And I don't usually give rating to books I dnf (I rarely dnf books to be honest), but this was just so bad! Repetitive as hell! "I'm a wise old soul so lemme tell you something honey"-ish. Now, this is not a rant review!!! There were so many parts I loved and felt! But I liked most was the Witch part of the book, the feminism part was a big fail. THIS Woman.
