I started reading this last night and can not believe it’s been in my library all these eight years and I’m just now getting around to reading it. Hoffman also wrote Practical Magic - remember? “….keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for good luck, and fall in love whenever you can".  Now do you remember?

Madness to have had this and not once picked it up to read. Goes to prove: the book will know when you are ready.

The setting is a small fictional town near Boston, Massachusetts - three generations of eccentric women, each born in the month of March, with special gifts bestowed upon them on their thirteenth birthdays, and an old Victorian house. I’m loving the magical mystical tour so far. Oh, and did I mention, a murder?
