Inheriting Magic

My Journey Through Grief, Joy, Celebration & Making Every Day Magical

De: Jennifer Love Hewitt

Narrado por: Jennifer Love Hewitt

When she lost her mother to cancer, everything changed for Jennifer Love Hewitt. In Inheriting Magic, she recounts her journey, sharing memories, recipes, and the magic-making ethos of a self-proclaimed “Holiday Junkie.”

A heartfelt, candid chronicle that charts a course from sorrow to celebration, this unique memoir includes:

• Jennifer’s favorite recipes, from her grandmother’s chicken and dumplings to her husband’s holiday cocktail

• An explosion of festive plans, including images, sure to inspire your decorating plans for Halloween, Christmas, Easter, birthdays, and a whole year’s worth of holidays

• Foolproof strategies for adding magic to your family’s everyday routine, such as moon water, baskets of joy, glowing dinners, and more

Inheriting Magic is about how grief, being a mom of three, having a deep love for party planning, and being passionate about the holidays turned what could have been an ordinary life into something enchanting. Through it, Jennifer inspires all listeners to add more love, light, and the making of core memories into their everyday lives.

“Jennifer Love Hewitt takes us on a journey of love, loss, and self-realization … One part self-help, one part memoir, and one part how-to, Jennifer manages to straddle three different genres, giving all moms a treasure trove of ideas with a healthy dose of heart.”—Jenny Mollen, actor and New York Times bestselling author of City of Likes and I Like You Just the Way I Am

This enhanced edition contains an audio-exclusive Q&A with the author and additional bonus content throughout the memoir.

Jennifer Love Hewitt is marvelously magical

She manages to make even the smallest details that most people would take for granted and makes it magical and that’s amazing to me. She may be a celebrity but she is also an everyday mom who works, cooks and cleans and makes everyday occurrences a little extra special. Yes she is definitely the “Holiday Junkie” but she also gives great mostly simple ideas to make things more exciting and special. The story is from the heart and her emotions while reading feels like you are having a workshop with her in the room while also talking to your best friend. The only downside is that there are recipes and written ideas that are not included in the Audible. I have followed her singing and acting career from when she was a kid on “Kids Incorporated” to her most recent show. Her smile and personality are infectious and I’m glad I gave this a chance. I would definitely recommend to any mom just trying to make it while still giving those magical moments to their kids.

Love

SO Genuine and heartfelt. What an amazing woman, mother, wife and friend you have turned out to be. I've always adored you!

incredibly valuable! Bringing the magic back !

she reminded me what it was like when I was a child and saw the world and magic differently. I saw magic everywhere then and now I only catch glimpses however am in awe when I witness it's beauty. Thank you for offering ways to bring that back!

not sure what I was expecting

I bought this audiobook after listening to a podcast when she spoke about her relationship with her mother and her grieving process. it wS a bit of an impulse buy to be honest. The book pretty much told the same story she did in the podcast with the addition of mommy how-tos to introduce "magic" into your children's lives by throwing themed parties and other family activities. Sorry to say, I was not impressed with the how-tos portion of it. I expected more story and philosophical discussion I guess, but how-tos are just not my thing. I feel like you could get similar ideas online or in a magazine-- and no need to buy the book at all.
