Lindsay Squire's The Witch's Book of Spells: Simple Spells for Everyday Magick is an excellent entry point into the world of magick, crafted with care for both beginners and experienced practitioners. This guide is filled with practical, empowering insights, all presented in a straightforward and engaging manner. The spells are designed to be both practical and accessible, seamlessly integrating magick into everyday life.

A major strength of this book is its user-friendly nature. The clear and direct writing style makes it easy for newcomers to grasp the basics of magick and spellcasting. The charming and inviting cover, along with the beautifully complementary interior illustrations, enhance the overall reading experience.

Loved the graphics, the simplicity of it and how it makes it easily accessible to people with simple ingredients lists and steps.
Definitely would buy this!

I picked this book after a rewatch of "Practical Magic", the cult movie that is reportedly being revived for a modern take. For a curious dabbler this book is a great entry point, with really beautiful graphics and "spells" with an emphasis on grounding and energy - with the whole thing feeling akin to a wellness ritual. It also covers a wide variety of life instances, family, abundance, career, health and relationships. It acts more like a manual/textbook and while I didn't read it cover to cover, it was a fun book to have on hand for a tongue-in-cheek solution to fix my friend's love life!

I own several grimoires and books of spells, and this one has quickly become a staple in my collection. Its organization is impeccable, making it incredibly easy to navigate and find the information I need.

The "Before You Begin" chapter is particularly valuable, offering a great refresher for seasoned practitioners and an excellent starting point for newcomers.

I highly recommend this book to both new and experienced users who are seeking an accessible, easy-to-read spell book filled with practical and useful information.

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC of this cute baby-witch book! This was an interesting read as someone who has never dabbled in witchcraft. Everything was easily laid out and (if I ever find the time) I would definitely try it out. :)

I absolutely loved the simplicity in the writing style of the spells.
Having read a number of books on Magick over the years this was a great refresher.

I loved how easy it was to read, I loved how everything was layed out and the graphics were adorable.

I didn't love the front cover but I can understand why it would draw new people in.

I great collection of simple spells. That does not mean that hey aren’t powerful, just they they are really accessible to more people, something which it a great thing, as witchcraft really can be practiced by everyone!

"The Witch's Book of Spells" is an accessible and user-friendly guide, perfect for both beginners and experienced witches. The book starts with a helpful section that addresses common questions, making it an excellent resource for those new to spellcasting. It features a wide variety of seasonal spells, ensuring you have the right spell for every time of the year. Additionally, other spells are organised into practical sections, allowing for easy navigation and quick reference. This book is a valuable addition to any library, providing reliable guidance whenever needed!

I've followed Lindsay on Instagram for a long time, and I was so excited to see that she'd written a book of spells. This book is well-organized by different topics (love, career, family, protection, etc.), and also by seasons and moon phases. There are so many spells and rituals, and most use easy-to-find ingredients. The correspondence section at the end is also helpful for those who want to mix and match ingredients but keep the essence of a spell. This would be a great resource for any witchy person looking for a general selection of spells and rituals.

The Witch's Book of Spells by Lindsay Squire Is a great book for a beginner witch that needs a well written book. The information about rituals and spells is very informative and the illustrations are wonderful. I will need to get a copy when this book is published for my own use and to share with others.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the free copy in exchange for an honest review.

First, I loved how easily this spell book was written - spells were well written and easy to do. I loved the pictures and how much color was in them and I also really loved how this book was such an easy read for me to get through I could easily read through some of the Spells and see if I had done the ingredients and see if I needed to do that spell at this time it's a super simple spell book to have on your shelf and I appreciated that as a baby witch and I have plans on possibly buying this for my witchcraft shelf this year.

I like this book.
The format and layout are nice.
The instructions are easy to understand.
Hope my library gets it.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Lindsay Squire delivers another excellent book for beginner witches. The layout is simple and informative and the illustrations are cute.

This book is well organized, informative, and contains a lot of good information for those like myself who have always fancied ourselves a bit witchy.

I really enjoyed the way the author used different sections to organize her workings, and I took notes on many of them to try in future. I really loved her vivid explanation of the grounding ritual and the way her workings are truly about centering and focusing your energy. I also loved the section at the end about all the different correspondences for the crystals, herbs, days of the week, and more, so helpful! I am looking forward to trying some of her workings for myself!

I am very interested in witchcraft so this book immediately caught my eye. I really liked that in the beginning of the book, it explained what spells and rituals were and information on casting spells etc. I also really liked that the spells/rituals were separated by category so it was easy to know which to use. I can definitely see myself using some of these in the future and I want to buy the physical copy to have on hand.

Whimsical and witchy, I enjoyed this quick read that is original and magical that weaves together modern craft with history of spell work. A lovely, cozy read great for curling up with a blanket with.

Thank you NetGalley for this arc in exchange for honest review.

This was a wonderful book of simple spells and rituals for easy everyday magick. This contains spells for seasons and sabbats, moon magick; money, prosperity, and abundance; career and job ambitions; success and happiness; protection; well-being, and so much more. These spells and rituals use simple ingredients that can easily be found in your kitchen or at your local store.

Squire has compiled a great collection of simple spells that are easy to follow and find the ingredients for. I really appreciate providing spells that are relatively simple to do, like less than 10 steps, because I don’t have a lot of time to do big fancy spells or rituals. There was also a great variety in the types of spells that were included (i.e. jar, candle, tea, etc.).

Overall, if you are looking for a great beginner book of spells or just more simple spells to do, I highly recommend this book.

A nice little book of Spells.
Spells we're laid our nice and clear with a good explanation of when to use and how to carry out to get the best results.
I haven't tried any of the Spells just yet but am looking forward to seeing the results when I do.

The Witch’s Book of Spells is a solid introduction to spell-casting guide as well as an excellent resource for any witch’s bookshelf. A LOT of different types of magic are covered including: ritual guides, crystal grids, tarot spreads, and spells across a range of subjects. Admittedly there are certain types of spells outlined in this book I don’t and wouldn’t ever practice, but there are way more that I would and am interested in.

The Witch’s Book of Spells has a first chapter that is super basic that any reader of this type of book will recognize to help new witches find their way. Beyond that the book dives deeper into specific magic. The strongest sections are on seasons, which has rituals and recipes side-by-side which I think any kitchen witch would have fun trying out, and the last correspondences section which serves as a reference for witch’s to cast spells of their own creation.

This is a book I’d come back to reference many times.

I LOVED this book! A fun introduction to spells to bring some magic to everyday life. Great selection of manifestation, healing and everyday magick. A big plus is the section in the back which shares the meanings of different herbs, crystals and colours to help those starting their journeys

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5 stars
