Amazing. Some parts less exciting than others, but it was all worth it in the end. The ending was so gripping I stopped breathing. Intense. 10/10 Would recommend, definitely worth a read.

Five Stars: Highly Recommended
This book has absolutely changed me. It will stay with me for a long time. The messages and the author's writing style haunt me. The characters are memorable, with distinct voices, and the plot was well-paced and unique. I will reread this book many times.

Full review coming swoon - I mean, soon.
ETA 8/1/22: This book did not stay with me in the way that I expected; it did not become one of the shelf that I consider to explain me down to my soul. I have reverted the stars to 4 to reflect this change. STILL HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Hmph the way this was presented made it seem like it was going to be darker and more interesting than it was.... the last act was the strongest, wish it had built to it better

Actual rating: 3.5/5 stars.

I liked it, but some parts seemed like they were literally just taken directly out of The Crucible.

i liked this book quite a lot but i do feel it could've been a little better and the ending was a bit dissapointing because i thought Mary was going to die, but she didn't.
