I was not impressed with this book. I could not finish it, as it just did not provide me with much that stuck with me. I do realize that every book is not for everyone. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review. Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on my review.

This is a great book for the beginner looking for a guide to Tarot Cards. The illustrations are well done and the explanations are easy to understand. Ms Wiggan uses the Ryder Waite deck in her pictures and interpretations. The book is divided into two parts; tarot reading and how to give readings and part two gives card meanings and how to explain them in readings. I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review.

As a pagan witch, interested in a little of everything, naturally...I had to read this. I would love to begin reading tarot. This book is a fantastic beginner guide to helping one do that!

This is a good beginner's guide to reading tarot that can also be useful for intermediate tarot readers. My spouse is well-versed with tarot cards but still found a lot of value within this book. The author put together a nice intro to the entire topic, along with instructions on how to use tarot cards to learn more about yourself and enhance your intuitive skills.

All of the cards are discussed, providing a very nice base of knowledge for those who aren't familiar with their individual meanings. There are also some beginner's tarot spreads and a very handy reference chart in the back that will make it much easier to memorize the key details about each card.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing a review copy. This review contains my honest, unbiased opinion.

I have several books on how to read tarot. However, this might be my favorite of them because it truly is the best. It is beautiful. Easy to navigate between how to read the Tarot, and then also the meanings of the cards. I have six sets of Tarot cards including the Ryder Waite deck that is used in this book and that made this even more enjoyable. One of my frustrations with trying to learn tarot is having to bounce around with so many other books to get the meaning. I didn't have to do that with this book.

Beautiful book and one that I will definitely get in paperback.

Rats! This book was archived before I sent it to my kindle. I’ll look for a physical copy when it comes out.

I've always wanted to learn how to read Tarot and the longing for it has been especially pressing recently. The only problem is that I have no idea where to start, how to start, no clue what any of these cards mean.
Sigh. My life.
This book is great however! It teaches you all of the basics of Tarot and reading the cards and also provides you pictures on which card is which.
I like how bright and witty the book is as well because it made for a nice read and a guide for when and if ever you want to dabble in some of these tarot arts.

Thank you very much Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this title! Now please, settle down and get ready to have your life laid out like Yu-gi-oh cards.
