I could not put this book down; was compelled to finish it quicker than usual… the weaving together of different characters’ lives and stories was a beautiful and deep. This book made me feel things deeply; struck a beautiful and necessary chord.

Initiated: Memoir of a Witch

informative mysterious reflective medium-paced

I found the content of this book interesting and I was compelled to finish it… Best of all, I liked her personal story of a trip to Greece with an important family member in the epilogue… this past really tied the book together for me.

Throughout this audiobook, I found myself distracted by the narration style (and sad about it because I appreciate when authors read their own work). The narration at the end of he book felt better for me, more authentic-feeling.
