Reviews for "Celebrating Yule the Witchy Way: Recipes and Rituals for Winter Solstice"
- John - 2 stars - I was really excited to try out some witchcraft inspired yule recipes but was extremely disappointed with this book. The recipes were not well-explained and some of the ingredients were just too hard to find. The author also didn't provide any background or explanation on the witchcraft aspect, making it feel like a desperate attempt to cash in on a trend. Overall, it was a letdown and I wouldn't recommend it.
- Sarah - 1 star - I wish I could give this book zero stars. The recipes were a disaster! Most of them were overly complicated and required ingredients that are not easily accessible. The instructions were unclear and some steps were missing altogether. It felt like the author just slapped together a bunch of random recipes without any consideration for the readers. Save your money and find a different cookbook.
- Emily - 3 stars - As someone who enjoys cooking and practicing witchcraft, I was excited to see a book combining the two. However, I found the recipes in this book to be lacking in flavor and originality. They seemed like basic recipes with some arbitrary witchy ingredients thrown in without any real purpose. I was hoping for more creativity and unique flavors. The book also lacked depth in explaining the magic behind the ingredients or rituals to accompany the recipes. Overall, it fell short of my expectations.
