Great tips on spellwork, indeed a little book. Nothing divine here, no wheel of the year, just practical magic. Found some good ideas, works as a supplemental resource.

I’ve been really interested in witchcraft and what it actually means to be a witch recently. When looking online for books that I could read to help expand my knowledge, I came across this little charming book. I must admit that I instantly fell in love with the cover. It’s even more stunning in person. I bought the book as I was expecting it to be a really simple and easy way for me to understand witchcraft and how modern witches operate. And I got exactly that.

POSITIVES:
* easy to understand information
* easy to follow spell instructions
* calm & friendly tone throughout book
* helped me to understand more about the world of witchcraft
* looks adorable and has cute illustrations & quotes throughout
-
NEGATIVES:
* can feel a little "you SHOULD do this" every now and then (I've learnt that witchcraft is your own- it's what you make it and there aren't many things that you can do "the right way" or "the wrong way" because it's what YOU make it)
* would have been nice if the physical book itself was a little bigger :')

So while it’s true that this book isn't packed with information, it was still able to teach me a lot and if anything, it’s made me super excited to delve further into the world of witchcraft!
