Sorry for possible English mistakes in writing!
Even for less then 10 minute one will be able to do some practical magical operations and to aply some of the ideas from this very lucid book! Even just by casual reading one will be able to feel some of the benefits from these occult spells. Very good book! Thanks to Fair Winds Press and NetGalley!!!

This was very interesting to me. I have no desire really to do any of these spells, but it was fun to read about what is involved. Very good for a beginner or just a casual reader.

I really adore this cover. It's kind of ominous, but draws you in at the same time. It definitely feels a bit witchy. There are illustrations throughout the book that keep it engaging. The writing is straightforward without being condescending. It is broken down into two parts, and it strongly advises you read the first part before going onto part two where the actual spells are. It gives a great overview of what is going to be needed and what you, as a person, need to do to prepare. I, personally, haven't tried the spells though, so I don't know if they actually work. I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars. A great book for a beginner.

Curiosity brought me to this book. Other than being fascinated with magick and practitioners, I have no other authority to provide a critical reference.

If you are a practitioner, this guide seems to have it all. It's like a little recipe book for magick with items you need to cast a spell and when you should do it as well as finding the right frame of mind. It covers a wide range of spells.

Thanks to Quarto Publishing for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Informative, easy to read, straight to the point - a great handbook for learning about the underlying ideas, tools, and rituals of magic.

I am a newbie so this book was a great and easy introduction to the magic world.
I particularly appreciate the parts involving crystals and essential oils, with their different powers and uses.
A great introduction to the practice, easy to ready and full of tips and ideas!

I really enjoyed this book and found it very insightful about magic and practicing spells. It would be a great introduction into this topic and it was full of so much great information. I really liked how the book was organized as it made it easy and enjoyable to read. As someone who has an interest in these type of books I would definitely want this on my self as a good reference book. to look back on. The spells were all really interesting and ranged from basic to more advance which I really liked. Thank you to NetGalley and to Quarto publishing for a chance to review this book before its release.

What a gem! This book is sure to be a great resource for those interested in bringing magick into their lives. What I really liked about this book is that the spells are practical and easily doable. No long list of hard to acquire ingredients, simple, concrete instructions and right to the point spells make up the bulk of this book. The author does a great job in differentiating the days of the week, cycles of the moon, colors and steps to preform these spells. 10-Minute Magic Spells is a quick read and not filled with bias from a particular practice. Although the author does state her wiccan beliefs in the beginning of the book, she does not interject them throughout. I loved the wide range of basic information provided in areas such as tarot spells, sigil spells, amulets and astrological correspondence. This long practicing witch found some nuggets to add to her BOS and will likely find herself gifting this book to others..

A very good book, very useful for both beginners and more experienced users.
I like Skye Alexander style of writing and how she manage to deliver a clear and engaging book.
It's full of interesting ideas and hints.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

I'll be honest, I've never been a huge believer in magic - though I do try to keep an open mind, and I do believe in luck and the possibility of higher power(s). That said, I probably won't be actually trying any of these spells anytime soon (also because, despite the disclaimer that you don't need special tools or ingredients to perform spells, few of the included spells can actually be done without gathering specific things that I don't happen to have on hand); they do seem simple enough, and almost all are definitely doable in 10 minutes or fewer.

The writing is straightforward and appealingly conversational, which I do like. However, there are a lot of seemingly arbitrary historical / linguistic / scientific facts - they kind of serve as introductory sentences for the section, but their relevance isn't expanded upon. And speaking of relevance, the illustrations throughout this book are pretty but don't really seem to serve much purpose beyond decoration. Superficially they're related to the passages around them, though for the most part they don't add to the reader's understanding (though in some places they could, for example when describing sigils and runes) and in fact kind of break up the flow of information. So again, they're aesthetically pleasing, but not well incorporated.

One of my biggest pet peeves has always been "See my other book for more details about [topic being discussed]" - especially in a guide that's supposed to be accessible! I do understand the desire for brevity and focusing on the main ideas, but if these details are really as important as the author claims, then they should be included for the reader's convenience.

I'm so sorry but I have no way to read this book. It is an epub book and nothing that I downloaded works. I wished for this because I thought it would be a KIndle version. I apologize but from what I was able to view on other websites, this book looks adorable.

A very interesting and enlightening book even if you don't believe in the subject of spells. Great for beginners and well written.

This is what you think it is. If you want more knowledge on this kind of stuff like I do then should read this right away.

A very sweet little book full of some lovely ideas for spells and magical rituals to use for a million different reasons. Easy to use and nicely laid out. I’m off to buy a broom as we speak.

A wonderful introduction to new age/wicca/witchcraft/paganism however you see it or call it. This is a wonderful little book for the beginner, well organised, clearly explained and appealing in design and content. A great introduction and even a good refresher maybe if you hadn’t practiced in awhile
