Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman

2.0

This book was only ok for me. The writing style was very bland to me and a lot of the book felt like a really long prologue or summary of their lives instead of a journey I was on with them. Once the action started it seemed there was very little payoff for all the buildup. I don’t know if it’s because I saw the movie a long time ago so I knew kind of what was going to happen, but the climax of the story resolved itself too quickly. I also was not a fan of everyone falling in love at first sight with all of the Owens women. I was hoping for more.
