truly a boring read that took me forever to finish. i was definitely misled as to what this book is really about, i.e. don’t read this if you want a cute little lesbian period piece. read this if you want a book on how dirty the 1600s are, witches, torture and murder, and two women who don’t meet until 32% of the way through and don’t kiss until the last 10%. overall a disappointing read
