You end up falling in love with the characters like they are you own Sisters (note the capital S)
Only read if you are okay with crying for ten minutes at various parts of the book (this happened to me both times I read it!)
It has an amazing plot with lots of plot twists that grip and pull you into the story and dont let you go until its done
I wish this book had a sequal!
Also the writing style is amazing, there is the perfect amount of description to allow you to imagine sort of the more fine details in how a character looks for example but also gives you a good base
the settings are also described in this way
I cant tell you how much I love this book tbh it changed the way I look at everything and changed my life too!
I highly recommend to any feminist out there.
Let the fire inside your heart continue to burn and let this book help it to burn brighter with fury, love, hate and hope.

No es un secreto para nadie que los libros de brujas son mi debilidad. Son el personaje arquetípico fantástico en el que me veo reflejada. Y no es un secreto para nadie que el periodo histórico del sufragismo femenino me resulta fascinante.
Por estos motivos cuando Alix E. Harrow presento "Las brujas del ayer y del mañana" supe que tenía me corazón. Ya conocía a la autora por "Las diez mil puertas de Enero", que me gustó mucho también...pero en esta novela me ha hechizado.
Todo buen hechizo necesita tres cosas: Palabras, componentes y voluntad...y Harrow ha encontrado el suyo para hechizarme: Sonoridad, rabia y lucha contra la injusticia.
Este es uno de esos libros para tener en físico. Y lo conseguiré.
EN:
Witches are real...and from now on, I am one of them.
The tale of the Eastwood sisters, with the rage of a fire has captured my heart. In this story about women rights, sorority and witchcraft, Alix E. Harrow has built me a personal portal to my refuge in stressing times. Her prose was the protection spell I needed and know she is one of my favourite authors.
The problem is... now I do not know how to cope without my favourite withes.
