Ep. 168: Practical Magic | The Practical Magic Book Summary Series (Book 3)

In the third installment of our Practical Magic Book Summary Series, we're revisiting the novel that started it all—Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman. First published in 1995 and later adapted into the beloved 1998 film, this is the story that introduced us to the Owens women, their family curse, and the magic that has captivated generations of readers and movie lovers alike.

Whether you're rereading the books, discovering them for the first time, or simply want a refresher before the new film arrives in theaters this September, we've got you covered.

In this episode, we explore:

✨ A note from Alice Hoffman

✨ Character breakdowns

✨ Timeline & story structure

✨ A complete summary of Practical Magic

✨ The story threads that continue into the rest of the Owens family saga

Pour yourself a Midnight Margarita, settle into Magnolia Street, and join us as we return to the book that began the magic.
