"The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane" By Katherine Howe

                   Connie Goodwin, who is a Harvard grad student, is

asked by her mother to clean out her grandma's house so they  

can sale it. Connie knows she needs to study this summer to do 

her doctoral dissertation but she helps her mom anyway. While 

cleaning out the house she finds an ancient key in the family 

 Bible that has the name Deliverance Dane written on a piece of  

paper. As she tries to find out more about this woman she also 

finds a physick book handed down through the generations and  

 she learns more about Salem. She also learns about her own  

 past in Salem with the witch trials. Katherine Howe's books 

about the witch trials always make me want to learn more. She

has such a way of writing about the past and present in each 

book and meshes them together well. I would highly recommend

any of her books, especially for a fun fall read.
