A review by cher_n_books
The Winter Witch by Paula Brackston
3.0
3 stars - It was good.
There is a distinct difference between slow books and boring books, namely that I can enjoy a slow story but cannot suffer a boring one. This one was slow, but not boring. I enjoyed the author's way with words and the atmospheric feel of the novel, but it was not what I was expecting. This has a fairytale-esque, Disney for adults feel, which is nice sometimes, but generally is too sweet for my personal tastes.

Favorite Quote: If you are not able to travel, he told me, the next best thing is to read. Read all you can, girl. And store up that knowledge, for you never know when you will need it.
First Sentence: Does the spider consider herself beautiful?
