shelbypey 's review for:

The Witch's Heart by Genevieve Gornichec
3.75
adventurous slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

this is a norse mythology retelling centered around a powerful and influential witch forgotten by most of history. I would very much recommend this to fans of Circe by Madeline Miller!

pros:
- lovely story
- main character was great
- wonderful ending 
- seems to be very well researched

cons:
- it lacks the level of flourishing prose you see in Miller’s books. not a huge con but I did find myself wanting
- quite a slow start
