I never read Practical Magic but I looooove the movie. The movie does reference the Owens descendant that passed on the magical curse.....and has a little showing of the men who loved her lol. I wonder if the Magic Lessons will get into that. We shall see.

Good luck getting your copy

Look for a the book discussion topic to open up mid January!

I'm thinking of opening a spoiler-free topic discussion about the book in the meantime....

I think that a spoiler-free thread is a great idea! I will admit I've never even seen the movie.

So I finally got my copy!
Doesn't the woman on the cover totally look like Lisa Bonet??


Lauri (lauriwatkins) | 80 comments Mod
Mine arrived today. Looking forward to starting this week.

And now that you've said that about the cover, I cannot unsee Lisa Bonet!


Marla Craft | 4 comments Sorry guys, just catching up on this discussion. Clarify for me, Which book are we reading and what is the timing. I’ll get the rhythm here pretty soon

No problem. If you are only on the app, goodreads can be hard to find the full information, particularly. We are starting Magic Lessons by Alice Hoffman now. This is just a spoiler-free place to chat about it before or as we read. No plot or spoilers please. We will start officially chatting about the book in mid-January so no rush! 😀

I will say the night before last I stayed up an extra hour to read the first two chapters and I’m hooked. Looking forward to some downtime these next few days!

What is everyone else reading right now?

Good to hear about the first two chapters!

I am trying to finish up Valley of the Horses by Jean Auel but it just went from "Woman Who Runs with Wolves" to a really cheesy Harlequin story. Blahhh...if they would just hurry up and get it on already!!

I also thought I could squeeze in Illuminae Vol 1 because the format make it looked like a quick read....which it kinda is but I didn't have the forethought to think the holidays would take up my time too lol

Then there's a couple non-fiction but those are always grinding on their own in the background.

I plan on starting our club read by New Years :)

Amanda | 1 comments Hello! Just downloaded the book tonight now that holiday festivities are over. Hoping I can keep up while working and being in school!

I’m pretty excited about this book. I love Practical Magic. The movie that is. Never read the book but I might depending on how much I like this one.
