Many villagers, desperate for help and facing limited medical resources, sought out Sarah's assistance in times of physical and emotional distress. Sarah's reputation as a helpful witch grew, and even some of the accusers who were responsible for the imprisonment and execution of alleged witches sought her help when they fell ill. Despite the risks involved in aiding those who had condemned her, Sarah could not turn her back on those in need. It is important to note that the belief in witches and witchcraft during this time was based on superstition and fear. Many innocent people were falsely accused and executed. The helpful witches were caught in a system that demanded their persecution, yet they continued to use their alleged powers for the greater good. While Sarah Good's actions were seen as controversial and questionable by some, there were many who believed that she was a beacon of light in a dark time. Her ability to heal and console the afflicted provided a glimmer of hope and comfort to a community torn apart by fear and paranoia. Though the events of the Salem Witch Trials are a dark chapter in American history, the stories of helpful witches like Sarah Good remind us that even in the most troubling times, there can be individuals who use their supposed powers for the betterment of others. The tales of these helpful witches serve as a testament to the resilience and compassion of the human spirit..

"The helpful witch of salem" had potential but failed to deliver. The concept of a helpful witch in Salem was intriguing, but the execution fell flat. The pacing was slow and the story lacked suspense. The characters were forgettable and their motivations were unclear. I was hoping for a more engaging and captivating read.

The plot dragged on and had unnecessary subplots that didn't add anything meaningful to the story. The ending was unsatisfying, leaving me with more questions than answers. Overall, I found this book to be a waste of time.
