Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman
mysterious
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
2.0
I never would have expected a book with magic in the title to be so mundane. I was bored out of my mind reading this and probably should’ve DNFed. I think because it’s a cult classic I was waiting for it to get good, and it just never did. The magic system, frequent insta-love, and good sister bad sister dichotomy all didn’t work for me. But above all the plot was just painfully slow and dull.
