A Modern Witch #3.5

A Witch Central Wedding

Rate this book
It's a Witch Central wedding - and you're invited :).

This is a short read, about the length of two chapters in my series books. Not a short story, really - more like a snapshot. The chance to share in an important moment in the lives of your favorite witches.

This should be read between A Reckless Witch and A Nomadic Witch. Enjoy the wedding!

This is really a short story/novella, but for fans of Debora Geary's Modern Witch series, it's a fun interlude and we get to find out about the Lauren and Devin's wedding, which happens between the third and fourth books in the series. So don't read this until you have read A Reckless Witch!

I liked it and I wouldn't have skipped it since I usually try to read everything in a series in order, but for me, it would have been more enjoyable to have the wedding incorporated into one of the longer books so that there could be more story around it. I do love a wedding though and this was yet another light and happy read.

Aw. This story is so sweet! Debora Geary listened to complaints that the latest book in her Witch Central series took place after the wedding of two beloved characters while the book before that took place before the wedding - so this story takes place in between A Reckless Witch & A Nomadic Witch, and it is the story of that wedding. It's written with Geary's typical loving kindness and it gives us yet more insight into the lives of the witches & witchlings that inhabit her world. Very atmospheric, not much in the way of plot, intended for fans of the series & a lovely treat for us.

Just like the author said it's a short snippet about Lauren and Devin's wedding. Just nice and cuddly, if you can't get enough. Maybe 30 pages? And of course I read it out of order :P

I love everything written by Debora Geary

I've read all the books written by Debora Geary and Audrey Faye. I own the Modern Witch series except for volume 8. I've read it and I would like to read it again but it's been removed from the internet. I understand it brings up sad associations for the author but I truly wish she would consider releasing the Modern Witch series again. I also have all the other books she's written.

Lauren, who found in water witch Devin Sullivan her true love in A Reckless Witch, is getting married. It’s short – could easily have been added to A Reckless Witch, provides mostly an opportunity to see more of the characters at a joyous occasion – and learn all about what makes up a witch wedding ceremony – flying broomsticks anyone?

Ohhhh, the day that we were waiting for since A Reckless Witch, Lauren makes a responsible man out of our reckless Devin Sullivan and he is scared out of his mind. Going to his favorite deserted stretch of beach – or having his brother teleport him there – and grounding and centering himself in a lifelong ceremony isn’t enough to calm his nerves. He shouldn’t fear that his new bride will take him away from his beloved ocean, Lauren knows him too well.

Lauren spends most of the morning making sure that their new house on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean is ready for her new husband. Then she gives into the triplets and their ideas of wedding planning, while making sure that she doesn’t let Aervyn know that he is teaching her father to ride a broom so they could come up the isle that way. Yes, we finally get to meet her parents, non-witches that they are, they love their daughter enough to embrace what she has become and handle it well, including the witchling antics that go on around Witch Central. We also get to meet more fully Michael – non-witch father of the Sullivan’s – and Retha their water witch mother. Who Devin planned their wedding for the day she decided to take the crone title so that she would be one of the Elder females to lead the circle for the blessing on his marriage.

This was a wonderful light glimpse into the lives of our witches when a crisis was not upon them – well, don’t tell Devin that - and they are celebrating a normal happening, if you can call a witches circle, flying broom sticks and teleporting up and down the beach normal, and a very special day with our first witch. I loved the romance that seeped into this book, the love that flowed out each separate page. Another rating of five stars. If you reading this series, you must pick this one up, a great addition to the series.

Hidden Witch (Modern Witch #2)

The star rating given reflects my opinion within ‘the official goodreads rating system’.

1 star: Didn’t Like it
2 stars: It’s Okay
3 stars: Liked it
4 stars: Really Liked it
5 stars: It Was Amazing

I don’t really give a rat-fuck that there are some who think I ‘owe’ an explanation for my opinion. Nope, nada, and not sorry about it.

Sometimes I may add notes to explain what my opinions are based on, and sometimes I don’t. I do this for me, on my books, in my library and I don’t ‘owe’ any special snowflakes a thing. Fuck off if you don’t like it and stop reading my shit.

Particularly given the ‘modifications’ to reader’s personal content going on (and outright censorship), unless particularly motivated I will not comment in detail.

It would help if GR was forthcoming in the new ‘appropriate’ and would make a site-wide announcement delineating the new focus from a reader-centric site to one that is now for authors and selling.

on this day my love
I bring my heart
to stand with yours
in the magic of love
now and forever

Beautiful words to start a new life together with the one you love, isn't it? Two members of the witching community are heading there right now. Join Devon and Lauren and the whole clan gather together for an evening ceremony and surrounding them with all the love in the world.

This is a quick and easy read and just long enough to celebrate the magic! Ms. Geary also introduces a few new characters into the mix that we haven't seen before. Introducing Retha and Michael, parents to the Sullivan Triple Threat: Brothers Devin, Jamie and Matt. Glimpses into this family come from many different angles and it was so wonderful to see the non-witch community members getting into the spirit of a true witch wedding.

