What I'm reading Wednesday...

 

Fiftieth challenge finish of the year.

This one is my book club's selection for October, so it's playing double duty counting it for  my 'Read In A "-ber" Month' prompt.

Really lliked this one.  Good research, likable characters.  I did get a little annoyed with the main character's inability to control the things she said; but offending people was probably all it took for a woman to be arrested as a witch in 1600s New England.

And I always love when the Author's Notes and the Acknowledgements are interesting.

  2. Yes, it didn't take much for a woman to be branded a witch in 1600s New England. Your cow died, you're a witch! Your chickens aren't laying, you're a witch!

    1. That's so funny; one of the witnesses in her trial did testify about livestock! :)
