Practical Magic , but is it though?

Grab your midnight margaritas, ladies, because this week on Romance at a Glance, Bridget and Shani are getting witchy with Alice Hoffman's Practical Magic and its cult-classic film adaptation! We're talking generational curses, questionable taste in men, sisterhood, accidental murder, and why hiding a dead body might actually be the ultimate sibling bonding experience. But does the book cast a spell, or is it just 300 pages of describing the garden? And how did Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, and a little Hollywood magic manage to make the movie more enchanting than the source material? We're breaking down everything the filmmakers changed, what they got right, and whether this beloved Halloween staple deserves its cult following. Spoiler alert: The movie brought the magic, but the book might need a stronger potion.