While this wasn't a full story, it was a celebratory moment that needed to be shared. We should all thank Ms. Geary for giving us this wonderful and rare gift.

Bells are ringing, friends are gathering, nerves are jangling and glitter - and love - is everywhere. It's time for a wedding! In a few short chapters, Ms. Geary gives us everything we've come to appreciate and adore about her novels: quirky and lovable characters that seem like family now, memorable and heart-warming scenes and a lot of laughter and light. She captures the magic of this brief moment in time with all its importance and joy. If you've fallen in love with this series, as I have, you certainly won't want to miss out on this wonderful addition. I've always thought that Debora was a unique author in her connection to her audience and her responsiveness to her readers. The very fact that she wrote this story expressly for us reminded me of that and made me even more thankful for her lovely books!

This is one of those bonuses that authors sometimes create for fans of a series. This is not a novel but a short story, telling the story of the wedding between Lauren and Devin, characters we've come to know. It's a sweet story, full of the love and friendship that characterize all the Witch Central books. In the time line, it falls between A Reckless Witch and A Nomadic Witch.

It was awesome. Even though it was very short, I think that it showed how Devon changed throughout the book A Reckless Witch. At first, I thought Devon was a completely dangerous witch with good humor. I thought this because he would jump off of cliffs, ride 15 ft. waves, and cause a LOT of trouble! Then Lauren came into the picture. I realized how caring he really was. He was freaked out when Lauren was going to try and save those people in Asia because of the tsunami. He really cared about her. Devon, a guy who never thought he would be getting married, cared about Lauren so much that he asked her to marry him! Such a sweet wedding! :)

Heart melting

Lots of sweet sappy romantic prose. I never was one to cry at weddings, but with all the schmaltz, I just leaked & sniffled with a big sappy grin through most of it.

Spoiler

One small aberration, which doesn't really matter as it has no effect on any of the stories in the series.
In the first book of the series, Nell tells Lauren she has two non witch sister & three triplet brothers. In this story the author must have forgotten. She has Devin say Nell grew up with six brothers.
Since neither the three unnamed brothers or sisters make an appearance in any of the stories, the mix-up is inconsequential.

So far I have read all the books in order and I love them all, but when I came to this book I felt empty. When I go to wedding s, there is love and romance involving the bride and groom, in that there is a story. At the same time the guest themselves are always quite interesting with the stories of the couple which is about to start a life time of adventures themselves this book had none of this. For such a special occasion which could have been built up form lots angles I was truly disappointed in this book.

Before I start my review let me say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I really wanted to be a part of this very special moment & I must say that it was sooooo worth the wait.

Now on the review - this is short story to give us a glimpse into the lives of this quirky family. I love the way that everyone was included into such a sweet moment. This is really a book to read! It gives you the total package in ceremony that will bring happy tears to your eyes.

I love this series! Every book has been better than the last. You MUST read this series in order to fully understand and appreciate it. This is just a little morsel of a short story, but such a wonderful one! Such joy, love & humor surround Lauren & Devon's wedding. Had me in joyful tears. Such lovable characters! An excellent purchase, and for Amazon Prime customers, a great pick for your measly one free book a month.

I enjoy the Witch Central books - they are easy reading and so great for a break from more intense books or a more intense time in real life.

This is more of a short story/novella. It's about the wedding of one of my favorite characters in the books. But don't start with this book - there's no background on anyone and even though I've read all the books so far, I had to stop to remember some of the characters mentioned.

Good relaxing reading...

Gotta love a witch wedding in the Sullivan clan, especially when the bride and groom are clearly a surprise for everyone. Devin Sullivan has met his match in Lauren, a mind witch who can't be sweet talked. They fall hard for each other and this is a story about their wedding. With the entire Sullivan family and the witch community with them, Devin and Lauren tie the knot. Plenty of laughter and a few giggles along the way.

I've read all the A Modern Witch series books so far in order.

This one was just a super shot filler story to appease fan's wanting to see the wedding. I felt it was a bit too short for my liking compared to the other books, but it was nice to get a bit more background.

I read this yesterday coz I was ill, and I love Debora's books, they really cheer me up when I'm ill or just a bit down.

And this didn't fail to cheer me up.

this is the wedding between Lauren and Devin.
It was gorgeous! I loved it, I totally got the warm fuzzy feeling I get when I read the books in the "A Modern Witch" series.

Purely amazing. I loved every word :)

This is a short written to satisfy all the fans who cried "What happened to the wedding?!?". And it was exceptionally well done.

If you haven't read Debora Geary DO NOT start here. Whilst this book is gorgeous and captures the day well, if you know the various back stories the short will be that much richer a read for you.

This is a delightful glimpse into Devin and Lauren's special day.

I'm usually not a huge fan of short-stories, but when the setting and characters belong to a universe I already know and love, it's a different matter altogether. This was an adorable interlude, and I'm obviously a huge sap, because it had me reaching for my hanky more than once :)

So sweet - and at less than 30 pages, a very quick read as well. I finished it in my lunch break :)
