[WendyB , Witchy Woman]

Each of our April Group Reads was written by a woman and I also noticed many of our recent selections were written by women. Love to see our group enjoying these stories and recognizing women can write some really good horror.

[Rikki]

Just placed this on hold through my library. This sounds like it’s going to be good!

[Tracy Booktalk]

I have it as my next read. Thanks

[Latasha]

omg me & Kimberly was just talking about this book!

[Patrick]

Three quarters of this book are excellent. I liked the folk horror setting, it's creepy at times and the central mystery is gripping right up until the point that it isn't. The final few chapters seem rushed and the pay off is a little disappointing. It's not enough to ruin the book but it's definitely a shame.

[Anna]

I'm on chapter 10 and I absolutely love it so far 😍

[Ashley]

Loved this! I always enjoy a good witch or folk horror story!!!

[Netanella]

I'm up to the point where the former BFF (is it Violet? I don't remember the name right now and I don't have the book handy) is (view spoiler)[ taken out by the witchy-girl as she's harassing and throwing eggs at the house. (hide spoiler)] Great scene! Couldn't have happened to a better former BFF!

[Netanella]

I'm at about 80% and I just have this overwhelming need to smack Mina. Is it just me?

[Celeste]

Hopefully I can get to this one before the end of the month

I agree. It turns into a different book at the end. It's heavily projected that (view spoiler)[ Bert's pretty sketchy but it seemed shoehorned into what was supposed to be a witchy possession story. (hide spoiler)]

My library hold finally arrived! Can't wait to start this one~

[Rikki]

I really enjoyed the beginning of this book. The end kind of fell short of my expectations though.

[Netanella]

I felt the same way, Rikki. I think it's because the (view spoiler)[paranormal element turned into the weird old man and his perverted habits. (hide spoiler)]
