Unable to control her powers, twelve-year-old Lavinia finds herself at a last-resort magical school where she teams up with her misfit classmates to save the school from danger. - Penguin Putnam
A middle grade magic school fantasy perfect for fans of The School for Good and Evil and Witchlings, in which a girl with unparalleled power must work with her misfit classmates to save her new school.
Lavinia âVinâ Lucas is out of control and out of options. Stranded by parents who would rather use their average magical abilities to study dung beetles than raise her, Vin's been on her own for years. But sheâs never been able to corral her own powerful, unpredictable magic. After years of detention, suspension, and expulsion from magic schools far and wide, sheâs now being sent to the Last Hope School for Magical Delinquents. If she gets expelled, itâs the end of the line.Â
Now, Vin is determined to behave. Except no one at Last Hope seems to want her to. Her new teachersâparticularly the schoolâs kind headmistressâpush her to explore her magic, and her mischievous classmates delight in every accident. And all the while, a mysterious fire sprite, a suspicious instructor, and her overwhelming abilities might just sabotage Vin. But for the first time, she is not alone.
So when a former student begins attacking the school, Vin must question just how much she knows about the headmistress and her new home. Is this place worth saving? And are her budding abilitiesâand every trick, trap, and deception in her friendsâ delinquent arsenalâenough to protect Last Hope?
