This was so good! No, I really mean it, it was really, really good.
In depth and very respectful. I think I found another favourite Author.
2020 is good so far!

Let me start off by thanking Llewellyn Publications and Net Galley for giving me the opportunity to review this book, and wow, what a book! I read a lot, and I do mean a lot, and not every book I read makes it to my blog for a review. In fact, I have read 14 books so far this year, well over my original goal of 12. The Book of Hedge Druidry: A Complete Guide for the Solitary Seeker by Joanna van der Hoeven is one of the best books I have read all year, especially if you are a hedgewitch. While this book focuses on Druidry, I highly recommend it to my fellow hedgewitches, whether you are just starting out or have been practicing for a while.

It was interesting to know about Druidry and Pagan religions and the many aspects of nature and myths within it. I'm sure it'll be very helpful for anyone who wants to be in this religion or is already a Druid and wants to know more.
Another thing I loved the most are the mini stories after each chapter. If the author would write a fiction based on Druidry, I'm honestly going to be very interested in reading it.
However, there are two things that bothered me. First is that there were a few grammatical mistakes especially with the commas. Second is that a lot of information are repeated many times which grew a bit tiring. Maybe it was to me, since I'm not seeking to change to this religion and maybe it'll have more resonance to anyone who plans to be a Druid.
Completely unrelated to the book but I haven't read the ritual and prayer parts since it's against my religion to do so.
Thank you Netgalley for providing me with the digital copy for an honest review.

A very fascinating and informative read. I learned a lot about this tradition that I didn't know and got some interesting food for thought.
The book is well written and I liked the clear explanations and the style of writing.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
