I didn't enjoy "The Noonday Witch" at all. The plot was confusing and hard to follow, and I found myself constantly questioning the motivations of the characters. The writing style was also not to my taste, as it was overly descriptive and seemed to drag on forever. Overall, I was left disappointed and frustrated by this book.
2. Emily Thompson - 1 star
"The Noonday Witch" was a complete waste of my time. The story lacked any substance and the characters were flat and uninteresting. I didn't feel invested in the outcome or even cared what happened to the protagonist. The pacing was slow and the flashbacks only added to the confusion. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.
