The final book in the lively, fun series for tween girls--just right for Disney Channel fans! With her powers under control and things with Jonathan on track, Sophie can now focus on learning the whole truth about her dad (not to mention trying to figure out how she can save him and bring him back to their family). Fortunately, she's got Malik, her djinn-guide, to help her as she navigates carpet-flying, learns how to make herself invisible, and braces herself for what promises to be a very exciting adventure. But if it brings her dad back, it will all be worth it!
Amanda Ashby was born in Australia but now lives in New Zealand where she writes romance, young adult and middle grade books. She also works in a library, owns far too many vintage tablecloths and likes to delight her family by constantly rearranging the furniture.
She has a degree in English and Journalism from the University of Queensland and is married with two children. Her debut book was nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewers Choice award, and her first young adult book was listed by the New York Public Libraryʼs Stuff for the Teen Age. Because she’s mysterious she also writes middle grade books under the name, Catherine Holt and hopes that all this writing won’t interfere with her Netflix schedule.
She also runs writing workshops and loves to speak to people about Buffy (er, she means writing). See her Website for more information.
This is the third and I believe final book in the Sophie's Mixed-Up Magic series. I received the first two from the author and have been pleasantly surprised by the series. In the earlier books, 11 year old Sophie was tricked into becoming a djinn. She's had to learn magic, keep her mom from moving, balance a new romance, and keep her boyfriend's mean-girl sister in line. In this book, Sophie is trying to free her dad, who is also a djinn, from captivity. But her friend Kara is beginning to grow weary of Sophie's all-about-me attitude. And her mom is thinking about dating. How will Sophie keep her friendships and get her dad back?
