The 11:11 Wish by Kim Tomsic
4.0

As someone who makes a wish whenever I notice it is 11:11, this was a fun book to read! Megan is super stressed out about starting at a brand new middle school across the country after the school year has already started. Without knowing it, she becomes stuck in the middle of the battle for Spirit Week Captain, between the two most popular girls in the seventh grade. When she sees a clock in her history class that looks exactly like the one that was in her grandmother's kitchen, she wishes on it just like her grandmother did. Her wishes start to come true, but not without unintended consequences. She needs to find a way out of the hole she is digging, but every wish comes with a price. Can Megan find a way to make friends and fit in at her new school without magic? A fun take on being the new girl. Recommended for grades 4 and up.
