Rosemary never quite fit into her own life. Her classmates feared her, she was always in trouble with her teachers, and even her mom didn’t care for her unusual gifts. Sure, she could see how others were going to die, and she was starting to think she was cursed, but that doesn’t mean she’s not curious, capable, and worthy, right?
When she eventually arrives at Fern’s School for Wayward Fae, Rosemary finally discovers the place where she belongs – well, kind of. It took a little time and an open mind. This magical school is filled with enchanting creatures with curious gifts just like hers, from a banshee roommate to a vampire classmate, everyone has a special gift and a taste for magic. Discovering she was half fae and finding her people was eye-opening for her, and it made life a whole lot more magical – and dangerous!
