Witches only exist in stories. Everyone knows that. But what if the stories are real? Four friends. Four truths. One nightmare. If you wander into the wood. If you hear scratching sounds from the Old Quarry. If you go too close to the edge. Watch. Out.
This is a very good book, I really liked the suspense. Something that felt quite different was how the mythical beings were portrayed; it was a way I had never seen before. This book is very spooky and I don’t like horror very much but the way this was portrayed was quite nice. I like the portrayal of witches.
They seem more realistic and human than what is usually portrayed in stories. I would rate this book 3 out of 5 stars. It was time well spent. I would recommend this to an acquaintance.
