Almost Magic by Kathleen Bullock
Release Date: May 2015
Formats: Paperback/Ebook
Publisher: Spencer Hill Middle Grade
"Ever since she turned twelve, Apple Bramblewood’s life has been plagued by visits from weird creatures from the magical realms. It seems she is a rare Attractor, a Wizard whose sole talent is solving the clamorous demands of very odd beings, usually in the most unorthodox, haphazard, and klutzy ways. Apple doesn’t want to be an Attractor; her most passionate goal is to attend an ordinary school, with ordinary kids, as her perfect older sister, Cornelia, does. Her parents have no doubts about Cornelia’s magical prowess, but Apple seems destined to be home-schooled forever."
