Part 1 was just like the movie and well as I was reading, the movie played in my head … Who doesn't love a witch story during the month of October with Halloween around the corner?
There was one difference in that a 4th sister is introduced .. Elizabeth, who is written as the good sister!!!
Part 2 dragged a little but was an exciting twist on a continuation of the Sanderson Sisters and All Hallows Eve. It takes you to present time and introduces us to old characters from the first and original story line but adds new characters like Max's and Allison's daughter Poppy. It also added things relative to now such as the lingo and a lesbian crush.
This definitely was a great story line of finding a blood moonstone which is needed for a spell for eternal life. And the spell book makes an entrance in style with one of the characters being a descendant of a witch!!
The writing style was an easy read, characters were current and relatable to now from the technology to the way they talk and act.
Fanfiction is what I felt like I was reading and I liked that about this book!!!! A fun filled, magical read for Hocus Pocus lovers and readers who just want a fun entertaining book for Halloween and not blood and gore!!!
Was fun to enter the world of the Sanderson sisters once again!!!!

Brandon Sanderson is one of the most significant fantasists to enter the field in a good many years....
science fiction scifi
This appealed to me greatly - showing how someone with true photographic memory might deal with it by pretending to themselves that something they had read years ago and somehow memorised were actually the input from experts in that field (who are dreamt up out of necessity) - so the madness actually arises in order to stay sane!
The book was quite short for my liking, it felt a little like Sanderson dipping his toe to test the waters in the real world.
A really interesting concept, not given the time and effort it might have merited.
