The first 60% of the book was a 3/5 stars for me. Interesting characters, so much potential regarding the main group of women. I loved the idea of a childhood friendgroup of witches that goes on to help a supposedly evil sort of chosen-on to raise her to be oart of the good ones. 

But the execution (for me) went downwards as the conflict began to be about the TERF leader, and the main characters didn't seemed believable nor relatable nor likable. 

Maybe ot was partly on me, as I found myself slipping and scanning the pages, overall struggling to finish the book and at least kbow how things end up. But, sadly, I can't say I had a good time reading this book. I thunk the fantasy idea was amazing, like a better-more diverse-feminist-grown-up version of an epic fantasy witch story. But that essence was lost midway and became a 4pm-bland movie about the characters' exhausting conflicts that could have been solved less dramatically and more authentically.
