A review by venla_reads
The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare

3.0

I doubt I'd rate this book so high, if it wasn't for the nostalgic value. I read this as a kid and I remember loving it, and now, having reread it, I kinda still do. Kit and Nat are still very special to me and their relationship and romance is right up in my alley. This book used to make me yearn for romance and adventure, and those vibes are still there. But obviously the books is far from perfect. The racism towards black people and native americans is disturbing to say the least, and the story is a bit boring at times. It isn't nearly as witchy as the title suggests, which is a shame.
