The second book in a fun middle-grade contemporary fantasy series,
about a social-media-loving tween-and witch!After a summer of being
the worst witch at a fancy witch school, Hasani can't wait to get
back to the peace and normalcy of Riverbend Middle where she knows
all the rules and is destined to be captain of the Mathletes. There
are a few little hiccups to work out-like how she's going to tell
her best friend that she's a witch-but even though the other two
members of Hasani's coven have joined her friend group and her
school, there's no reason to think that eighth grade won't be
smooth sailing . . . That is until her former friend (and fellow
witch) LaToya shows up.LaToya starts trying to take her friends and
make Hasani seem like the bad guy. To make matters worse, strange
things begin happening around the school-including a termite
infestation-and Hasani is so sure that LaToya is to blame. However,
when Miss Lafleur comes to visit to help deal with the termites and
investigate the magic, she helps Hasani to channel her powers more
and realize just how strong her magic has become. But Miss Lafleur
also isn't convinced that LaToya could have caused all this chaos
on her own-so Hasani sets out to prove it, and heads to a magical
market, 3Thirteen, to find the ingredients she needs to do so. But
in all her focus on proving she's right and learning more about her
magic, is Hasani losing sight of the people and things that are
most important to her?
A fun middle-grade contemporary fantasy with an all-BIPOC cast,
about a social-media loving tween who gets sent to an ultra-private
witch camp—now in paperback!Hasani’s post-seventh-grade summer
to-do list is pretty simple: get a bigger following for her makeup
YouTube channel and figure out how to get her parents back
together. What she does NOT expect is that an emotional outburst
will spark a latent magical ability in her. Or that the magic will
be strong enough to attract the attention of witches. Or that
before she can say #BlackGirlMagic, she’ll be shipped off on a
scholarship to a fancy finishing school for talented young
ladies.Les Belles Demoiselles is a literal charm school. Here,
generations of young ladies from old-money witch families have
learned to harness their magic, and alumnae grow to become some of
the most powerful women across industries, including politicians,
philanthropists, CEOs, entrepreneurs—and yes, even social media
influencers. Needless to say, admission to the school is highly
coveted, very exclusive . . . and Hasani sticks out like a weed in
a rose bouquet.While the other girls have always known they were
destined to be witches, Hasani is a Wildseed—a stray witch from a
family of non-witches, with no background knowledge, no way to
control her magic, and a lot to catch up on. “Wildseed” may be
an insult that the other girls throw at her, but Wildseeds are more
powerful than they know. And Hasani will learn that there are ways
to use magic and thrive that can never be taught in a classroom.
