The Oracle Glass by Judith Merkle Riley

3.0

i don't KNOW how i feel about this. on the one hand, i like Genevieve, the premise is fantastic, i enjoyed most of the story, and also spoiler alert two of the witches are LESBIANS. but there are also parts that just didn't do it for me. i know Genevieve is only a teenager but the romance drama, omg, please save me from it--and d'Urbec transforms from basically the nerdy philosopher in the corner to suddenly a suave genius, lol okay. and this is based on real stuff so maybe this is accurate, but i found it hard to believe that if these women really had ALL this power, they'd spend most of it on fights between the king's mistresses.... anyway, overall i liked it??
