I have two. One is for my experiences and observations in magick and astral travel. This is my personal one that I let no one touch. My most personal rituals go here as well.
The other is a collection of information on herb/tree meanings; stone meanings; sigils and other amulets; element correspondences; recipes for powder, vinegar, inks, etc; general spells I've made or old ones I've acquired; moon phases; and the list goes on. This is my family grimoire.
Then I have a third, that is nothing but alternative medicine and herbalism.

Right now, I have two.
One is an idea a friend of mine and I had that we would only add to it when we were together - things we experienced together, things we've learned from our experiences together, spells we did together, drawings we did together, etc. Basically, anything that happens when we get together goes into these books.
The other one is my personal one that I'm trying to transfer from files on my computer to a semi-handwritten version. The personal one so far has symbols that mean something to me, a book blessing and the Wiccan Rede. I'm redoing the organisation of it so I can include a section for The Basics. The plan for this is that it's going to have: A book blessing, the Wiccan Rede, the Basics, Correspondence Charts, Spells and Rituals, Tarot readings, Pendulum circles and records of the communications, dreams/experiences/visions, song lyrics/chants that mean something to me (possibly accompanied by pictures or descriptions of the images they invoke for me), alphabets (I have a thing with alphabets...), a section for journal type entries, short stories, poems, and a humor section.
As of right now, my personal BoS is a collection of files on my computer.

mine is mostly made up of magic, spells, quotes or things that i like that people write about wicca too. I sometimes write letters to some deities and stuff. :)
Pretty fancy books some of you have got there... my book is rather simple. 2-basic sections--spells done and spells to do. If spells done have worked, then they get a star. That's all
