Another fantastic book in the Timeless series by Gabrielle Meyer. Timeless is a christian fiction series that follows the lives through a line of Time Crossers. So you get some time travel, interesting time periods and a bit of romance. They live both paths until a special birthday then they must choose which life to stay in. They go to sleep in one life and wake in the next until they decide.

Review continues in comments

RedxoHearts For A Lifetime is about twins named Grace & Hope. One path they live is 1692 in Salem during the witch trials with an awful father. In that life they are basically the servants and aren't allowed any freedoms. Then the next is New York City in 1912 with their loving parents. They are doing greater things and able to follow their dreams there. 1mo
RedxoHearts They both want to stay in 1912 but soon as their final birthday is on the horizon they find out how different life turns out than you planned. I'm one of those people that want a cute happy ever after eventually though and this series delivers. Gabrielle Meyers is very talented at being able to weave these stories together in subtle ways. Libby from book 1 is the grandma of Grace and Hope. 1mo
RedxoHearts You could read any of the Timeless series as a standalone. I also really like how much the author studies these unique historical times. She takes time to let you really see a snapshot of the world they are in. I rarely ever read long author's notes but find hers interesting where she talks about her inspirations. 1mo

Amidst the historic play-by-play, Roach takes the time to really focus on 6 specific women of the trials: How did they each come to be living in Salem, 1692 (indisputably a WRONG place & WRONG time)? What fears, hopes, misunderstandings could‘ve led innocent women to confess? What traumas & biases, left to fester, could have brought about such hysteria?

This book doesn‘t pretend to have all the answers. But it‘s important to ask the questions.

Read this many years ago but it has stuck with me. This is more of historical fiction than Spooky, but it does talk about the Salem Witch Trails.

This 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 good! This deep, well researched, and expansive exploration of what happened during the 1692 Salem witch trials was compelling and propulsive. This is the perfect example of why narrative nonfiction is fantastic. Perfect for the season, this 18 hour tome flew by! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I 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.
