'Diary of a Wickedly Cool Witch' contains a wonderful concoction of magical mystery, a squeeze of fantasy, a splash of realism and a huge dash of crazy humor, with a little bit of romance stirred in, and a good helping of life lessons on the side for older middle grade children and teenagers. Life is tricky enough when you're entering your teenage years and having to deal with friendship issues, boy crushes, horrible bullies, bossy parents, too much homework and the odd zit or two, but for twelve year old Lily, it's completely chaotic and out of control. Because she's not just your average seventh grader. Lily is also a good witch who has been sent to Earth to rid the world of bullies, and save people from disaster and calamity. The problem is, she's more interested in joining the cheerleading team and falling in love, and that keeps getting in the way of doing her real job properly. In the first book of the series, Lily, the sassy, but adorable witch goes head to head with the school's meanest cheerleaders in a bid to stamp out bullying, and there seems to be plenty of bullies at her school, spreading their spitefulness around like a noxious vine. But Lily's on to it. She's a pro at what she does, and nothing will get in her way, nothing will get in her way. That is, until she starts to notice one of the bully's boyfriends just happens to be one very cute guy who seems to be showing more than a fleeting interest in her.

I would recommend it for anyone who can just let go and enjoy a fun story." "If you have teenage daughters or granddaughters, this is the book to grab them. Readers get to meet Lily who looks twelve, but is actually a 286 year old witch. Lily has a special purpose and ability, but a hard time trying to do what she is supposed to.
