I enjoyed a lot of the prose, hard to suspend disbelief enough to enjoy the survival story. I think the author’s worldview on nature and colonialism was too infused into the main character. Maybe it’s a me problem but I want a puritan to have puritan beliefs and explore her world through them.  Gonna go rewatch the VVitch

Never read a book like this. Was not expecting it to hold my attention so much. I just wanted her to be okay
but why did I even think for a minute she would? So sad :(
slow-paced

This is an incredible and beautiful book but certainly not an escape from the real world. Haunting and good for people who are into 
 Nonfiction even though it is a fictional story
