This feminist, witchy read was everything I needed to start the Fall season. I loved how the characters were tied together through generations. And I loved how the elders were referred to by their roles in the coven; the descriptions of each role was very well done. 
 
I had a little bit of trouble with the FMC’s attitude towards her grandmother at first, but their quirky relationship quickly grew on me.
