Magical and Inspirational
I loved being on this spiritual coming-of-age journey with Maia - character and author - weaving and unweaving the metaphorical spiderweb alongside her. That's the intimacy she creates with her writing - like you are right there with her. I was captivated by the vivid imagery and felt like I was learning new things all along the way - about herbal remedies and potions, yes, but about myself, too. One moment that struck me in particular - Maia's realization of her superpower: her intuition. She says: "This sort of plot twist would help me understand why I always ended up feeling like an outsider or outcast: it wasn't because I was damaged but because I was gifted!"Thanks, Maia Toll, for opening the door to a magical life - and inspiring me to perhaps even change my name to what/who I am or aim to be.Sincerely, Marina

This is a memoir, that describes the path to becoming who the author was meant to be.
It’s told in an engaging, almost conversational way, with interesting chapter headers dotted throughout, that each contain their own little bits of wisdom.
In a way, the headers were my favourite part of the story, but honestly, it was just an interesting read.
While you may or may not agree with, or resonate with the story told, it does showcase admirably, that path to wisdom that is supposed to be the journey for every woman.
The time the author spends in Ireland, is but a minuscule fraction at the end of the book, the story of how she came to find her way there is the bulk of the book. And within those pages you can find hard earned wisdom (looking back tends to do that for us!).
This isn’t really a how to book, and it doesn’t really help us to find the magic within our own selves, but what it does is show how a path isn’t always straight, and how sometimes little things work together to make that path.
A fascinating peek into the author’s life, this is a good book to read if you’re feeling a little lost, and are trying to find the magic within.
An enjoyable memoir, for fans of the author, and for magic seekers, it’s probably one you’ll want to reread for maximum enjoyment.
**
The book itself is beautifully bound, with a cover full of symbolism (Gallica roses, spiderwebs and hawthorn, with a rather poignant New York skyline), which I think is lovely. The paper is a decent quality, and the binding is good: running press did a nice job.
It’s almost an inch thick (including covers) and 215 pages, with fairly easy to read type.
