Very informative in an informal way. Solid information and a good jumping off point for making a magical home.

This was a pleasant read. I was left a little underwhelmed; it felt very much like a modern "witchcraft 101" book with a focus on the home. My favourite chapters were probably the first two and the last, where there was expanded discussion on what it means to have a home honouring practice and what it means to be a witch in today's society. The rest was relatively uninspiring and fully of crafts and recipes; this is fine, but not what I was hoping for.

I honestly really enjoy books like this. I wasn't overly familiar with goddess Hestia, so it was interesting to read more about her. The book includes recipes, spell work, exercises you can use for each room of your house. It also includes mythology, history and facts that added even more to my enjoyment. I can't wait to try some of the recipes and techniques presented here.

Really good introduction to Hestia, home witchery, and activism
Also brought up the covid-19 pandemic a few times.

I felt although this book was about working with Hestia, it was more basic home/domestic magic then specific workings with Hestia. I know Hestia doesnt have a lot of myths and is considered ~mysterious~ but I was kinda hoping for more of a working guide with her. Instead I felt she got the first chapter or two and then was mentioned here and there. Not that this was a bad read! Just more basic home magic then specific Hestia. Just my opinion.

An excellent little book filled with household magic in connection to Hestia as the goddess of the heart and home. The book also touches on a range of subjects that can fall under Hestia and align with current world affairs. I really liked this book and want to attain a physical copy to add to my spellbook library.
