At New Avalon, everyone has a personal fairy - some less desirable than others: Charlie's fairy ensures that she always has a car park, which seems to pale in comparison to Fiorenze's all-the-boys-like-you fairy.

"This vividly imagined story will charm readers." - Publishers Weekly.
"Charlie is totally likable, smart, and sarcastic, a perfectly self-involved, insecure teen.

"Justine Larbalestier has a super-cool writing fairy, and I am vastly jealous! Thoroughly entertaining, totally enchanting, wickedly funny, and 110% doos, How To Ditch Your Fairy had me grinning from page one (when I wasn't laughing out loud). And as soon as I can figure out how to do it I'm going to ask to swap fairies with Justine." - Libba Bray, New York Times bestselling author of A Great and Terrible Beauty
