I absolutely loved this book! Tying classic fear-based public response to witchcraft and its practice to a more modern but unspecified time. I loved its classic feel with twists on how a witch is defined or what they might look like. The story tells about hunters with stories told like legends. Schwab also offers great characters. The young heroine is admirable and fiery. Mixed with some mild romance, I really enjoyed the plot and the storytelling both by the author and by her characters. I would recommend both print and audio versions.

I could sense bits and pieces of Schwab's trademark magic in this, but overall I'm underwhelmed. The characterization felt off. It just didn't work for me. Perhaps this is proof that VE Schwab is mortal after all. :)
