I really enjoyed it. The author is descended from two Salem witches,
which intrigued me. I found one part of it fairly predictable, but the
writing was good and otherwise the story was great. She's also working
on a YA book that's sort of retelling the story of Salem through some of
the mass hysteria illness cases in upstate New York. Don't know when
that's due out, but it's from Putnam's YA line.

It's a great way to find about them, I agree!
