Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfsbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.

A book filled with spells, rituals etc. which is published ergo not made by the witch herself is a grimoar and thus is not a BOS.
To see a world in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

Did i say anything about the inner text? i was referring to the cover art.In the world there are as many Books Of Shadows as there are witches. A BOS is a kind of journal/diary of a single individual witch and a BOS reflects the individuality of it's owner. A BOS is filled with spells, rituals and other information which go with the craft that the witch practices.

You didn't phrase your question well. Any simple, plain notebook can be used for a book of shadows (I even know a person who keeps her bos on the pc) so it doesn't have to be one from the shop which has 'book of shadows' written on it.
I'll post the cover of mine when my sister returns my camera, no use describing it when a picture is much better.

The autumn air thickly fills my lungs so sweetly;
Reminds me of her smoky breath.
With wine and this bouquet of maple and oak leaves,
In death or life, we'll always be.
