This book is not anything like I expected. The book jacket and title sets it up to be much more witch focused but the word witch let alone any magic is very sparse
But despite that I really liked it. It was subtly world war related and Will's character definitely built a crazy amount of suspense. I loved Barrie and Charlotte's characters and the lives they lived.
The alien aspect of it felt like it was a bad surprise. If I had been prepared for it or it was more closely tied to the witch stuff, then maybe. But it wasn't. It was just aliens dropped in with no real intention.
And even the witchy stuff didn't really give me satisfaction.
I'm the end it was just very subtle. That's all.
