So many issues. Not only is there a constant heteronormative romantic love focus, but SO MANY TYPOS. See my full review on my blog.

There is a spell in this book that includes using essential oils near pets, don't do this, it could be dangerous. I find this book to be charming because it's a spell book from the 1990s, but overall, I could not recommend this book. Most of the spells are questionable or not worth your time.

A more light hearted insight into magic including spells for massage oils and sweet treats, more suited to your occasional witch rather than true witches, wiccans and other practitioners. This book does make a pleasant gift and does add a little fun to life, which is no bad thing.

Pretty basic...contains all the right ingredients by which to manipulate people in to loving you...not really worth the ink it's written in...
