There is not much that happens in this book, really, but it's so compelling anyways. Nena's trip to the past is the story I was most interested in, but I also really liked Marta's plot and thought she was a great character.

I liked the historical lens this story used in terms of describing the witches. But I wish the ending had more closure.

Oof! I did not enjoy this one. The timeline jumping was confusing and I didn’t really like the dual POVs either. The magic system (if you can even call it that) wasn’t very exciting and didn’t feel it was ever fully explained or flushed out. 
The most interesting part of the book was probably just the historical stuff and the time spent in the convent back in the 1700s

i liked the flipping between past and present but some of the story felt underdeveloped/rushed. i would have liked it to be longer!
