Already SO much better than The Lighthouse Witches!
Same vibes, just US instead of UK but much more magic-witchy-October vibes

Waiting for it to become “Adult” in the plot and characters, rather than the 18+ “activities” is probably futile at this point. There was so much potential

I saw a video criticizing SJM’s writing for - amoung other things - “telling” rather than “showing” the reader everything. Let me tell you, SJM doesn’t “tell” NEARLY as much as other “women’s authors” do.

I might - MIGHT - have a suspect!

I feel like by doing things while listening I’ve got a couple gaps in the timeline, but it’s fine, right? I forgot how much I admire that this author doesn’t shy away from the gruesome and grotesque. It fits quite well

Interesting that the only way to read this sequel (between two different libraries) is on audio 🤷🏻‍♀️

You’d like it if you’re in your Salem Witch Trials era, or if you’re a fan of those contemporary young girl coming-of-age (maybe also sexual awakening)and facing deep family trauma.
But it’s paced and written well enough that I can’t quite DNF it

Read-a-thon progress is encouraging! This is not a small book but the pacing is really good and is keeping me wanting more

Not loving the audiobook nearly as much, but it’ll do while I wait for the e-copy again
