The spellbinding story, focusing on the strength of family bonds through joy and sorrow, will appeal to a broad range of readers. Fans of Practical Magic will be bewitched."-Publishers Weekly (starred review)

The Rules of Magic is no exception-as I tumbled into the story of three siblings desperate for and cursed by love, I never wanted to awaken."-Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author of Small Great Things

"No one's more confident or entertaining than Hoffman at putting across characters willing to tempt fate for true love. Real events like the Vietnam draft and Stonewall uprising enter the characters' family history as well as a stunning plot twist-delivering everything fans of a much-loved book could hope for in a prequel."-Kirkus Reviews
