Description
Family wields the greatest magic.
A missing father. A mother bewitched. Wilhelmina must use her unpredictable magic to catch whoever—or whatever—is stalking her parents. Will her powers be enough to restore her family?
When Wilhelmina accidentally sets her remedial magic class on fire, she is sent to live in the ordinary world with a mother she barely knows. Her adjustment gets off to a very rocky start. She has sudden, unexplainable bursts of magic—mostly while navigating the middle-school minefield—and her mother’s behaving like she’s under some spell. Despite her handicapped magic, Wilhelmina vows to get to the bottom of it all—even if she could vanish without a trace just like her father.
"Wilhelmina Quigley: Magic School Dropout" is a fish-out-of-water story with touches of mystery, fantasy, and humor. A witty tale of enchantment.
Buy this book now to laugh along with Wilhelmina as she learns about the ordinary world.

Wilhelmina was a fun and hilarious character, but she also had a kind heart. She believed she was a loser when she was kicked out of school. Living with the humans not only opens her eyes to the truth but also to new things. This book was chock full of excitement, such as her first crush, her first major battle, and the revealing of dark secrets.

"A missing father. A mother bewitched. Wilhelmina must use her unpredictable magic to catch whoever—or whatever—is stalking her parents. Will her powers be enough to restore her family?" Wilhelmina is a witch who really doesn't want to be one. Will her wishes come to fruition?
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher and NetGalley. This in no way affects my opinion of this book which I read and reviewed voluntarily.

4.5/5 ⭐️ I absolutely loved this short little book! It gave me the feelings of reading Harry Potter book 1, the young adult, young magic, innocence kind of feel. I love a main character that is quirky and a little awkward! I absolutely loved how the story progressed and even got pretty intense towards the end with the plot twists and betrayal! There was a lot of great story packed into a short little book! I am looking forward to more from Wilhelmina Quigley ❤️

This book was so much fun! It had a quirky, funny, and somewhat awkward main character! It had baking, magic, humor, and a cat all in one which made it the best light hearted easy ready! This definitely gave me cozy vibes and I was here for it!

The cover made me smile. It truly shows how Wilhelmina feels when she tries magic. This story was humorous. She tries to do right and does just not fit in. Most teens feel this way but to her it is traumatic. After years in the witch world, she finds herself plopped into the normal world where her mom she didn't know lives. There is finds out about her family, her friends and her magic. Cleaver book!
