Rock Candy, Paper Stars, and Scissor Kisses are Devon Monk’s shorter companion pieces to the Ordinary Magic series, published in 2017 and 2018 during the most active period of that series’ run. The three novellas and short stories are set in the same Ordinary, Oregon world as the main series and give additional time with the characters between full-length novels.
They are aimed at readers who are already following the series and want more of the world between the main entries. New readers are better served starting with Death and Relaxation before returning to these shorter pieces.
