Want to Read: Erin Bow - Plain Kate
A young adult historical fantasy, in which a young, independent girl has to survive on her own, leading to suspicion of her as a witch. Set in 16-th century Poland/Lithuania. Reminds me of "Enchantment" by Orson Scott Card - I'm sure it won't be a similar novel at all ("Enchantment" is pretty unique), but I loved the time period and elements of Russian fairy tales. Also sounds a bit like Ken Follett's "Pillars of the Earth" with the independent woman in a time period that doesn't welcome it.
