How to Get Magically Popular
A fresh, relatable story with a sprinkling of magic, about a girl who just wants to fit in but her magic powers make her stand out, from award-winning journalist and author Radhika Sanghani. Perfect for fans of Lottie Brooks and Dork Diaries.
Sabina Patel just wants to fit in. But in her new school, in a new town where she doesn't know anyone, Sabina feels more out of place than ever. Then she accidentally unlocks magic powers and starts to see the future, and she quickly stands out as one of the most popular girls at school.
But when Sabina starts seeing futures she'd rather not know about, she's not sure if she's unlocked a gift or a curse... A book about learning to be happy in the present, rather than letting the future take over your life.
