this would have been DNFed so quickly had i not been listening to the audiobook and already familiar with the timeline of events in 1692, because this book has moments where it diverges from the story to discuss some minute detail to the point that it makes it so easy to forget where you are in the history of the Salem Witch Trials… wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who hasn’t had the events of 1692 as a hyperfixation or special interest due to its density of prose and meandering pace (a good alternative: the first season of the Unobscured podcast by the creator of Lore, which has interview excerpts from a multitude of historians as well as the author of this book and is still thorough—though much more approachable)
