Let them call you witch, as they do any woman who professes power.

i guess i should note that i’ve never read macbeth so i can’t really say how much this story is influenced by the original play and its characters. and honestly, i don’t know how to rate this. i didn’t love this book but i also didn’t hate it. it was interesting which is why it kept me entertained for the most part. i’ll always enjoy reading stories that have female rage in gothic settings.
