Title: The Witches
Series: N/A
Author: Roald Dahl
Read Before: yes
My Comments: This book is populated with some very creative elements. I love the characteristics that the author has given the witches, it’s different and for that, makes them very interesting. Their appearance is not the typical sort that you would see. The antagonists (which, naturally, are the witches) aren’t menacing yet you still feel that they should be eradicated. The illustrations add a lot to the story, and it helps you visualise what is happening, it wouldn't be half as fun if they were not there. And that’s just what it is; the book is immense fun to read, keeping you hooked until the end. As long as you don’t take it too seriously, you’ll have a blast reading it. Again, there is the simple and innocent feel of the plot that is prevalent in many of Roald Dahl’s novels. I found that the ending was abrupt, and it seemed like a perfect opportunity for a sequel.
Rating: 6.5/10
