I loved the characters and the writing. The first book, Secret History of Witches, followed generations. The Witches Kind is three generations. Aunt Charlotte, Barrie Ann, and Emma. The two timeliness create a depth to the characters. The special feelings or premonitions they get are not overtly witchy but a suble ability the women get when they touch water.
The writing is elegant and descriptive without being too much.
The storyline was good but there are trigger warnings. Domestic violence and death of a child.

Louisa has once again weaved a riveting tale of otherworldly happenings intricately entertained with real world phenomena. Absolutely gorgeous writing, beautiful characters, and an absolutely amazing plot.
