Grab A Lost Witch (A Modern Witch, #7) Fabricated By Debora Geary Edition
an excellent end to the series and a wonderful place for a new beginning, I have not read a Debora Geary book that I didn't love and this one is no exception, This one was the hardest to read though, Not because it was bad but because it was so good and so emotional, I cried happy tears, sad tears, frustrated and angry tears and then finally simple silly tears because it didn't last longer, If you've never read a Debora Geary book then you are really missing out on a community that is beyond description, I loved this book so much! I loved Hannah and being able to experience this story with her,
I am a little conflicted about the ending of this book, I loved this whole book and I think that Hannah's story has been one of my absolute favorites in this whole universe, But, the way her magic was ultimately dealt with doesn't really sit as right with me as other magic has in other books, I wish that there was some way for these magics that seem to only
bring pain and sadness to end up being something more beautiful in the right hands.
But despite that conflict, I really loved Hannah's story, I loved to see her character growth and her healing journey throughout this book, And I loved to see all the characters who truly cared for her throughout her whole journey and process,
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who love a good character driven read with lots of warm fuzzies,
Steam Content: Super Sweet, Hugs, kisses and cuddles. Debora Geary is back in this seventh book in the Modern Witch series, Packed full of our favorite characters, A Lost Witch brings with it an emotional punch I wasnt expecting, And yes, something in the books almost always makes me cry, but this one is different, deeper, In part, I think, because of the plot twist Geary throws into this one, but also because of what Hannah Kendrick shows Witch Central,
A Lost Witch, while the last of the Modern Witch series, is also a transition point, Geary will be back later this year with our favorite witches in a new series, In A Lost Witch, she appears to be laying the foundation for some of the future possible stories,
If youve read any of my previous reviews of Gearys books, you know it is the sense of community and love that I most enjoy in the books.
Theres no shortage of that in A Lost Witch, and I think arguably even more, given what happens at the end of the book,
Gearys characters continue to grow and evolve, which is needed in any progressive series or the reader just gets bored, And as the series progresses, Geary has showed more vulnerability in some of the main characters, particularly Nell, which adds a sense of realism to a series that makes it seem as though none of us should be too surprised to find witches in our midst.
The Modern Witch stories above all celebrate love, loyalty, family chosen or birth, and whimsy, A Lost Witch is full of all of these, and surprising wisdom and insight from the youngest members of Witch Central, I think most of us would be a lot happier if we played more like Witch Central citizens do,
A Lost Witch ends the Modern Witch series on a high note, and lays the threads of what is to come, I, for one, am counting the days until September and the first of the new series,

I don't think I've read a book in this series that didn't make me tear up, Ms. Geary needs to be in print so those without ereaders can experience the amazing world she's created, My heart truly believes these characters live, breathe, exist, Heck, I'm halfway in love with Marcus myself!

It was nice to be back in Witch Central, familiar faces make me feel like I went home, This time the fetching spell caught someone else, Nell was turning it off when she found that it was pulling her in, Finding out that the witch it was fetching was actually in a mental institution, and she could very well cause more problems for a certain boy witch genius.
Hannah didn't know what her attacks were but she knew that she didn't like them, She would see things, sometimes they would come true, Glimpses of the future, she thought, It scared her, she would see multiple things, death or births, Having gone in to the institution atshe has grown up there, she weaves with her loom and she doesn't meet new people because they trigger her attacks.
One day though she is told that someone has come that could help her live again, Outside of the walls of the institution, and so she goes with Lauren and Tabitha back to Berkeley, They've figured out that if they can clamp off the area in her mind that causes her attacks precog then they can help her learn to use her powers.
Hannah has no problem learning shes a witch, I mean she's lived in a mental home for twelve years where she's thought she was crazy, Being a witch is a step up really!
Knowing that this was the last one of this particular series didn't make me want to read it slower and savor it.
In fact I couldn't stop reading it, I loved Hannah, even though she thought she was weak she was brave and despite being scared a lot of the time she stood up and followed the directions of the people trying to help her.
The witches in Witch Central took to Hannah as well, She was welcomed by everyone except maybe Nell, I loved Nell in the first few books and then she just got judgy and mean to people not in her inner circle, I understand wanting to protect her family but she did it with the others that the spell fetched except for Lauren, These books though, they make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, Watching Hannah's journey and discovery of herself was awesome and I'm hoping you'll want to read it too, This book was a total five for me,
Check out all of A Modern Witch Series, You really won't be disappointed! Another perfectly witchy book!
The entire Witch Central gang is getting ready for Marcus wedding in Nova Scotia when Nell finds the tracking spell has found another witch who needs their help.
