Root Magic by Eden Royce
3.0
Set in South Carolina (in the marsh, the second Carolina marsh book of the month for me!) in 1963, Root Magic is filled with history and Gullah culture. This story follows Jezebel, her twin brother Jay, and their family just after the passing of their grandmother. Jezebel and Jay have turned eleven and are starting to learn about root work and their family history.
This started off really strong for me but was very slow going in the center and I couldn't quite figure where the author was going. It picked up again in the end but it made for a slower read.
