Wasn't What I Was Looking For

This was a boring read. Just basic detailed information that I already knew. Nothing in the book made it stand out.

[Aleta]

I'm not sure how to rate this book, and so I just may not. It was an interesting quick read, but I am not its audience.

[Jamie Gibbons]

Interesting read

The world of Hoodoo is completely new to me and to be honest i had not heard of it before getting this book. I was intrigued to understand what it was and what it involved. The author explained this very well and with some of the spells made it very interesting to read. I enjoyed the learning aspect but Hoodoo is not something I could practise myself. But thank you for the lesson in history and culture.

Learned Something New

Good reading 📚 have not learned something new in a book for a while. If your a beginner looking to learn start here I'm not really hard core when it come to practices I stick to innocence and candles. But the history and knowledge is very practical it will ease the fear of Hoodoo.

Miss Moon's Hoodoo Guide
This is a great beginner's book on Hoodoo, Miss Moon has written well on the history, practice, and spell work of Hoodoo. This is a nice addition of my mystical library.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

It was ok but not what I was looking for.

Good place to start

I’m glad I got this book because I’ve wanted to read up on Hoodoo for a long time now. This is a good place to start.

Absolute bait and switch on this one. The content of the book is not at all what is claimed by the book description or even the title!

I picked this up out of curiosity, and not out of belief, but I like to keep an open mind about spiritual things. Still, with virtually no expectations, I was disappointed.

This is not a book of spells. There are literally no spells in it at all. Zero.
Arguably, it isn't a book either. This is the kind of thing that people give away for free if you subscribe to their newsletter.

There is no "easy and effective rootwork", or rootwork at all.

All it is is the author saying that she found spirituality after a bad relationship, and seeing a friend in a bad relationship. She then discusses how the universe can send you signs, such as numbers that appear (i.e. 911, as mentioned herein), and then a list of guiding angels is provided.
The work discussed here is passing mention, without any specifics, of focusing on talking to the universe or to your angels.

That's it.

The title of the book is not just misleading, but flat out false. The brief description is the same.

It looks, judging by the reviews, like MAYBE there was a different book prior to 2022, but then we got this instead, likely keeping the old title to capitalize on views and ratings.

[Kyle Meek]

The book was a bit of a let down, while the author offers an interesting perspoective on the mechanics and ethics of magickal practice it lacks ther very thing the title promises, spells. I could not find really any worthwhile information on hoodoo spellcraft that would validate the title of the book. In fact the book feels like it's more of a personal take on the mechanics of spiritual practices and magick but whole that may be interesting, a spell book it does not make. The title and the genre of the book should be changed and reflect the actual information the book provides, because at the moment a "Hoodoo Book of Spells for Beginners" does not match the material within.

[Kendra Raptor]

The Hoodoo Book of Spells for beginners is a very well written and informative book, but the title is VERY misleading.

There were no “Spells for Beginners”, but the information it did give was very insightful and cleared some things up for me. I’ll be able to practice the tips and tricks that were provided and start my journey.

It is a 2 for me, because the misleading title and no real direction that there might be a book of Spells for Beginners that *should have been added to the book.

*if there is any…

Great enlightenment

I enjoyed this book a lot as I’m on a new path onto healing and becoming the best version of myself day by day. Thank you for sharing this book with the great insights and new things to try and add onto my toolbox.

Title is misleading

This book has nothing to do with the title and mentions nothing of any of the African deities. 3 stars because it was interesting. But it is a book listing a few ways one may connect with the universe.

[Leighton]

informative

Not what I thought it was going to be, but very informative. Thought it was more going to be like a ‘cook book’ vibe, but still a good read for beginners wanting find out more information

[Joshua Durham]

Not really what I was expecting and hard to complete.

[Louise]

Written for beginners to Hoodoo, this is an introduction to the tradition written in an interesting and engaging style.

[Calantirniel]

Apparently this book is for literal beginners that haven't been studying magic(k) at all. I didn't learn anything new, unfortunately.

[Jasmine]

quick and insightful

I read this over a relaxing bath and it was very insightful! I will be continuing to check out Layla’s other books.

[Elizabeth Hill]

Easy to follow

I really enjoyed reading the book, and it covered everything in an easy way for anyone to understand and follow.

[Yvonne M Colache]

Quick & to the point read

This was a super fast read that covered a lot of different material in an easy to understand and comprehend manner.

[Kelly]

A decent and informative read!

[ANA RENATA]

[Parkway]

I wanted more. 😔

[Karen Reeves]

Good

Good book about how to begin connecting with the universe and your spirit guides. I did not see any spells in this book though.
