“Black Candle Women” is an overall enjoyable read.
Months ago I took a pic of it in my local bookstore to look for it at the library. I’m glad I listened to it instead. The narrator did an excellent job. It is a slow burn. If they turned it into a mini series, they’d probably add things to make the story juicier.
It was lovely to read a story about Black women where abuse wasn’t a part of their story.
If you’re interested in hoodoo then you might like this.
The ending was satisfying and felt complete.
