The Garden of Bewitchment review






The Garden of Bewitchment is the latest novel by Catherine Cavendish, are you ready to be haunted?

Sisters Evelyn and Claire leave their home to set down stakes in a quieter area. They’re looking for a fresh start and somewhere they are less known and can work on their writing together. But something is amiss, will the sisters make it out alive?

This was a fun period piece, Cavendish has a wonderful style of writing that draws you in, and makes you feel like you’re reading something from a past era. This is a book that gets more complex as it goes on, and Cavendish expertly weaves numerous plot points together for a fun, yet creepy read. I went back and forth between being engaged in the sisters daily lives to be creeped out by the predicaments they found themselves in.

If I had one complaint, it would be that I was able to figure out a plot point fairly early on in the story, although it didn’t take too much from my enjoyment.

The Garden of Bewitchment will sit well with fans of historical horror, if that’s not your flavor, its still worth a shot.
