Book Review of The Frog Prince by Edith Tarcov

I low key disliked this book and it’s message, did it even have a message? Kind of offensive and not sure why this has become a classic children’s story.

Book Review of Lunar Abundance by Ezzie Spencer

Lunar Abundance = regulating life through observation of the moons monthly cycles, and eight phases, which contains universal wisdom about the Yin mode of being and the Yang mode of operating. Mentioned benefits = improved menstruation, peace, effectiveness, gentle transformation, self knowledge and acceptance, connection to self and others.

Book Review of Season of the Witch by Sarah Rees Brennan

Overall I was a bit disappointed in this book, but still wanted to finish it. I felt like it did not have much of a plot and nothing exciting or interesting really happens until the end. I did enjoy the way the story was told, the level of detail helps to give rich visuals. It was cute and a good read, but I was expecting more.

Book Review of Tunnel of Bones by Victoria Schwab

This story picks up where the first book left off, making them flow well together. I loved this story! I read it in about a day I just couldn’t put it down.

Book Review of To Drink Coffee with a Ghost by Amanda Lovelace

Autumnal vibes poetry about grief, life after loss, family, and rebuilding a life. I found this short poetry book to be deeply emotional, I cried a couple times, laughed out loud, and felt my heart go along a journey of growth with the author.

Book Review of The Modern Guide to Witchcraft by Skye Alexander

I feel this book is created for beginner pagans and witches who do not have, or have not read many other beginner books. If you purchased this book just for the spells because you found those intriguing, then it would be more than just a beginner book, as it has many chapters of spells. The book covers all the normal basics, such as a brief history, lists of correspondences, tools, altar and shrine set up, different paths of witchcraft, Gods and Goddesses, plants and crystals, and more. However none of these topics are discussed in much depth.
