adventurous challenging dark tense fast-paced

Y'all don't sleep on CJ Cooke. How have I never seen any reviews of her books? The historical fiction with supernatural twists are 🤌.

The Book of Witching is a fictional story of a real person persecuted and killed during the Scottish Witch Trials.

As if life wasn't hard enough for women back then, throw in political drama, men's inate fear of women and the power of the Catholic Church to get away with heinous crimes in the name of Jesus and you now have a maelstrom of a story.

I'll be reading the rest of Cooke's collection asap!

The story was fun, but the writing felt mediocre. I enjoyed the reading of it while i was in it, but I'm not sure there's much about it I'll remember for long.
