BUYING ADVISORY: MS, HS - OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW
Caponi’s guide explains everything from understanding tarot itself to card spreads and includes details on every card in a typical tarot deck. This is a great place for beginners of any age to start learning about tarot—and a resource list for further reading is in the back of the book.
Tarot is a niche topic, which is the only reason I rated it as “low” in audience appeal. Caponi writes in an engaging way that most nonfiction books struggle with. The second half of the book is repetitive in structure as each card is explained, but the information is still interesting.
The mature content rating is for depictions of nudity in the artwork shown on example tarot cards from the Rider Waite Smith deck, and the violence rating is for depictions of weapons as shown on example tarot cards from the same deck.
