Pretty much exactly what's in the title. Practical- the vast majority of this book is exercises lined up to break down various common magical practices. There's no direct annotations, but there is a bibliography in the back that shows where you can get more information. This isn't the book to go to for the theoretical, or for specific traditions, but if you want to jump in and do? This is a pretty good jumping off point. I liked it.
Good read, covers the basics of magic for beginners. The reading is simplified and down to earth. Provides hands on practices from aura reading, self protection and safety, plus quite a few full rituals to try.

This is a good resource for a beginner. I’d definitely say this shouldn’t be your first book nor your last. It covers a variety topics briefly—mainly focusing on the law of attraction/visualization and affirmations. If you’re a seasoned witch, this might be a good one to pass. There’s nothing that makes this a “must read” regardless of your mileage in the craft. However, those just starting out and craving more information will likely find this helpful and a great starting point for further research.
I recently started getting into an actual magical practice. I've had an interest in it for years but never but never seriously practiced it. Since a lot of books on magic can be pretty esoteric, I wanted bare bones basic book to give me a general idea of where to start. Practical Magic for Beginners did a nice job of that. It begins with short exercises designed to improve focus and direct your energy works up to some basic rituals that you can personalize and make your own.
The instructions and writing are straightforward and easy to follow, though I could have done with some more illustrations as I am not a particularly visual thinker. It doesn't dive particularly deep into particular types of magical practice bu that's to be expected. I would have liked some references to different books or websites for those who wanted to study more about a particular type of magical practice. It did have some good tips. I have no started a magical journal which I add to daily and I am doing the basic exercises referenced in the beginning.
If you're interested in started a magical practice or just curious about magic in general, this book is a great way to dip your toe in the waters. It also gives you some great hands-on activities you can do to get started.
This was an interesting book that is quite knowledgeable and interesting for the beginner, but for those who may have experience with this subject, they may find the book repeating more information that they already know. Nonetheless, it is a good beginners book.
Honnêtement, le pire livre sur le sujet que j'ai lu jusqu'à maintenant. Il est fade dans sa présentation et dans son contenu. Brandy Williams semble faire une fixation sur le tantra et les informations fournies ne sont pas utiles. Épargnez-vous cette lecture.
"excellent beginners book that focus on the mind behind the magic and magical energy. Approachable and nonjudgemental for many paths. Deserves a better cover and a place in every magic users library"
