A review by literarymarvel
Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix

4.5

Wow. I didn't think Grady could surprise me after How to Sell a Haunted House (I loathe puppets) but this was such a breath of fresh air for a horror novel. Somehow, Grady personifies the literal horrors of having female bodily autonomy stripped away, the emotions and passions of young adult hood, and the incredible force of the unification of women's power. Dark, raw, and gripping, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls was a shockingly serious and powerful story about motherhood, womanhood, and the loss of self-worth and sovereignty.
