This was quite an interesting read about the which hunting taking place in 17th century Norway. Set on the small island of Varsø, where a sudden storm has wiped out the entire male population, women rule. One day a new Commissioner arrives with his wife. While she takes to the women of the island, his mission is to find out what caused that storm that took all the men.
Thanks for sending this one to me Cindy ??

I enjoyed this Ethan Fromme retelling last year, but I couldn‘t remember much. Once again I loved it, and Macleod Andrews‘ narration is fantastic!

Ethan‘s wife Zoe‘s women‘s group has been all about the protesting since Trump was elected. As the Kavanaugh hearings approach, she‘s even more upset. Meanwhile Ethan‘s former business partner is about to have Me Too accusations from several celebs. Ethan doesn‘t know how to navigate this new world.

Megabooks Thinking of using this for #AboutWitches because Zoe‘s protest group that is at the center of this novel is call All Them Witches! 😂😂 #pop22 @Cinfhen @BarbaraBB @KarenUK @Kalalalatja @4thhouseontheleft @RaeLovesToRead @Laughterhp @Cortg @jenniferw88 @squirrelbrain 3y

Cortg @jenniferw88 I tried the audio but it took to much effort to listen with the dialect 😩 3y

Salem, Massachusetts 1663, need I say more??
When Mary Deerfield dares to bring a three tined fork into her Puritan household, her husband & indentured housemaid believe Mary has welcomed the devil into their home. And when Mary seeks a divorce on grounds of cruelty, the rumors of her witchcraft begin to swirl. I‘ve seen mixed reviews but I really enjoyed this book. Excellent audio narration. #PoP22 #AboutWitches

Really enjoying this book, although of course it‘ll make your blood boil 😡I gave a little giggle when I spotted a shoutout to ORKNEY #HolidayEscape @BarbaraBB #LiteraryCrew @Librarybelle #Pop22 #Booked2022 #NonPatriarchalSociety This book also works for other prompts but they may be SPOILER-ISH so I‘m putting them under spoiler tag in comments

BarbaraTheBibliophage Perfect pick for that prompt! I really enjoyed this book, even though I was 🤯🤬😡 3y

This reminded me a lot of Mooncakes, but I preferred this. It was grittier, and left out the romance element. It also left any trans content implied instead of making that an explicit storyline, but overall it was well done and had a positive message. #BBRC Middle Grade Anthropomorphic After 2010 @LibrarianRyan #PopSugar2022 #AboutWitches
