My first book from this author. Excellent character development, interesting family interaction. Subtle lesbian theme, hope future books do not concentrate on that.
Thank you to Redhook Books, for the arc of this book.
I found this book a really beautiful read, it was very well written, I loved how the story went form the 1930’s to the 1940’s, you never felt confused from this.
I really enjoyed it.

The Witch's Kind is about a young woman named Barrie Anne Blythe and her aunt Charlotte. Strange things are happening and soon a baby is found by their dog. With Barrie's long-lost husband coming back to town, Barrie and Charlotte must decide how far they will go to protect themselves and this newly found baby.
Barrie is an interesting character because a lot happens to her, especially when it comes to her marriage. The author does a good job of bringing the past and present together by having the chapters be one or the other. It adds depth to the characters and makes you interested in their lives.
The plot was not what I was expecting. There was more talk about aliens than witches and that was a letdown for me since the title has the word witch in it. The only discussion was about water witches and they would have premonitions every once and a while. Excluding the witches part, the plot did keep me invested when it came to her estranged husband. There was a few loose ends that weren't tied up, especially with the mysterious child and government officials which I would have liked to read more about.
Overall, it was a decent read and if you like strange happenings and strong females this book is for you!
