I was really excited for this book to arrive after reading the free excerpt online. But once I received it and continued reading, there was an everpresent tone that resounded of pretentious bitterness towards witches who practiced irresponsibly or incorrectly. While she may not be wrong, it was very off-putting, especially when I thought the author had so much to offer. While there were a few passages that gave me pause for a moment, in a good way, I was disappointed overall because of the bitter tone throughout, even in the end words. As a new witch seeking guidance, I was disappointed with the lack of content and her saying how important research was. Beautiful cover, but bitter inside.
