Join us for the first regular meeting of our new book club, Books & Banter! This month, we will be reading, "Practical Magic" by Alice Hoffman.
"… a scrim of magic lies gently over her fictional world, in which lilacs bloom riotously in July, a lovesick boy's elbows sizzle on a diner countertop and a toad expectorates a silver ring. The real and the magical worlds are almost seamlessly mixed here, the humor is sharper than in previous books, the characters' eccentricities grow credibly out of their past experiences and the poignant lessons they learn reverberate against the reader's heartstrings, stroked by Hoffman's lyrical prose... Readers will relish this magical tale." (Publisher's Weekly)
