What is the author's style in Witch Child by Celia Rees?

This novel is written using a first-person and limited point of view. The point of view is also reliable and this is all proven by the fact that the narrator, Mary, does not have access to others' thoughts and emotions, though she shares her own freely. This is appropriate as the novel is written as a journal. Mary also knows what she witnesses, and she is very astute, presumably because of her powers as a witch. This is important since Mary often predicts impending events, and this serves as evidence of her powers. Additionally, the point of view is useful as it allows the novel to focus on Mary's experiences.
