A Most Magical Girl - by Karen Foxlee (2016)

By Piranha T.

Annabel Grey is a girl in England learning how to become a proper young lady. But when her mother does some traveling, Annabel is sent to live with two aunts, who own a magic shop. Soon enough, Annabel discovers that her family is not as ordinary as she has always assumed and that both her mother, her aunts, and herself have unusual magical powers. Before long, she learns that the evil Mr. Angel and his fiendish machine are raising an army of shadow creatures—and only she can stop them. Annabel is thrown into an urgent quest to find the Morever Wand, the only thing that can stop Mr. Angel from putting an end to all good magic—forever. With the help of a strange girl, an ancient map, a finicky broomstick, and her own magical powers, can she stop Mr. Angel in time?
​
A Most Magical Girl was a very good book. There was excellent character development—for example, at the beginning, Annabel didn’t believe in magic—and it was quite exciting. However, my one criticism is that it ended with a cliffhanger – paving the way, I hope, to a sequel. I would highly recommend A Most Magical Girl to readers ages 11 and up.

    Book Reviews By & For Kids

    Everyone knows that Rapunzel spent her early years locked up in a tower. We’d like to think she read plenty of books to while away the time, and that she’d appreciate our own favorites.

    Founded in 2014, our reviews focus on great books for middle grade (MG) readers. Beginning in 2018, we began adding selected Young Adult (YA) books as well, but only if we really love them and think Rapunzel Reads followers will too. Favorite picture books have their own page.

    Young Adult Reviews! 

    We're now featuring reviews for YA (ages 12+) books alongside our middle-grade reviews on our main page! (If you're not sure if a book is young adult, check the age range--if it's 12, 13, or 14+, it's YA.)

    ​Looking for more YA recommendations? Until 2022, we had a separate For Older Readers page, where we highlighted over two dozen awesome YA books. Check it out here!
