5.0 out of 5 stars it's not wise to cross a witch, November 7, 2000

By 

Joan Doutre (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Little Book of Hexes for Women (Hardcover)

I only got a chance to flip through this book. But I thought it was brilliant. Some folks need to be put in thier place and words don't always do the trick. Cat callers need to learn that it's not cool to harrass us chicks on the street. Folks shouldn't borrow stuff without returning it. Not all folks follow the codes of common courtesy. I'm beginning to see hexes as a means for protecting one's self. Setting psychic boundaries, is a more PC way to phrase it. I found this book both fun and amusing, I'd recommend it for a witch who's in tune with her dark side but who's more intent on teaching someone a lesson than causing one to suffer. Whether or not you actually use these spells, I think that just reading this book would be theraputic if you feel wronged. It's written with a sense of humor...and should cheer you up.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hex what?, May 16, 2006

By 

Boudica (Ohio USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Little Book of Hexes for Women (Hardcover)

Here is another of those little books off the discount shelf that called me to review it. I'm always up for a good old fashioned Book of Hexes.

But I am disappointed. First of all, no Table of Contents. Second, no index. So this is a "hunt through and see if what you are looking for is in here" book. Messy and time consuming. I like my books to have at least a Table of Contents, so I can find what I am looking for in a hurry.

So I started leafing through the book. Again, big disappointment. First Hex- "Hex to Humble Techno Snobs". Hmmm... someone has issues with people who know more about computers than they do. Even the incantation is a bit... off. And it tends to go on and on.

OK, moving right along, we have a hex "For People Who Always Tell the Ends of Movies or Books". How droll. This person needs to find some new folks to hang with. Where are the real hexes?

Next one is "A Spell for People Who Always One-Up You". Gee, this person has some serious people issues to work out, doesn't she? Personally, so far, these folks are not worth the energy to do a hexing on. I went on and started looking for a real "meat and potatoes" type of hex on someone who really deserves it.

There is one for "Someone who Cuts You Off on the Road". Beep your horn, make the sign of the horns and a lame incantation. Honk the horn to send the hex. Hmmmm... very lame.

"To Banish a Troublesome Co-Worker or Acquaintance" she does "doll magic" with a paper doll. Novel but the incantation again is lame. Interesting use of "doll magic" but it needs a little punch.

Seems some of the situations in this book suggest using a hex rather than calling 911 or seeing a lawyer. Sexual Harassment is a court case with a large cash settlement in my book. Stalkers are more repelled by a court restraining order than by a hex. Or use both, and make sure your hex involves specific body parts.

The hexes in this book lack real punch. The author's incantations limp in some places, stretch for a rhyme in others. Unruly neighbors should get a call to 911, not a hex. A couch potato should be dumped off the couch and told to move - to another house. A hateful letter deserves more than ashes and a feather returned to sender. It deserves at least a real poison pen letter in return.

And now I pass this along to you, so you don't make the same mistake. This book is not worth it at any price. Not even as a give away or a joke.

As for a hex on someone who sells a bad book, nope, not really worth it. But it does rate a review, which in this case is my "hex" on this book. boudica
