WRONGED. HANGED. ALIVE? (AND TRUE!)Anne can't move a muscle, can't open her eyes, can't scream. She lies immobile in the darkness, unsure if she'd dead, terrified she's buried alive, haunted by her final memory―of being hanged. A maidservant falsely accused of infanticide in 1650 England and sent to...
I've picked this book up a few times in bookstores but never actually brought myself to buy it. While I love my paranormal in fictions, mediums just don't sit well with me. On the subject of mediums I'm a complete cynic. But when I renewed my library card the other weekend I saw this book and though...
Stilted, mediocre and stuffy writing. I'm a huge fan of historical fiction but this is simply not up to par.

I admit I hastily requested The Disgrace of Kitty Grey earlier on as I saw it was one of the few YA books ...
Wow. This was a powerful book. I think the fact that it’s based on a true story makes they story more chilling. I did take a while to warm up to the story. In fact I almost quit reading. The story starts out right after Anne was hanged. She’s left in nothingness thinking over her life and trying to ...
Well, nice! I picked this book up about a year ago because it was on a great deal and the story looked intriguing, but I didn't have high expectations. It turned out that I actually quite enjoyed it! The dual narrative was really well done, and I was interested in both stories: the corpse telling he...
