This book was completely out of my comfort zone and normal genre.
However the beautiful cover drew me in. I'm so glad it did.
Stacey Halls creates a magic within the book as you follow the story of Fleetwood Shuttleworth at the age of only 17 and her rollercoaster life of love and sadness. Having previously lost babies during pregnancy Fleetwood finds a midwife, Alice, she believes is the answer to helping the pregnancy succeed. However Alice is then accused of witchcraft.
As the novel progresses you follow Fleetwoods characters progression and maturity from an insecure child into a powerful woman.
The witch craft era is one that thanks to this novel I'm now intrigued to read more of.
This is a very atmospheric read and one that will enchant you.
