Witchcraft: A Graphic History: Stories of Wise Women, Healers and Magic by Lindsay Squire

informative inspiring medium-paced

3.0

Thank you to NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book! I really enjoyed the art style and the layout of the book. It was really informative and taught me a lot about witches and their history. I did also enjoy the story about Biddy Early and Lindsay in the graphic novel style as it added a fictional element to an otherwise nonfiction book.

What brought the rating down is just how the non-fiction elements came into the fiction story and vice versa. The non-fictional elements would bring me out of the story at a point where I’d be invested as there would be quite a bit to read before returning to Biddy and Lindsay’s story. 

This is a unique non-fiction book that provides a lot of really useful information while adding in a story that uses that information in its plot. This is a really good read for anyone wanting to learn more about witches and I would still recommend giving it a read.
