Why read it?
1 author picked Took as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love stories that are based on legends, myths, and folklore. This one is the latter.
Took is the first book that opened my mind to folklore of witches and witchcraft. If finding a cabin in the woods with bones and artifacts inside didn’t bring chills down my spine, then the mysterious storyline that followed definitely did. The suspense of the book kept my mind captive till the very end!
From Jodee's list on fantasy books from dragons to ghosts.
