Weston's novel starts out in a rather creepy way but eventually has a lot of humour as well. I liked both the characters and the setting. Alfie and Mia were believable protagonists and I found myself rooting for them throughout. Meg herself was also wonderfully drawn and I especially enjoyed the early scenes with her and Alfie. The thing that didn't fully convince me were, on the one hand, the dialogues which sometimes felt a little stilted and, on the other hand, the motif for Meg's haunting. It was understandable, yes, but the solution came rather too easily and quickly for my taste. In general, The Witching Stone is an entertaining and atmospheric read which I enjoyed and finished in one day. If you are into folklore, witches and revenge stories, this may be the book for you.
