emtobiasz I have no memory of anything about this book other than the cover, but that cover feels so iconic! 5y
SkeletonKey @emtobiasz - It‘s gorgeous! The used bookstore I got it from put a large sticker over the illustration on this copy 😭 5y

I haven‘t read this since I was a teenager but my lovely boyfriend found it for me! I‘m so excited to re-read it.

This was a bit like The Midwife's Apprentice or Catherine Called Birdie but with magic

Hosted a New Year's brunch and book swap a couple weeks ago. A friend brought this YA book as her pick and I've been reading it in bits at bedtime. Lovely info about an outcast Wiccan (though they don't use the word) who mentors a young girl. Compelling earth magic and mysticism in the mix.

Natasha.C.Barnes I used to read so much fantasy as a kid, I had forgotten. So much fun, I need to take a month off my reading lists sometime and just revisit all of these. 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes We all know Pippi is awesome, but did anyone read 7y
