Well, to begin with, I love Alice Hoffman's style. It is just a pleasure to read her lyrical prose, her captivating stories. At the heart of this story is a young woman, Rebecca Sparrow, who is wrongly put to death in old Massachusetts for being a "witch." Thirteen generations later comes Stella Sparrow, who, like the other Sparrow women, receives a variation of extra sensory perception on her 13th birthday. There's romance gone wrong, a little murder thrown in, and redemption. High class chick lit.
