 5 days. And I think that you can go to barnesandnoble.com and order them from there too. |

www.half.com has them really really cheap. they are usually between 50 cents, and 4 dollars. I bought 4 of them last week and didn't pay more than 15.00 with shipping and handling. Just make sure you check the descriptions. Haha i almost ordered a harliquinn romance novel. Haha.

LOL.. that's pretty funny.. Wouldn't you have been surprised when you got the package and found that one of them was the Harlequin Romance novel... LOL
You sure would have been very mystified as to how that one had gotten in your basket.. ( if you hadn't noticed it before you checked out... ) lol

I thought Luck Be a Lady was very good. It had a pretty exciting plot. It wasn't my favorite Charmed novel but still a very good read.

Sounds like fun. I'll have to go looking for it. I can usually find them in the Teen Series section of Barnes & Noble's or Borders. That way you actually get to look at them before you buy them. This 51-year-old gets strange looks, looking through the Teen Series section, but I don't care; I want my Charmed books!!

I completely agree. The auther captured the character's essence's very well and the book had a pretty good plot to it.. It had lots of twists to it. I really liked the one witch that came to Phoebe and gave her all the scrolls to help with their fight with "mob" guys. It was so cool how the author had her magically put the words "Don't be affraid" or something like that, through to the inside view of the door so Phoebe would end up having to trust her.

oooooh ive read luck be a lady as a piper and leo lover i really loved the bit how she figured out it had been her who had sung the song he remembered when he was at war...... I loved that part about Piper singing that song in the nightclub 2 years before it even came out, while Leo was at war.. That was such a cool way to make a strong impression on a man with whom you have such a strong emotional and physical tie too. You know what I mean? I mean, if you remember way back in like season 2 or 3 when Phoebe had to go to the past during the 1920's and they ran the Speak Easy out of the Manor, and when Leo finally explained that he and Piper were soul mates and had been lovers in past lives. I just thought that was so cool and thaught that maybe in the book the author was trying to draw in to that little piece of Leo's and Piper's history with each other and tied the factoid of his favorite song back during the war, with Piper singing it when she and her sister's went back to the past with Cole. |

I suggest these books:
The Legacy of Merlin (Piper's love charm gone wrong will have you rolling)
Garden of Evil (very interesting, and it spotlights on Paige)
Dark Vengeance (very exciting, awesome plot)
Between Worlds (melting buildings? COOL!)
A Tale of Two Pipers (obviously all about Piper. Very funny)
Do not read Something Wiccan this Way Comes, because it aggrivated me very much. The author got all the basic Charmed facts wrong. ONLY DEMONS CAN THROW FIREBALLS!!! DUH!!!
