A review by melc
Cunning Women by Elizabeth Lee

Did not finish book.
This book interested me as I enjoy historical fiction and find the witch trials a fascinating part of our history.

Yet, I just did not connect with this book. I found the prose patchy and hard to engage with. I wasn't able to connect with the characters and just felt the writing lacked depth. It was quite slow-paced which I normally enjoy, but this just didn't compel me to keep reading. I also didn't feel transported to the time and place in the book and wasn't able to immerse myself in the book. Not a great read for me I'm afraid.

Thank you to Netgalley and Random House UK for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
