This book had an overview of many of the main divination techniques including tarot, palmistry & crystals. I thought it great for a beginner and some sections were very detailed.

I thought some aspects such as the tarot could possibly have been a mini book of its own so that it could be more detailed.

A very informative book!
As someone who's just starting researching about all of this, study all the tarot and divination, this book by Liz Dean was just so very helpful! Her writing is smooth, and everything is very explainative. The part about the crystal reading with all the crystal summary with photos and all was very good since I’m not very in the known still about them!

I would like to thank Netgalley and Fair Wind Press for the chance to read and review this book!

I enjoyed the The Divination Handbook. I was able to learn about a variety of traditions that have been used and still are still used today. I like the the illustrations as they were very helpful. I will say this is just a starter. There are several modes i want to look into more and really learn about their history and how to use them.

Very very helpful and thorough. Would recommend to others if they were looking to learn about this subject. I like how the chapters are broken up. This is definitely a book I can keep referring to over and over.

This book was absolutely beautiful, with pictures of Crystal's as well as cleansing, at tuning, using, etc. It was extremely informative and I greatly enjoyed it.

Such a wonderful introduction to the major forms of divination. This is a great launchpad to help you discover what area you are most drawn to, or if you are already familiar with one i.e. tarot and are looking to add a second form of divination to your arsenal. Liz Dean covers the basics and gives you enough to start practicing and experimenting with tarot, runes, scrying, numerology, tea leaves, palmistry and crystals. Overall, I enjoyed this very much.

I absolutely loved this book on divination!😍 It has all that a beginner needs to start down the path of divination. This handbook is also perfect for those whom already dabble in the practice as well. Highly recommended!😍

A great basic to all divination. The author has included information on tea reading, palm reading, pendulum, tarot, and more. This is a great book for beginners and those who are seeking further teachings. I enjoyed reading it and found a lot to learn from this book.
It is a helpful guide for everyone that is choosing a path to study and become proficient on.
Thank you for the advance reading copy. My opinion is my own .

Handy guide to crystals, palmistry, tarot, and more, with plenty of diagrams, photos, and illustrations for all your divination needs. Pictures in the ARC I reviewed look kind of low-res, but I'm hoping that's just the PDF file and they'll look better printed.

The Divination Handbook is a really good guide for starting divination - whether it be focusing on Runes, Pendulum, tarot readings or others. It offers advice in order to begin working with these tools and the best way to cleanse them.

This is particularly good for those who are looking into practising and playing around with divination, or have started using a certain tool but want more knowledge to help them progress and feel more comfortable.
I found this handbook to be especially helpful as I had just started using tarot cards and was having some difficulty with my confidence.
Even Liz's section on the Pendulum (which I've been using for a year now) had some useful knowledge that I've been able to apply.

This easy to read handbook gives wonderful descriptions and beautiful photographs. From beginner to more experienced, I believe this book can be guiding at all levels of divination practice. You are given fundamental meanings and helpful descriptions throughout each chapter with a clear focus on crystals, palmistry, and tarot. Most helpful may be that you are given a lot of information easily found in one place.
