Wicked Girls/ Stephanie Hemphill/ 408 pages

This is a novel written in verse about the Salem Witch Trials. The novel is told from the point of view of 3 of the accusers. In my opinion, this is not work well as a novel in verse. I just could not get into it. I only finished reading it, so as not to loose the pages I had already ready for this challenge. By the end of the book, it was giving me a lot to think about, but the girls were not very sympathic and it made me want to read a better written book about the trials and accusations and the lives of the girls that felt the need to accuse innocent people.
