It is more of a reference book. If you like magic and witch craft this is a very good book. It is good for beginners as well. Mot...
I was given a copy of this book by Netgalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.Although I've always been interested in spiritualism and it's various practices, this was the first time I've read an actual book about it.
