I’m not sure why I like books about crystals so much, but this is a good directory with photography that is really well done. I like that this book includes instructions for choosing, cleansing, and storing crystals, making it a nice resource for a beginner--though it may be too basic for someone who is already somewhat experienced with crystals.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. All opinions are my own.

This will be a wonderful addition to crystal reference/guide. It’s full of information for beginners or just a refresher! It’s laid out beautifully and easy to navigate.

What a gorgeous book. It's easy to go through, to reference, to read (and read in parts.) This is a book I'd be proud to keep out on my table. I appreciate that anyone can pick this up, whether they are drawn to crystals or not, and find something from the book. This is a book I'l preorder to have in my own collection.
Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley for a digital ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

This is a beautifully organized and photographed book. I love the way the information is structured -- super easy to read and use, and it will be easy to reference as needed. The photographs are beautiful, and the art design is really well done on them. They provide good exemplars of the crystals that will help in identifying them within my collection. The information is good, and I also appreciate that it is succinct and easy to follow. Sometimes books on this topic can be unnecessarily wordy and dense, but this is very reader friendly. Just lovely all around!
