...an enchanting book

"Above all remember this: that magic belongs as much to the heart as to the head and everything which is done, should be from love or joy or righteous anger."

I don't know if I believe in magic, but I do believe in love and that all things should be done with the best of intentions. :)

I love this collection of short stories. You can read a review about The Ladies of Grace Adieu right here:
