A review by annarella
Sanctuary, by V.V. James
5.0
I don't know if this is a dark urban fantasy with some women's fiction and thriller aspects or what it is.
I just know I liked the mix of fantasy and realistic descriptions.
It's a gripping and entertaining read, it kept me on the edge and it was an excellent reading experience.
The most terrifying part was how easily a witch hunt could start and how easily the one who do not completely fit could be targeted.
The character and plot development are fascinating, the story is told by different characters and we can read their POV. Documents and interviews are also part of the story and makes it even more realistic.
The relationship between the women and their children are well described and it's hard to find anone likeable. They're all faulted and in a grey moral area.
The world building is interesting and I was fascinated by the magic system.
It was an exciting reading experience, highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