Nell tracks down the witch who has sent the message “help” from a sanitarium,
Hannah Kendrick is that witch, She has huge seizure like episodes when meeting new people, Hannah is a witch who doesnt know she is a witch or how to control her powers, Hannah is blessed with a huge amount of courage which she and Witch Centrals mind trust need to figure out and deal with Hannahs power, The road to finding the control of that power is filled with new friends, trust, pain, tears, love and belonging like only Witch Central gives,
Lauren takes point on most of these fronts as the strongest mind witch, She finds that Hannahs power comes with a punch that hits her hard from all sides, There are many changes in the beliefs of the entire coven with this story, The power of magic is changing and with the lives of Witch Central will have to adapt to keep themselves and those they love safe,
This was a nice wrap up to the series with a great foundation for the next series that Ms, Geary is promising. I look forward to the next series, I am not ready to leave Witch Central, I always have mixed emotions at the end of each story, I enjoy the ending but am sad that it is over, I truly recommend all the books regarding Witch Central, they will suck you right in just like magic,
last in the series, and perhaps the most powerful, And saddest. Hannah has spent the lastyears, since she wasyo, in an insane asylum fighting to control the visions that threaten to drive her insane, On the eave of Marcus and Cassidys wedding in Nova Scotia, Hannah floats a message into the internet “Help Me” leading to her being fetched to the Sullivans.
The Sullivans start a rescue, in the process discovering that Hannah suffers, quite literally, from precognition the ability to see the future or what could be the future triggered by faces, especially new faces.
It is a very old magical power and flows incredibly strongly in Hannah, The goal of the Sullivans is to help Hannah learn to control it to retain her sanity and allow her to live a normal life in the world.
This is a wonderful but dark story, as it references a darker history of magic, As always in this series, the plot takes unexpected turns and twists Hannah is a gifted weaver, something that ultimately she uses in the final scenes of her wresting her life and sanity from this incredibly powerful and dark magic of precognition.
And there is one awesome wedding offavorite characters and the creation of a family for one lavender eyed little girl, If you could look into the eyes of a stranger and see their future, would it be a blessing or a curse For Hannah Kendrick, that very "gift" has tortured her for twelve long years, imprisoning her in a psychiatric hospital and leaving her labeled as "helpless" and "crazy.
" But is she Or is she only the possessor of a magic that comes with its own special pain
Witch Central is gathering for a longawaited and much anticipated event: the wedding of Marcus and Cassidy.
The once crotchety bachelor can't wipe the grin of his face and all of the community is sharing in and celebrating his newfound happiness and joy, Into their midst, Hannah is fetched, bringing with her the biggest threat that the tightknit Sullivan family has ever known, As they always have, they welcome her with open arms and gather behind her to help her fight the curse that has plagued her for so long, But when it begins to threaten their own, will they remain strong for battle Or will their resolve falter in the face of the most frightening thing they've ever fought
The final novel in the Modern Witch series but thankfully NOT the final book about the Witch Central community, A Lost Witch brings together all of the characters that Geary's fans have come to know and love.
Lauren, Nat, Jamie, Nell, Caro, Moira, Marcus, Morgan, Retha, . . the list goes on. Capturing perfectly the love and loyalty of this special community, the book is everything that I've come to expect from Debora, Full of wisdom and light and hope, it is the perfect end to the series and one that fans should not miss!! Five as always, and well deserving of every one.
My favorite quotes, . . and there were many
"There is no shame in stopping, learning and trying again, "
"We shape those we love, and we share in who they become, "
"every moment you can live vibrantly in the present is a victory, " I stumbled across Debora Geary some time ago because I was asked to review a paranormal genre book of my choice for another website, I took a chance on her because I wanted the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone, I have never been disappointed, In the final book of the Modern Witch Series, we are introduced to Hannah Kendrick, a lost witch who has been institutionalized because she can't meet new people without collapsing in fear.
The fetching spell, monitored by Nell, picks up on a signal of help Hannah has sent out over the internet, and nothing will be the same for Hannah ever again.
She's been fighting to save her sanity for a very long time and perhaps this is her last chance, With the help of Nell and all of the family, Hannah will be able to beat the demons she has faced all of her life,
Like in previous Modern Witch stories, Ms, Geary is brilliant in finding the lost soul in need of help from the Witch Community held within the pages of these books, Each has pulled something out of life and told a tale in a way that is understandable and relatable, and well, . . modern. While many would not want to read about these things, the stories are not morbid, sad or even scary, They are exciting, invigorating and enlightening,
Since A Lost Witch is the final book in the series, do yourself a favor and take the time to reread them all because they all play off of each other.
They are all well worth the read! Rating:
Deborah Geary is a truely gifted author! I can honestly say she is my number one favorite writer.
As with all her Modern Witch books, I totally fell in love with the story right from page one, The story has all my Witch Central favorite characters and a new one named Hannah who is such a sweet soul, She has spent the lastyears in a mental institution battling what turns out to be precognition magic, Its really the worst kind of magic to have because its impossible to control amp not always accurate, The fetching spell finds her and our resident witch friends, family's amp trainers, young amp old step into high gear to help their new witch friend,
This book was a tear jerker for me in so many places, I was so touched by the story that I just know it will stay with me for a very long time, It was a fitting, emotional ending to a fabulous series,
Thank goodness she has started another series with our beloved characters or I would surely suffer from tragic amp eternal sadness and withdrawal :,
