Basic Witches (Book Review)


Basic Witches
written by Jaya Saxena & Jess Zimmerman is set to release later this year.

Quirk Books will release Basic Witches on August 29th with spells for success, beauty and love. Basic Witches is 208 pages of fun-filled content that gives you tips for becoming a better you. Some of the spells include curing what ails you--basically a list of herbs and remedies when you are under the weather which includes aloe vera, ginger & peppermint, cayenne and so forth. The book even includes a section that helps you become a fit witch with callisthenic exercises like stirring the cauldron and the broomstick. Readers will also get a small dose of witch history and a recap of some of pop culture's favorite witches.

Basic Witches isn't an occult type book by any sense but a collection of tips allowing readers to find inner and outer prosperity. I really loved the fun way Basic Witches used the witch culture to create a more entertaining read that allows you to stay fully immersed in every page of the book.

In the end, Basic Witches is an excellent book that puts a spell over its reader from start to finish. Basic Witches provides nourishment of the soul and puts readers on a spiritual path to a better understanding of their own lives. To learn more, visit the official Basic Witches website.

Jackson County Fair in Scottsboro, Alabama (Event Review)

The Jackson County Fair has invaded Scottsboro, Alabama for the week of October 7-11, 2014, but the event may be a waste of money for some.  The fair was the 79th annual showing and was presented by Kissel Entertainment. The event featured rides, exhibits, games and great (yet too expensive) food for attendees at the show. Families could have enjoyed a great time at the fair grounds, but the event wasn't cheap and it didn't feature some of the more prominent attractions like one would find at larger, state fairs and carnivals. The turn out very low in Scottsboro though, and many would think that this would make it easier to enjoy the event but not even small lines could help make the Jackson County event fun. The Jackson County Fair had over a dozen rides for all age groups. The fair's massive Ferris Wheel towered high in the sky and helped light up the event, while the Moby Dick ride and Gravitron also looked fearsome and stood tall even from a distance. Plenty of ...
