Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Cooke has done an incredible job of combining many concepts. From witch trials, to sci-fi, and adding in familial trauma and potential murder, this was a fun mixed bag. I really enjoyed the way all these things played out. The varying points of view, including from different time periods, was well thought out and well written. Honestly, even the incredibly frustrating way the women and children were written was comparable to reality.
Overall, I enjoyed this book fully. While I wish the book had been a tad longer to allow for more development, it was still great. If you like witch trials, paranormal things, and creepy children, this book is something you should check out. It’s easy to follow, and the ending left me pretty satisfied.
