The Forgetting Spell

The Forgetting Spell by Lauren Myracle, 344 pages

“The Forgetting Spell is beloved and bestselling author Lauren Myracle's second book in the unforgettable Wishing Day series, perfect for fans of Kate DiCamillo and Ingrid Law. Most people in Willow Hill think Darya is the prickliest of the Blok sisters. What they don't realize is that on the inside, Darya is soft and gooey from feeling everything, all the time. When Darya turns thirteen, the goo gets stickier--and as Darya's Wishing Day approaches, all she wants is to forget the silly tradition ever existed.” I keep choosing books to read, not realizing that they are the second book in a series.  However, that really didn’t matter with this book at all.  I’m planning to go back and read the first book because this was so good, but I didn’t need to read it to follow this story at all.  I would definitely give it to grade school kids who like stories about magic and fantasy.
