Everyday Enchantment: Talking Magical Realism with Jennifer Moorman

This week on Chapter Chat, author Jennifer Moorman discusses her newest release, The Charmed Library. Together, we dive into the heart of magical realism, a genre where the extraordinary slips into the ordinary just enough to change what we notice, what we believe, and what we’re brave enough to imagine. Jennifer shares the inspiration behind The Charmed Library, what draws her to stories rooted in wonder, and why “magic” doesn’t have to mean wands and spells. It can be the moments that crack open our routines and remind us we’re alive. From the emotional resonance of place to the way books help us find our way back to ourselves, this conversation is an invitation to look for enchantment in the world around us. If you’ve ever needed a story that feels like a warm light in a familiar room, this episode is for you.
