The Book of Witching by CJ Cooke
Elizabeth is Missing by Emma Healey
Little Siberia by Antti Tuomainen
January 2025 - Scottish witches; a beautifully sad description of dementia; meteorites, murder and humour from Finland and a decent story about friendship and secrets - great start to the year. Elizabeth is Missing was the best of this bunch, although it was a difficult read x
