Sabrina the Teenage Witch meets Sex Education - Jessie Jones has just discovered she's a witch. Too bad there isn't a hex to make slimy Callum Henderson and his friends disappear ... yet. A feisty, funny YA series about discovering your place and your power.
New girl, new school, new life on stupid island - thanks Mum. All Jessie Jones wants is to keep her head down, avoid school douchebag Callum Henderson, and coast - middle-of-the-road-like. But when strange powers start to manifest during crippling period pains, flying under the radar seems highly unlikely.
Can Jessie embrace her new-found witchiness, control her erratic powers and work out a way to bring down Callum and his cult of toxic masculinity?
The funny, angsty, punchy YA debut is perfect for fans of Holly Bourne.

Powerful & empowering, fun & FURIOUS. This is a riveting & timely tale of sexism & sexual harassment in secondary schools, with added witchery. I loved the female friendships, & the island setting which runs through the story like a cool breeze
