What can I say? I am definitely a sucker for books that contain everyday magic, sisters, and gardens.

A sweet, uncomplicated story with romance and a touch of magic. I read it straight through last night and really enjoyed it.

What a delightfully charming book! I had no clue what to expect when I picked it up, but loved it pretty much from the very first page (or audiobook equivalent ;) ).

This is the second book I've read from this author and I enjoyed it just as much as the first. She has a knack for weaving a story that is both charming and original.

The people of this tiny town of North Carolina are so real and relatable that you can’t help but fall in love with them.Claire, the main character, seems a no-nonsense sort, even though she owns a magical garden and learned...

I'm only just starting Chapter 3 and so far this book is exactly like Practical Magic. So much so that I don't know if I even want to continue reading it. If it were a longer book I don't think I would. Since it's fairly short I'll finish it and hope that along the way it veers off the already be...
