"It was like the way you wanted sunshine on Saturdays, or pancakes for breakfast. They just made you feel good." 
 As a fan of Magical Realism, Sarah Addison Allen's book came as a balm to me during a really rough time. It's a light read - I finished it in almost 2 days to read at quite a leisurely pace - and is quite smooth to go through. 
 Her characters are cute, somehow resemble the sisters in Practical Magic if you ask me, and her story fits properly into the real world. I liked this book so much, especially that the sisters aren't "witches" in the obvious sense. I mean, you always have that "really, now?" going on. Are they really witches or is it just fancy or maybe it's just really strong intuition? 
 Anyone can pick up this book and read it, even if they're not so much into this genre. The reality of how the sisters are living, how Sydney was abused, how her daughter suffers, and how Claire's insecure about herself is so relateable to most girls today. 
 Generally, I'd recommend this book to anyone who's looking for something easy and sweet to lighten their mood.
