Great concept and very well written. I enjoyed this book but I honestly don't feel particularly attached to it. It's not one of those books that I'll rave about to everyone who will listen. I found it a bit too slow at times and the reoccuring abuse was tough. I think if there was a bit more hook in the 1st third of the book and if the magical elements had been ramped up a bit more it could have been a 5 star read for me because this kind of story is right up my alley. But I really did enjoy how it all unfolded, with jumping between the 3 generations of women from this family. All the breadcrumbs that were dropped and followed through across the time lines were so well done.
