Pinch of Magic

I love this book – it’s really good! It’s like Harry Potter, but more interesting! The plot is better, like how there’s an old curse and a creepy tower. The story goes back and forth in time, and the two parts come together in a really exciting way. I also like how the littlest sister, Charlie, goes back in time to get more food because she was hungry. I would do the same thing! I think Charlie is my hero!

I like this plot better than Harry Potter because it’s action combined with mystery combined with magic. The characters are nicer. In spite of the curse, the story is not dark and depressing. I like the sisters’ three magic objects. They’re a traveling bag, a matryoshki doll, and a gilt-framed mirror. I can’t tell you how they got their magic, because that would ruin the suspense! I wonder how it would look to travel back in time with the bag? That’s something I would like to do.

Something unusual about this book is that the main characters are all girls. The only bad thing is that there aren’t any sequels! I want to read lots more of these books. Get this book, you won’t regret it!
