Perfect for fans of The Girl Who Drank the Moon, this fantastical and heartfelt first book in a new trilogy from New York Times bestselling author Jodi Lynn Anderson follows a girl who must defeat thirteen evil witches.

Twelve-year-old Rosie Singer’s mom is missing whatever it is that makes mothers love their daughters. All her life, Rosie has known this…and turned to stories for comfort. Then, on the night Rosie decides to throw her stories away forever, an invisible ally helps her discover the Witch Hunter’s Guide to the Universe, a book that claims that all of the evil in the world stems from thirteen witches who are unseen…but also unstoppable. One of these witches—the Memory Thief—holds an insidious power to steal our most precious treasures: our memories. And it is this witch who has cursed Rosie’s mother.


In her quest to save her mom—and with her wild, loyal friend “Germ” by her side—Rosie will find the layers hidden under the reality she only thought she knew: where ghosts linger as shades of the past, where clouds witness the world, and a ladder dangles from the moon leading to something bigger and more. Here, words are weapons against the darkness, and witch hunters are those brave enough to wield their imaginations in the face of the unthinkable.

At the core of this stunning novel—the first of the Thirteen Witches trilogy from critically acclaimed author Jodi Lynn Anderson—is a passionate argument that stories have the power to create meaningful change…and a reason to hope even when the world feels crushing.

After breaking a chain letter, can superstitious Megan find a way to turn her luck around?

Meghan McGlinchey is the most superstitious girl in her family—and probably in the entire state of Delaware. When she receives a chain letter from a stranger in Ireland, Meghan immediately passes it on, taking only a tiny shortcut in the directions.

But after a disastrous day, made complete by losing the election for class president and embarrassing herself in front of the entire school, Meghan realizes that tiny shortcut was a big mistake. Thankfully, her family was already headed to Ireland on spring break, and Meghan makes it her mission to find the original sender and break her extremely unlucky streak.

With the help of an eccentric cast of characters—and one very cute Irish boy—can Meghan figure out a way to stop her bad luck? Or is she cursed forever?

little red reads review

Meghan McGlinchey  is set to clutch her eighth grade election when a chain letter shows up in the mail from Ireland and sets off a spree of bad luck. Luckily, her family is all set to go to Ireland and meet her father’s long lost sister, but in the mean time there’s a lot of mishaps coming her way!

What I loved about this book

It’s part of Cindy Callahan’s international middle grade series. We loved Lost in London and this one, set in Ireland is just as fun

The main character shares a first name with one of my daughters. She was all over it when this book came in the mail!

The setting- castles, people who look like leprechauns, sheep in the street and a bit of magic.

It explores looking at life as a glass half empty or a glass half full. There’s a discussion about superstition.

Lucky Me is an age appropriate, fun, easy read.

The covers are colorful and will make a great gift set for your tween.

It gives a brief but realistic snapshot of some of the Emerald Isle’s sites.

What I wish

I wanted to know more about Finn, the side characters and Meghan’s parents. The story line is very focused on one girl and one boy.

Was hoping for a few more laugh out loud moments.

Overall

A winner. We will definitely be buying all of Cindy’s books!

Content: sneaking out, one kiss, some snarkiness between school girls
