I thought this would be a nice overview of the Salem trials but it was rather boring. It read like a text book, not a book designed for YA readers interested in the topic. I'd recommend this for research use only, and not just for the casual reader.

Re-read 6/2016. Not sure what mindset I was in when I first read this but I've enjoyed it this second time. It is a researched historical account but reads much like a mystery narrative. Rating updatedfrom 2 to 4 stars.
