Bluenose Magic Book Review

Bluenose Magic is a collection of folktales from all over the province of Nova Scotia. Some of the chapters tell of magic, witchcraft, the supernatural, dreams, and divination. I was expecting a story, complete with a climax, plot, beginning, and ending. And yet I still loved it! It was really great to read about all the different stories from different time periods, and there is a home remedies section that could come in pretty handy. One question I’ve been asked about this book is if it was scary. Yes. It is. A little. But no too much. But be warned that the witchcraft chapter is pretty… gory. But I did enjoy the book! And I recommend it to you if you are into this sort of thing. It’s… an interesting read! I hope you check it out!
