Samantha Byrd is really tall but also bad at basketball and gets made fun of a lot. Then, she meets a mysterious woman in the forest who grants Samantha three wishes. What could go wrong, am I right?
Honestly I didn't particularly care for this book. The "genie granting three wishes and it doesn't go as planned" trope doesn't do it for me. But I do love Clarissa "the Crystal Woman". I aspire to be not just a crystal woman but the Crystal Woman.
I mean it obviously had its moments, I definitely want to know more about the friend how always gets grilled cheese packed in his lunch even though he hates it and bonus points for being a basketball story. I also liked the part when Judith accused Sam of being a witch, it appealed to me.
And then the main character got turned into a bird in the end which was pretty funny. The TV episode on the other hand has an entirely different ending for some reason but I can't say that I have a preference between the two options really.
I think that's all I have to say about this one. It didn't do it for me.
I mean I still liked it more than The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb but definitely pretty low on the list.
