Unforgettable

By Thriftbooks.com User, October 30, 2006

I first read this novel when it was published in 1992 and have reread it periodically. It never fails to cast its spell. Hoffman is a writer of great subtlety. It is easy to gobble up her books but, if you do, you miss much of their charm. The clarity of her prose and her talent for hovering on the edge of the magical is so perfectly balanced that you find yourself taking the most impossible occurrences for granted. I love...

Resurrection

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 15, 2002

We discover one character after another--Julian, Keith, Lucy, Arrow--to be among the walking dead, shut out, by their...

Simply MAGIC!!!!

By Thriftbooks.com User, February 18, 2001

I highly recommend it.This story takes place in Verity , Florida, where more divorced women live than in any other town in Florida. Verity itself is one of the characters, it seems: hot, sultry, sweat-soaked. Hoffman's descriptions make you feel the unrelenting heat, see the ripples of heated air, and hear the insects buzzing lazily in the...

Another special book from Alice Hoffman!

By Thriftbooks.com User, August 30, 2000

It would appear that I have arrived late at the party since Turtle Moon is only the third book I've read by Alice Hoffman. And while Practical Magic will most likely always remain my favorite, Turtle Moon, will be a close second. Once again as she does in her other books Alice Hoffman presents her readers with wonderful characters who remain with one long after they close the book. In Turtle Moon, she also describes...
