I wanted to love this one so much! I ADORE the overall concept of this book, and was able to purchase the paperback version. Unfortunately, the way the book is formatted makes it look like a quickly thrown-together Microsoft Word doc, rather than a finished product.
Reading out an already-prepared prayer or invocation for each day feels a bit like being told what to do, although I think the author fully intended to be helpful! I would have found this a more helpful tool and reference if the author had put together a daily correspondence list -- taking into consideration the themes of the season, month, day of the week, etc., and allowed the readers to use those themes to inspire their own prayers.
This might be a more helpful read for beginners, or those newly discovering Hekate and are interested in beginning work with her.
