Question
My mother recently told me that she will alow me to practice wicca but I need to have the right persone to fallow -whom she found in a friend of hers that is wiccan- but I do not know what the best book of shadows would be, I will be a solitary witch and I have no clue what the best book would be can you help me?

Answer
Merry meet,

I believe that a book of shadows is something you compile yourself, from various findings as well as spells you've written yourself. I would recommend reading and studying many different authors until you find a feel for what you want and don't want.

Blessed be!

Expertise

I can answer questions about being a solitary witch, as well as the history of pagan religions and witchcraft, and the teenage perspective. I can also help you learn about a variety of divinitory and magical methods if you want an introduction. NOTE: I will generally not give you a premade spell to do something,and also refuse to take part in anything unethical - please remember I'm a person, not an automatic spell-dispensing machine.

Experience

I was a practicing solitary for almost 2 years, and have been studying wicca for some years before that in an effort to make my decision. I've also taken a class on paganism, both historical and contemporary, and have informally taught several students. I specifically spend a lot of time with younger students, and so can provide a younger perspective.
