Sinossi
Le pagine di un diario sono cucite dentro una trapunta. Una trapunta che giace indisturbata per oltre trecento anni, finché non viene aperta per essere pulita. Tra le sue pieghe è conservata una storia forte ed emozionante: la storia di Mary nipote di una strega. Quando la nonna di Mary vieni condannata a morte per stregoneria, lei scappa per evitare lo stesso destino. Scopre però che non è facile fuggire e presto cade vittima di superstizioni e sospetti. Ma Mary è decisa a non farsi torturare e uccidere per un crimine immaginario come la stregoneria.

Review 12/29/23 My rating has gone way down on this one since the first time. 3.5 stars (4 for Goodreads) from previously 5 stars. Witch Child takes forever to get started, and once it does, it still doesn't. Witch Child reads like a Dear America novel but without the characters to get invested in as Leggi tutto
