설명

Hocus Pocus and Practical Magic meets the Salem Witch trials in this haunting story about three sisters on a quest for revenge - and how love may be the only thing powerful enough to stop them. Welcome to the cursed town of Sparrow... Two centuries ago, in the small, isolated town, three sisters were sentenced to death for witchery. Stones were tied to their ankles and they were drowned in the deep waters surrounding the town. Now, for a brief time each summer, the sisters return from the depths, stealing the bodies of three weak-hearted girls so that they may seek their revenge, luring boys into the harbor and pulling them down to their watery deaths. Like many locals, seventeen-year-old Penny Talbot has accepted the fate of the town. But this year, on the eve of the sisters' return, a boy named Bo Carter arrives; unaware of the danger he has just stumbled into or the fact that his arrival will change everything... Mistrust and lies spread quickly through the salty, rain-soaked streets. The townspeople turn against one another. Penny and Bo suspect each other of hiding secrets. And death comes swiftly to those who cannot resist the call of the sisters. But only Penny sees what others cannot. And she will be forced to choose: save Bo, or save herself.

Deuxième livre que je lis de Shea Ernshaw, je sais pas si je devrais arrêter d'insister avec cette autrice.. L'ambiance macabre est là tout au long du livre mais on peut facilement comprendre l'intrigue à la moitié de l'histoire.. Une très bonne lecture cela dit.. juste déçue je lui met 3,5 /5

When I picked up this book, I had absolutely no idea what it was about, which was quite refreshing for me, after reading so many books with movie adaptations.The first few chapters had my attention. The book started off with an interesting concept and an eerie, magical atmosphere that I really liked. However, halfway through, it completely lost me.The writing is simple enough to read, but I would have liked to have some more descriptions, since it's very dialogue based.The main character ends up suffering from the curse of instalove and that really bothered me. How on earth can you fall deeply in love with someone, after knowing them for a couple of hours and saying two words to them?Half of the book just seems to drag on, with no actual plot unraveling and the ending was quite predictable for me. Since the final scenes are deeply influenced by the instalove going on, it just didn't feel very believable to me.I think this could have been so much more than it ended up being, and I truly wanted it to be.
