    One thing I love about your channel is that I find out about movies that I didn't know were based on books. Usually I read the book before seeing the movie, but now I'm reading books AFTER seeing the movies . . .
    Update: Love your outfit!

    In the movie Sally moves back in with her aunts after her husband dies, they don't go over for a drink they already live together. Sally also doesn't call the aunts to save Jillian they come bk from their trip. Sally calls the women on the phone tree

    Ringo is an adorable rabbit. Much cuter and I'm sure a better drummer than my rabbit Pete Best. Enjoyed your Ripley video yesterday. Left a nice comment and TH-cam deleted it. Don't understand why. Watched Practical Magic on a plane years ago without sound through the crack between seats of passenger in front of me. Enjoyable !!!

      @@WhytheBookWins Watched first episode of Ripley over weekend but just wasn't in mood for a slow burn drama. Will watch remainder seven episodes one rainy day for one reason....Andrew Scott. 1999's Talented Mr. Ripley is in my Top Ten of all time. Can still hear in my head Phillip Seymour Hoffman voice saying "Tommy how's the peeping". Miss that guy so much. Fun Fact: I haven't stepped inside a row boat now for 25 years since seeing that film. 😎

    The Alice Hoffman book The Rules of Magic is the best in the series. It’s about the aunts and their lives. There’s more magic in it too. Practical magic is actually the weakest of all of them. The whole series is really great expect for Practical Magic. The prequel about Rebecca Owen’s is good too.

      The Rules of Magic also speaks more about the family curse regarding love ending in tragedy.

    I have read all 4 books in the Practical Magic saga. I agree, the 1st book (I mean 1st published, not the order of events) could have been soooo much more. Not a bad book, but SO different from the movie and other books. My least favorite. On the other side, the movie is a master piece. I have the feeling that the author saw how the public received the movie and changed her way of telling the story. Even the way she writes after that is completely different, almost like another person. The other 3 books are way better, I think you'll like them. The precuel is good. It is more historical fiction and has witchcraft. Then comes the book about the lives of the aunts, the Rules of Magic. This one is by far my favorite. It broke me. It is so heartwarming and yet so sad. Grab the tissues! Then, the last book, which would come after the movie... It felt a little rushed. It is more on the adventure side. But it was fun.

      Thanks for sharing! That's interesting to hear how much her style changed after the movie.

    This is one of my favorite movies & I didn’t know it was based on a book! The movie definitely sounds better, especially since it has a more witchy/supernatural element which were the best parts.

    The movie is definitely better than the novel. I also think if you see the movie before reading the novel you will definitely be disappointed. The novel definitely has some smooth lines but nothing really happens in the book. The movie is classic with a great soundtrack

    I mostly hated the movie because of the dumb decisions. Sally made this man is drunk outside the vehicle but yet you’re still being held hostage just drive away. He’s not in the car.
