Summary:
"Kitten Love's family is haunted by the memory of her teenaged aunt, Nerida, who died just days before Kitten's birth in 1970. Her mother, Queena, believes the family is cursed, and
she
's determined not to let disaster strike again.
She
won't let Kitten out of her sight -- especially to visit the beaches that surround the town.
She
's built a bomb shelter to protect against Soviet attack, and
she
's desperate to protect her husband, Stubby, from the fatal and mysterious Love Heart. Kitten thinks
she
knows how to defeat their curse:
magic
. But when protection spells and clues from tarot cards aren't enough to save Stubby, Kitten turns her back on the things that make her life magical, and Queena turns her back on reality.
She
preserves everything as it was the day Stubby died in 1987 -- from the gold shag rug in the bathroom to the Duran Duran posters in Kitten's room. Kitten, herself, is forbidden to change. Kitten tastes freedom when
she
falls in love and moves to British Columbia, but reinventing herself without the curse is harder than
she
expects. Tragedy and her own reliance on magical thinking eventually lead her back home to Queena, her brother Thom, and Aunt Bunny, who are equally stuck in their pasts. When tarot cards begin mysteriously showing up in her room, warning of a betrayal and encouraging an unlikely romance,
she
's certain someone is watching her. Could the heartbreak that almost destroyed Kitten's family be the very
thing
that helps them move on? A darkly humorous family saga woven around tarot cards and a mixtape of '80s songs,
Every
Little
Thing
She
Does
is
Magic
is a heady mix of music, ghosts, love, and nostalgia."--Provided by publisher.
