pickI enjoy reading Bill O'Reilly's Killing Series. I always learn so much about history. From the Salem Witch Trails to the movie The Exorcist to how the town of Salem has embraced their history for profit, Killing the Witches covers it all.

pickI don‘t agree with his political views but he certainly makes reading history entertaining. What I thought was just going to be a discussion about the Salem Witch Trials turned into one of religious freedoms and the American Revolution. Who knew we had a problem with the separation of church and state from the beginning!
panThis book was horrible. It was sloppy and rushed at the end; there were too many things that didn‘t go together. Voodoo shared with a white woman, astral projection, demons, St. Teresa of Avila, and Salem. You can‘t throw all that together and expect it to work! A really bad quick read.

so-soI have mixed feelings about this book. The main timeline involving Connie is rather dry and condescending. Hence, my new pet peeve the witch books that are critical of modern witches trope. Connie is a researcher who studies early colonialism but for the summer, she is clearing out her mother's childhood home. The other timelines are mostly from Deliverance and Mercy, who were caught in the Salem witch trials.

pickI really liked this and was intrigued by a lot of what happened during those terrible times. Fear is a terrible thing, and the puritans let it overtake them until it completely consumed them. Such a sad time in history, and for all of those who were accused not only in Salem, but throughout the regions. Very informative novel. I scored about 2,000 word search points for #scarathlon with this book! #blackcatcrew
Little bit of car reading going on here. Loving this book so much, and it‘s so informative! Lots of stuff I never knew before about the witch trials.
When classrooms dumped these from their libraries I grabbed several copies and kept one for myself.
