Isabel Sterling is a writing coach LGBTQ advocate and author of These Witches Don t Burn This Coven Won t Break and the forthcoming f f vampire novel The Coldest Touch When she s not writing Isabel can be found crocheting projects she ll never finish completing crosswords with her wife and trying not to destroy her garden She lives in Central New York where the winters are frigid the summers are too hot and autumn is perfect. 5 This novella actually was published after the first book in the series These Witches Don t Burn and provided some much needed context to the events that preceded the series I really felt that this enhanced how I understood and felt about the first book which I noted in my review felt as though I started halfway through a book. When the first book picks up Hannah and her ex girlfriend Veronica are in the midst of the wreckage of their breakup The pain was so raw but I admit I had struggled to fully connect with it because I never saw them when things were good I struggled to understand what could have possibly happened to their relationship to leave them in the state they were in with one another full of both love and hate. Now I got to see the notorious Manhattan trip that sparked the beginning of the end for Hannah and Veronica and led to Hannah s paranoia over the events happening in Salem in the first book. 5 I read this novella to help me remember the characters and the world before moving onto book 2 since it s been a while since I read book 1 However this was a pretty good little story on its own A lot was packed into 82 pages This Spell Can t Last These Witches Don t Burn 0. 5 This is short and sweet It gives you the details of the NYC trip and let s you get reacquainted with the characters if your reading this after book 1 If your reading this before the first book it s still a good intro to the characters without getting overwhelmed The world build is minimal but it does not hinder the plot progression for this little short story It s just the right amount to wet your appetite about what the first book is all about if your reading this chronologically Well off to continue my marathon with a re read of Book 1 Happy Reading y all Jo This Spell Can t Last These Witches Don t Burn 0. 5 i ll get over it but i ll never forget this novel just confirmed what i already knew veronica is toxic and i hate her hannah is better is her new path finding what is really good for her this book really hurt me because i felt just like i was hannah and i dont i wish to nobody to go through an abusive relationship it s better finished than hurting This Spell Can t Last These Witches Don t Burn 0. This novella delivers on exactly what it promises filling in what happened between Hannah and Veronica during the trip to New York While this isn t an absolute vital part of the series I thought it was a good bridge after finishing These Witches Don t Burn before beginning This Coven Won t Break. Update 7 12 20 After finishing the series I m glad I read this between TWDB and TCWB I d recommend reading these books in the order they were published This Spell Can t Last These Witches Don t Burn 0. 5 A prequel novella to explain what went down between Veronica and Hannah with the Blood Witch and the Casters It definitely shows why the two girls were wrong for each other or at least they weren t right any My heart hurts for Hannah but I know she found her road now This Spell Can t Last These Witches Don t Burn 0. 5
