A fun little self-help book for all women, young and old, witch or not.
'Basic Witches: How to Summon Success, Banish Drama, and Raise Hell with Your Coven' is funny, accessible and not too light. It can help anyone with issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, low self-confidence, self-pity, abusive friendships and other relationships, fear of failure, grief, breakups, and more. It is not nearly as aggressive as its title might suggest, though the authors, Jaya Saxena and Jess Zimmerman, delight in teaching women not to give a shit about what other people think of them. Really, all it's about is casting simple spells in order to help you boost your confidence and stay focused at any stage in your life.
This witchy product is as good as any mainstream magazine. How I wish I had something like it in my teens!
Also included are witch history excerpts, and a list of the authors' favourite fictional witches who inspired them.
'Basic Witches' might not be super-serious about magic, mysticism or anything to do with Wicca in its religious meaning, but it's still a fun, therapeutic pocketbook for anyone remotely interested in witchcraft or living like a witch to have around. After all, "witch" is just another word for "rebel woman", in every sense. It stands for happy women, and sisterhood. Let's take back the word "witch" with pride!
Happy Halloween!
Final Score: 5/5
