A review by happyladyjadereads
Cunning Women by Elizabeth Lee

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced

3.75

 A strong and engaging debut, this tale of star crossed lovers in Lancashire England in 1620 is reminiscent of Bridget Collins’ The Binding with young people trapped by their circumstance in poverty and magic rooted in pagan belief. It is heartily enjoyable, with a strong narrative throughout and a love for readers to root for. It really got me thinking about cult mentality and the power one loud voice has over others, so I now can’t wait for her follow up novels.
