    Gen and Jette talk about The Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffman, a prequel to Practical Magic. The book follows the Owens' siblings through their lives, the ups and downs and other complications that come along with being witches. If you hear any crinkling in the background, it's just our resident PodCat, Cypher, eating her dinner. Book Revelation - Vincent and William live "happily ever after" because Vincent is the first wizard in the family and NOT an Owens' woman so the curse does not apply!!!! Lees meer
