Six Women of Salem: The Untold Story of the Accused and Their Accusers in the Salem Witch Trials |

bailedI have tried to read this book twice, and bailed both times.
I just wish this book took more of a narrative/storytelling approach. Felt a little like the genealogy accounts in the Bible if I‘m being honest (so and so accused so and so accused so and so). Very hard to keep track of it all in my head.
Think I‘ll stick to the podcast I‘m listening to now instead to learn about the Witch Trials: Unobscured. Check it out!

"A focused look at the lives of six of the accused, their accusers, and their neighbors who were part of a dark period in American history."

pickThis was a good pick for Halloween, but it wasn‘t terrifying because of paranormal happenings; it was frightening because it involved people. Normal people caught up in an hysteria. Voices of reason were ignored, punished, or executed. Families were ruined and innocents were sent to their death. We can look back and wonder how it happened, but I wonder if 200 years from now, people will look at our times the same.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Can I break a record this year?? It‘ll be tight with just over two months remaining!! Wish me luck! 🤞🤞🤞
My little gal has joined me in the nook this evening, but she‘s not quite sure what to make of it. LOL #currentlyreading
Enjoying some wine and this maddening, yet good book in the new nook! #currentlyreading
This book is maddening, angering and absolutely heartbreaking. Making it even more real, is that Rebecca Nurse, one of the unfortunate souls executed for witchcraft, is a co-worker‘s ancestor. 😢
On to the next #Halloween read! Excited to dive into this one! #nonfiction #currentlyreading
So I have been wanting to read something on the Salem Witch Trials. I don‘t know what to get tho so I always just end up getting nothing. Do you all have any good suggestions in this category?
As a girl in Yarmouth she has seen a seat in the grand stone church there made from the skull and vertebrae of a whale that had washed up on a nearby shore, a trophy from the sea. To sit in it was to pretend to be Jonah swallowed by the whale. Now, in this distant rustic land, she feels swallowed indeed, consumed by events.
so-soInteresting listen about a dark part of history.
#SomethingforSept Numbers in the title. I think I have more but one of my shelves is currently hidden.
Btw my husband says he has never seen me so into an app before Litsy. Guess I found my other addiction.
