Made me feel such a wide range of emotions throughout. I’ve never seen read such a magical, well-constructed tale of the connection to nature. The “witchcraft” through the family was so interesting because it’s typically depicted with spells but the subtle deep down to connection to nature was so much more powerful. It was so frustrating but real how men’s abuse of power, domestic abuse, and rape was and still is dominating women’s lives. It was hard to keep going and definitely had to take breaks at times when it became too much. A heartbreaking but beautiful, beautiful, beautiful book.
