I think that the writing in here was lovely. The Hag is a misunderstood woman named Cailleach who is centuries old slumbering as her lineage lives on, waking only when they need help, waiting for the day when the circle will close. We read about her present day many greats granddaughter Alice and read about other generations weaved in throughout the story forgetting and finding their power. Is it perfect? No, but I enjoyed it. A feminist Pick!

Cathythoughts Sounds good ! I‘m from a long line of Kathleens & Catherines & Kates & Kittys & I‘m getting old & into that territory 👍🏻♥️stacked ! (edited) 5y
Reggie @Cathythoughts in here the name Catherine comes from the name Catriona. Who happens to be near the top of their lineage. Hope you like it if you read it! 5y
ephemeralwaltz Reaaaally can't wait to read this! 5y

I love this book so far. I love paragraphs like these. This book feels very Circe adjacent. Like they live in the same city but different neighborhoods.

Centique Ahhh sounds so good! 5y
Reggie @Centique it‘s right in our wheelhouse. 5y
Centique @Reggie I‘m so happy to have a shared wheelhouse! 😍 5y

Unlike any title I have read, and for that I am thankful to indie publishers. Not so much horror as much as creepy and atmospheric. I love the female-centric aspect of it and the idea of time as non-linear. Just sent this out to you, @kamoorephoto today, along with Scribe. :) #ScreamsByMail #HorrorPostalBookClub #WomenReadWomen2019

scripturient 👍🏻 I‘ll send out your package today as well. Sorry, it was a bit delayed. 6y
GatheringBooks @scripturient Absolutely no worries! Take your time, really. Got loads in my TBR stack as it is. 😭🤣😂🧚🏼‍♀️📚📚📚 6y

Having just arrived from KL two days ago, we are traveling yet again - this time to Manila to spend time with husband‘s family who are visiting from California. They will head back home to Singapore with us right after Christmas before they return to the US. Hoping to catch up with a full day of rejuvenating spa, facial, wax, massage the whole day tomorrow. Meanwhile, this book is slow-going but riveting. #ScreamsByMail #HorrorPostalBookClub

Centique Oh that rejuvenating spa day sounds awesome! 6y

Loving the view from our AirBnB home in KL (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) for the loooong weekend book hunting at The Mines: #BigBadWolf book sale. Now starting my choice for Round 2 of #ScreamsByMail book club. May take me until end of the month or early next to finish this and write my notes. 😭😂🤣🧚🏼‍♀️😭 Reading a book from the rocky Scottish cliffs while in Malaysia to buy more books to bring back home to Singapore.

AlaMich That looks like a fancy air bnb! It sounds like you‘re having a great time! 😊 6y
kamoorephoto We visited there many times when I was younger...I have good memories! 6y

A sweeping telling of many gifted birthrights, repeated in varied, yet precut, scenarios that culminate before an inevitable onset of more. Cailleachs through the ages hand down wisdom that comes forth when most needed. A delightful and evoking read of feminist power and perseverance.
