This was a great book for beginners who are interested in spells and developing their craft. I especially appreciated the first half of the book which went into more detail about individual herbs, elements, oils and incense and what their uses are. The chapter on creating your own spells and what you should include in your own grimoire/book of shadows was very clear and helpful. I will say this is not a definitive guide to spells and magic but the author herself states that it is simply a book of suggestions that have worked for others, and you should always follow your own intuition for what works for you.
Overall it has good basic information but some of the rituals, for example, are very traditional. Good book for beginner witches but maybe not for modern witches, who prefer quick and simple magick.
when i read a "book of spells" this is exactly what i want. this book doesn't contain any baneful magic which i am more than happy about as baby witches stumble upon lots of misinformation and can find themselves partaking in magic that is dangerous and destructive when not correctly done. this book makes sure to tell you everything to do for your altar, setting up your white circle, and it has a spell for almost everything. not only is this about spells, it contains candles, herbs, incense, oils, etc.. i am in love with this book because the spells are very trustworthy and support a spell with information about days of the week to do it on, and more.

This is a great little book to dip into when the mood takes you. It's jam-packed with fabulous nuggets, including how to attract people and how to freeze them out!! Lots of good insight into the use of essential oils and colour too, so a big nod to vibrational medicine. It's on my go-to shelf for quick reference.
