I really enjoyed this. Much more than I thought I would. I was really put off which how big this was but I still managed to read it in 3 days. I've only ever read 2 books by Grady Hendrix and both of them have been so fast paced.
I think part of the reason why I loved this so much is that I really felt for the characters. You know it 'takes two to tango' but it always seems to be the woman who is shamed and has to be sent away. And that fact that this was only in the 1970s shocked me. It all just seemed so prehistoric.
I obviously liked the witchy part (I love almost anything to do with witches) and that it was all about the girls using magic to make people feel how they felt.
