I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't for the ending. I felt like it was too typical for the book, taking on a stance that many many novels of a similar topic take.

I really enjoyed the start, but I think it tripped over itself at the end.

It is so bizarre to have the entire book be like 'The church is wrong and is using its dogma to oppress women' and then A) not really address the fact that the religion is inherently like that (father = good, mother = bad), and B) have them be absolutely right about the witches being unredeemable evil.

This book is fantastic! I loved the plot and the characters. Immanuelle was a great protagonist and I loved her journey. This book was so hard to put down.
