About the author
Jenna Matlin is a tarot professional and the author of two books published by Llewellyn Publications and Weiser Books. Will You Give Me a Tarot Reading? (2022) is a practical guide aimed at readers who already know the cards and want to build confidence reading for other people, using step-by-step guidance and worked examples. The Tarot Book of the Dead moves into more specialized territory, addressing tarot's use in mediumship, grief work, and what the book calls psychopomp practice, guiding the dead, an area Matlin's publisher describes as underserved by existing tarot literature. Across both books, Matlin writes for practicing readers rather than beginners, focused on the interpersonal and ritual dimensions of giving tarot readings rather than on card meanings alone.
