Synopsis:
Two POVs, of two sets of sisters. Both with hard childhoods, abusive or negligent parents, but one thing looming in common - Wisewood. Wisewood, a place that keeps your secrets, if you keep theirs. (Keeping it brief, to be spoiler free)
Review:
I love a culty theme to a book, and this book was intriguing from start to finish. The cult leader was fascinating, and my favorite part of the book, but the ending/drama was less than exciting. I felt like it could have gone bigger, or darker, but still thoroughly enjoyed the book overall.
