Practical Magic is a captivating story about two sisters, Gillian and Sally Owens, who are descended from a long line of witches. Raised by their eccentric aunts in a small town in Massachusetts, the sisters encounter prejudice and fear from their neighbors due to their family's magical heritage.
The sisters attempt to live normal lives, but their family heritage and magical abilities keep them from fitting in. Gillian, the younger sister, is carefree and embraces witchcraft, while Sally, the elder sister, tries to suppress her magical side.
The novel explores themes of family, love, loss, and the power of female friendship. It's a delightful and heartwarming story that has become a modern classic.
The novel has also spawned several sequels, including The Rules of Magic (2017), Magic Lessons (2020), and The Book of Magic (2021). These books delve deeper into the history of the Owens family and explore the lives of other characters from the original novel.
Practical Magic has been adapted into a popular 1998 film starring Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. I hope to see it in a few days
