Went looking for cozy cottage-core witches, found 400 years of generational trauma. That one’s on me; I didn’t read the description especially closely.
This did absolutely nothing to restore (establish?) my faith in men, but it is a beautiful story of female resilience and connection to nature, and is the first book to make me cry in a while.
There was a really weird minute where I was very afraid that this book is anti-choice, but fortunately that’s not the takeaway here.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CHECK THE CONTENT WARNINGS. I am very upset. Again, that one’s on me.
