I love magic and have a huge library of books and dvds and I havent been able to find any books lately with practical magic. Im talking magic like Jay Sankey's dvds where everything is very practical and not cumbersome. I also just bought Approaching Magic and cannot find anything in there worth my time because it is overly complicated and requires absurd gimmicks and setup. I hate using gimmicks that are only used for one or two tricks that are not easy to carry around, unlike coin shells which I don't mind using. I also love to do close up magic with lots of different objects and I cant find anything that meets these requirements that I don't already have. Have I reached a point where I don't want anything or need anything because I have so much already? Feedback please
