Maybe most of all I liked how she wrote about the little we know of the aftermath -- it's horrible but fascinating to think about all the people who accused each other at the height of the crisis and then had to spend their ENTIRE LIVES running into each other awkwardly at the store.

Holy shit. I've never thought about that either! (Tbf, the Salem trials are obviously less of a big deal here in the UK than across the pond.) I'd watch the fuck out of that TV series, too - like a very dark Vicar of Dibley!!
