"I love Alice Hoffman. Full of Hoffman's bewitching and lucid prose and vivid characters, The Book of Magic is ultimately about the very human magic of family and love and actions that echo through generations. Filled with secrets and splendor and light and dark, the novel works as well as a stand-alone as it does as a conclusion to a mesmerizing series. It casts a spell." -- MATT HAIG, New York Times best-selling author of The Midnight Library, "Some stories begin at the beginning and others begin at the end." So opens The Book of Magic , the final installment of Alice Hoffman's popular Practical Magic series, a page-turning fairy tale of a saga that spans three books, one star-studded movie adaptation and multiple centuries of adventure and misadventure, love lost and found and bottomless cauldrons of sorcery in the lives of the bewitchingly witchy Owens family....like the witches who populate her stories, Hoffman certainly knows how to enchant." -- NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW, "I love Alice Hoffman.

Synopsis
"Hoffman certainly knows how to enchant" ( The New York Times Book Review ) in this breathtaking conclusion to the Practical Magic series--a spellbinding and bewitching novel that asks how far will you go to change your fate? For over three-hundred years a curse has kept the Owens family from love--but all of that is about to change. The novel begins in a library, the best place for a story to be conjured, when beloved aunt Jet Owens hears the deathwatch beetle and knows she has only seven days to live. Jet is not the only one in danger--the curse is already at work. A frantic attempt to save a young man's life spurs three generations of the Owens women, and one long-lost brother, to use their unusual gifts to break the curse as they travel from Paris to London to the English countryside where their ancestor Maria Owens first practiced the Unnamed Art. The younger generation discovers secrets that have been hidden from them in matters of both magic and love by Sally, their fiercely protective mother. As Kylie Owens uncovers the truth about who she is and what her own dark powers are, her aunt Franny comes to understand that she is ready to sacrifice everything for her family, and Sally Owens realizes that she is willing to give up everything for love. A heartfelt and satisfying conclusion to a beloved series, The Book of Magic celebrates mothers and daughters, sisters and brothers, and anyone who has ever been in love., Master storyteller Alice Hoffman brings us the conclusion of the Practical Magic series in a spellbinding and enchanting final Owens novel brimming with lyric beauty and vivid characters.

      Book arrived quickly (most likely due to being a neighboring state). It was in great condition and had a book jacket. I did contact the seller to confirm that it included the sleeve. They answered quickly but did not answer my question. Just copy and pasted the info about the product which included an "Unknown" regarding the book jacket. Not helpful at all. Also, came from Half Price Books in MN.
