A review by natkstensberg
The Familiars by Stacey Halls

3.0

I think it’s quite well written and when there is “action” it’s very captivating and I want to keep reading. I actually don’t mind the POV because it’s that well written, I think it fits the story really well and even makes it better. The ending I quite liked, it felt very deserved for Fleetwood, especially after how everything was going for her.

Very little happens, and action is far apart, so it gets a little hard to read and slightly boring at times. The chapters are so long, most of them are almost unbearably long. I do find the whole age thing a bit disturbing, even if it fits the time period. I do wish there had been more about the witch trials, it’s very skimmed over.

I don’t think I would read it again, it lacks the whole witch trials it’s supposed to be about
