So this is what you a waiting
for *drum roll* little summary about this book. I hoped that you interested with
one of them ;)
§ Bras and Broomsticks
What if all your wishes could come true? Blink your eyes, drink a
fizzing pink potion, and poof! Life
is perfect. That’s Rachel’s situation. Except she’s not the one who suddenly
has magical powers. Her younger sister is. And as Rachel would tell you,
spellbooks are wasted on
the young!
Yes, yes, of course
world peace and cures for horrible diseases are important. But so is dancing
without looking like she’s being electrocuted, winning back her best friend,
stopping her dad’s wedding, and finding a date for Spring Fling
Living in New York
City with her mother and her younger sister, Miri, fourteen-year-old Rachel
tries to persuade Miri, who has recently become a witch, to help her become
popular at school and to try to stop their divorced father's wedding.
Rachel’s not bewitched. Yet. . . .
¨ Frogs and French Kisses
Rachel has finally come to terms with the outrageously unfair
fact that her younger sister, Miri, has inherited magical powers from their
mom. But now the whole witchcraft thing is spiraling out of control. Mom is a
magicaholic, Miri’s on a Save the World kick, and the one teeny tiny love spell
that Rachel begged for has gone embarrassingly, horribly wrong.
Suddenly, the fate of everything is in Rachel’s hands.
Her family.
The world.
Senior prom.

ª Spells and Sleeping Bags
At
long last, Rachel's powers have arrived and she's a bona fide
get-your-broom-ready witch! And it's happened just in time. No Manhattan for
her this summer—she's spending her vacation at Camp Wood Lake.
But she's having some serious issues:
Mosquitoes in the Adirondacks are incredibly thirsty. her stepmom keeps sending embarrassing feminime hygiene care packages. she accidentally zapped away her clothes. And there's a backstabber in her cabin intent on making life miserable.
Good thing Rachel's a witch

Perfect hair, cute clothes, healthy tans—lige's a breeze when you're a witch! Even special witchcraft classes Rachel agrees to attend with Miri turn out to be fun. The sisters meet other teen witches just like them—who knew? Everyone's preparing for magical party called a Samsorta—a debutante ball for witches. and it wouldnt be a ball without warlocks. Cute ones. Like Adam, who wants to slow dance with Rachel, and ski with her in the Rockies —on a school night! Of course, Rachel is madly in love with her boyfriend, Raf. So why can't she bring herself to tell Adam—funny, charming Adam—that Raf exists?
—Rachel knows Raf likes her. maybe even, gulp, loves her. but
Raf doesnt know her secret. Unlike adam, Raf doesnt know who she really is. And
she can never tell him. Or can she?
