I had fun reading The Crone Zone, it seems ideal for me, a Gen X witch approaching cronehood with a mixture of humor and moxie. Great little book for some pep-talks, spell ideas, and some choice sarcastic f-bomb laden humor typical of my generation.

The Crone Zone should be required reading for every woman over 40 moving towards her cronehood. Except that “should” and “required” are not words that belong in a crone’s vocabulary! So instead, I’ll say that I highly encourage The Crone Zone as an excellent dose of medicine for women who are feeling fear around aging.

Nina Bargiel’s unique voice is so relatable and hilarious. She’s done worrying about who people think she should be and wants you to do the same! I found this book to be deeply empowering and liberating. It has made turning the page to 45 much easier. I’m actually finding myself looking forward to aging and discovering a more authentic version of myself. I especially loved the practical spells the author uses to excavate the reader’s truest self. What a revolutionary gift this book is to modern women!
