Reviews
'Sarah Painter is a talented new writer, and her debut is a charming, romantic and intriguing story, with a little touch of magic. It had me enchanted.'
- Clodagh Murphy, author of Frisky Business and Girl in a Spin
'This really was a fantastic debut novel. I honestly could not put it down.'
'utterly enchanting'
- The Madwoman in the Attic
'This is a little gem of a book, and every time I had to put it down I was sad because I just wanted to continue reading and get it finished because it was that enjoyable! The Language of Spells is a really great novel so do pick it up, it's well worth your time!'
The plot had great twists and turns and when I thought I had the story figured out, the story would go in a different direction and surprise me. I didn't want to put it down and the further I got into the book, the harder it was to stop reading. A wonderful debut novel and I'm looking forward to reading the next one.
