3.0

Weyward is a book about the Weyward family throughout the generations. However, whilst reading it, you realise that these women bond over the abusive men in their life more than anything else which I found to be an odd choice. For was this book about how men from the past and present don't change or about how women who are deemed as odd are called witches? The latter was somewhat outshined by the former, unfortunately.

Not spooky witches. More about women and their connection to each other and nature, so if you’re looking for Halloween vibes, this isn’t it.

Female power written in the most poetic way. I’ll be thinking about this for a while.
