Wytches are like nothing horror fans have ever seen” - USA TodayĮverything you thought you knew about witches is wrong. I wasn’t going to continue the series until I realized this was the entire story lol.“It's fabulous.
Sailor’s anxiety and paranoia is certainly validated, but huge swaths of the big reveal felt a bit trite. I was disappointed in the “wytches” themselves and hoping for a bit more originality and complexity with the idea, but they were extremely one dimensional. This could’ve been how the author showed Charlie’s character development, and this could just be my hangup due to my own past, as it was hard for me to read, but it still seemed pretty shitty. While her father eventually became less of a douche about his daughter’s anxiety, he sure as hell didn’t help it along by forcing her to climb a derelict Ferris wheel at one point with only him berating her spurring Sailor on. The flashbacks centered on Charlie, and the voice-overs were Charlie’s, so if this was Sailor’s story, she didn’t get much say in it. She had a cool, quirky look, which may have been Snyder’s way of hinting why she’d been bullied, but no personality to fill that role.ĭespite the fact her father Charlie says this is “her story,” it was largely more focused on him. I liked the relationship Sailor had with Charlie, her father, but her character is not well developed. There was also an in-story comic that cleverly connected with the book’s plot, and the artwork is decent. I liked how the novel was cleverly bookended with everything occurring tying in with an incident in the beginning. When the Rooks family moves to the remote town of Litchfield, NH to escape a haunting trauma, they’re hopeful about starting over.
