Forget every book I’ve ever given 5 stars to, because this one is the new standard for me. This may be in my top 5 favorite books EVER. Alix E. Harrow somehow weaved a story  women’s suffrage into the return of witches AND incorporated such unique spins on so many of the fairytales and nursery rhymes we grew up with. The mind of Alix E. Harrow must be a wondrous place to have come up with a story like this. I will be thinking about this one for weeks, if not months.

DID NOT FINISH

I don't even remember but I think I didn't get further than page 60. It just didn't do it for me.

Audio. Very well written. Especially liked the incorporation of Nursery tales into the witch spells.

This is definitely not my type of book. There wasn’t anything dramatic, thrilling or mysterious to hold my attention. Therefore, I could only make it to the half way point.


It’s a Very simple story told in a Very long way.
