SuitabookMartha Mayhem and the witch from the ditch
Joanne Owen
- Reading
- Try the opening together, then pause after Martha meets Griselda to see whether the comic tone and supernatural challenge suit your reader before continuing independently.
- Themes
- Cooperation with a difficult ally: Martha must help Griselda retrieve the ghoul, though Griselda is described as a grumpy, difficult accomplice. The premise sets up cooperation across a strained partnership, but does not show how either character behaves or changes.
- Worth knowing
- A ghoul is loose, and Martha is described as both thrilled and alarmed by the witch she meets. If supernatural peril unsettles your reader, check how these scenes are handled together.
