This is overall a great reference book for beginners. There's a lot of great information and lots of references for to learn more about this subject. Furie doesn't assume anything of the reader, so he gives very basic information that might seem obvious to some but very needed to others. He breaks things down well, so it's easy to follow and easy to go back and find exactly what you're looking for. I also really love how accessible everything is; Furie denotes the recipes with easily found ingredients with an asterix. I found some of the parts to be repetitive, but that's the nature of the cookbook style. There also were some formatting issues and typos that I hope will be fixed when the book officially comes out. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this to baby witches looking to explore potion making and any experienced witches that want to revisit the topic.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
