Beltane: Rituals, Recipes & Lore for May Day by Melanie Marquis

3.0

I read this book particularly to refresh my memory on Beltane practices I'd forgotten from when I was growing up since I've been atheist for roughly half my life at this point. This was a good refresher for a novel I'm brainstorming, particularly thanks to the Old Ways and New Ways sections, but the prayers and invocations section was a little worrying considering this is aimed at beginners. Otherwise, a decent primer for casual or new pagans, especially if you're looking for some family-friendly crafts to celebrate the holiday. I myself might consider bringing back the secular May basket.
