Discover the enchanting world of "Practical Magic" by Alice Hoffman. Dive into a spellbinding tale of love, mystery, and witchcraft.

Practical Magic

Author: Alice Hoffman

In a quaint New England town, two sisters grapple with their magical heritage and a family curse. Gillian, wild and restless, flees their ancestral home, while Sally craves normalcy. But when tragedy strikes, they’re drawn back together, confronting their powers and the whispers of the past. Hoffman weaves a spellbinding tale of love, loss, and the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood, infused with a touch of whimsy and the bittersweet scent of midnight blooms. A bewitching story that lingers long after the final page.

There are some things, after all, that Sally Owens knows for certain: Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Add pepper to your mashed potatoes. Plant roses and lavender, for luck. Fall in love whenever you can.
