The Book of Magic by Alice Hoffman (Paperback)

For generations, the Owens family has lived under a curse that dooms anyone who loves them. When Aunt Jet Owens hears the sound of the deathwatch beetle, she knows time is running out. With only days left, she uncovers a possible way to end the curse that has defined their family for centuries.

At the same time, a younger member of the Owens line, unaware of the full truth behind her family’s past, falls in love—placing that relationship directly in danger. As the curse threatens to strike again, the family is forced to act.

Three generations come together, returning to the origins of the spell in a final attempt to break it. But undoing something so deeply rooted comes with risk, and the cost may be greater than they are prepared to face.

In this final Practical Magic book, love, sacrifice, and family legacy collide as the Owens women confront the curse that has shaped their lives and decide what they are willing to give up to change their future.
