Conversion by Katherine Howe

5.0

Well hell yeah. I loved this book. Salem now, Salem past. Yep this book links them together in a very interesting and gripping story. This story is written in alternate chapters of 2012 and 1700’0 We all know about the young girls in the 1700’s who accused people of witchcraft, horrid story but a well documented case of mass hysteria or follow the leader. Now we have a private school being hit with, dare I say female hysteria? Yes is seems to be happening all over again.
Things I learned from this book PANDA, Conversion and that Danvers, Massachusetts is the original Salem Village where the witch trials were held. Oh, and that Goody was a polite way to address woman. We now use the suffix of Mrs. Miss and Ms.
