5 stars. Amazing. This beautiful book is a prequel to ‘Practical Magic’, and the two tie together quite nicely. This time we’re following the lives of the aunts and their little brother Vincent as they navigate love, grief and everything in between. The world Hoffman has built is stunning and the characters are nuanced, flawed and very realistic. As soon as I had finished the book, I wanted to dive right back into it again. I think it’s definitely time to give ‘Practical Magic’ another spin as well.
