Book Reviews (3)
I'm almost done with this book and thouroughly enjoying it. It is about two girls who got accused of being witches and their jail experience. I reccommend it.
If you like reading about the time period about where people were charged of witchcraft, then this book is for you! The girl in this book's dad has tempers and he will run out of the house, acting crazy. The serving girl quits because of that, and then claims that she is like the girls that are 'controlled by the devil,' and she accuses the two girls, the main character in the book and her sister, of being witches. They go to the dungeon where the witches are kept, and join their aunt who was already there. Do the girls get hanged for saying the truth, Stay in the dungeon forever, and confess to being witches, or blame another? Read on to find out what happens!
