A Break With Charity: A Story About the Salem Witch Trials
by Ann Rinaldi

Recommended by:  Ji M.
Do you like historical books with a fictional twist in them? Then this book is for you! This book is based off of the events of the real Salem Witch Trials. It is about a young girl in Salem village named Susanna English and her experience on the witch trials. After Susanna finds out that the witch trials are just a prank done by a group of girls, she gets blackmailed by their leader, Ann Putnam, who says she will name Susanna's beloved parents as her witch tormentors if Susanna spills the beans. How will Susanna be able to revele their plans without her parents being branded as witches? Read the book to find out more! I like how this book is a thought on how the real Salem Witch Trials happened. I also like the  figurative language in this book too!

This book was: Pretty Interesting!

I would recommend this book to:  People who like historical fiction books.

I rate this book:
