Rank (0-5): 5
My review of this book: I found it very interesting and fascinating to follow the life of the witch. The only reason why I would not recommend this book to a friend is because this book has a very developed vocabulary. This makes it hard to understand sometimes. Otherwise, it is an amazing book, and differed greatly from the play.
