Chinese Folktales: An Anthology by Yin-lien C. Chin, Yetta S. Center and Mildred Ross

As far as books on folklore go, this is one that is easy to pick up and to take your time to read. Objectively a short book, the compilation of stories allows to read a story one by one if you lack the time to sit down for an extended period of time.
The only downside about the book is that if you're familiar with the stories it contains it may feel a bit lacking to read them, the story within the book I know the best is that of Sun Wukong and the retelling of his story just abruptly ends.

Gods And Goddesses: Hua Xian

Hua Xian is the goddess of flowers who is depicted with servants who carry baskets of water.

The Fool

The Fool is the first of the major arcana in tarot and personally one of the more interesting cards of the deck.

When The Fool appears upright in a reading it indicates a favourable time and the potential for new beginnings. It tells of a major decision.
In reverse the card warns to watch out and points towards thoughtless action. It is a warning of folly.

Immortal Sisters: Secret Teachings of the Taoist Women (Translated by Thomas Cleary)

Aside from the best known Daoist texts, the lesser known texts that are translated into English are typically directed towards men. Directed towards women, this makes the book interesting to look into  regardless of your gender and the notes within it can make the texts within its pages easier to understand.

The Forest In Folklore And Mythology by Alexander Porteous

As far as books go, the stories within its pages are plentiful but are so plentiful it'll be necessary to read through the book several times to help remember everything brought up in the book. Regardless of that this book makes for a great read due to its content, is right to the point to stating what the title says it's about and can make for a great book for someone who loves reading on folklore.

The Flood Myths of Early China by Mark Edward Lewis

As far as books go the author has done fantastically to make this one as academic as possible and the approach is well appreciated. The book is relatively short and a huge chunk of it is end notes which I imagine may annoy some people, but all the references to Chinese books within the book itself makes this book alone a great place to begin if you wish to know which ancient Chinese books to go to to read. 

On the subject matter itself the book proves to be a good starting point to learn some Chinese mythology, even if this is an obvious case of only being a small portion of the whole. Mixed in with the previously mentioned short length, this book makes for a great way to be showered with information and further personal interest in Chinese mythology and religion with the references books within its pages.

The Tao of Craft: Fu Talismans and Casing Sigils in the Eastern Esoteric Tradition by Benebell Wen

With all the Daoist texts translated into English and what is written about the religion there is a certain lack of books in English about the talismans done within the religious tradition. This book fixes that and with great detail, making it hard not to recommend.

Lengthy, lovingly filled with information and useful to those beginning in talismans this very book is one that should be read by those even just interested in Daoism as a religion.
