Imanuelle’s story in “The Year of Witching” is about a girl who has to fight a fate determined for her. The land she is an outcast in is plagued by a curse set by her mother to protect her.
This book is a mix between a religious cult, meets witch trials, meets what darkness truly is and how people can become all-Consumed into it.
This book, although being outside my normal reading style, was very well written. I was lured into the magic and mystery of the Darkwood making this the perfect spooky season read. The ending did fall a little flat in an effort to wrap it up and leave room for a potential sequel. But overall this was a good recommendation I found in one of my Facebook book groups.
