Talk about revisiting your childhood! I have loved Hocus Pocus since the very first time I saw it. I watch it multiple times around Halloween each year and many times throughout the year as well. I loved being about to revisit one of my favorite childhood movies in written form, but even better than that was the continuation of the story in Max and Allison's (YES MAX AND ALLISON'S!!!) daughter and her friends!

Interesting to me, was the fact that one of the bullys from the original movie was now principal with a bullyish daughter. Funny how things come full circle like that, both in literature and in real life sometimes! I enjoyed the friendships that Poppy had and how in the end a group of seemingly misdirected kids were able to pull together and ultimately save the day.

The best though, the absolute best, is that the ending is left so very wide open for further sequels! I would read as many as they are willing to write!
