The book, a National Bestseller makes me realize where the
majority of the US population stands in respects to knowing a true literary
piece. “The Heretics Daughter”, while not a literary piece, and not that in-depth,
was a great story. Long at times, with parts that seems unnecessary the story
had a flow. It seemed that once
the family was in prison, the story got interesting and you cared a lot more
for the characters. The story leads you to believe in what would happen
if…. The story is historical
fiction, and the Salem Witch trials 100% existed, and this story has the
personal touch of Ms. Kent’s grandmother once removed was Martha Carrier!
Did Martha possess powers such as telling the weather?
Maybe. Though I believe the idea is that this family had more knowledge and
know how than others, which made many fear them as witches. Was the family indeed witches, No.
Over all it was a good book!
