Strega – Magic: The Spirit Never Dies by Lynne Russell – Review by Erica Shoebridge

Strega – Magic: The Spirit Never Dies by Lynne Russell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A very well-written novel that follows the women of the Ciofani family through time. These ‘wise women’ are intuitive, intelligent, romantic and strong – they are young independent women and the backbones of their families. I really enjoyed following the women that Russell drew for us, and the choices that determined their fates. The lush descriptions of Italy and Italian family tradition had me eating pasta and drinking wine three nights in a row… never a bad decision. The plot was very engaging and the way the authour was able to bring the past to life was gorgeous. Definitely recommend!
