4.5

I'm gonna have to come back and reread this one day, because my several-month-long book slump caught this in a crossfire and I'm afraid that I missed so much of the experience reading the book by setting it down for so long I'm between reading sessions. I just about swallowed the last 70% in a week.

The Honey Witch by Sydney J. Shields

Did not finish book. Stopped at 77%.

I read far more of this book than I should have. The plot was basically nonexistent, the characters did not act realistically nor were any of them particularly likeable, and nothing was developed well. I don't know HOW it has a 3.5+ star rating
