All You Never Wanted by StephanieProchaska

Two months ago, Megan found a genie. Now, the bottle's gone and her wishes don't work. Her popularity's slipping, she's suddenly failing all of her classes, and she's getting ready to get kicked off the track team. She hasn't used all of her wishes yet, so what could be going on? When Jake finally shows back up at school, he's not talking to her; he's not even acknowledging she exists. But things had been going fine before, weren't they? She's not sure what's going on, but she knows she's going to have to fix this. If she can't, she might be running the risk of repeating junior year. More importantly, she might lose Jake altogether. And there's only one way to do it; she's going to have to figure out who took that bottle and steal it back. She just has to do it before whoever it was makes their wishes and gets rid of that bottle for good. But was it a stranger? Or worse, one of her own friends?

Nobody Likes Megan McGowen by StephanieProchaska

Having a genie is always complicated. Bringing him to school makes everything worse. Nothing ever seems to go Megan's way; she doesn't have that many friends, she's late for everything, and she's barely passing her classes. It seems like she's doing everything she can just to stay in the middle of the pack. So after scraping together all the couch-cushion money she could find, she decides to run away. Sitting at the bus stop late one night, Megan comes across an old bottle someone threw away. With nothing else to do, she decides to take a closer look. When she opens it, a kid her own age appears, ready to grant her whatever she wants. So, she wishes to be popular - what could go wrong? As Megan's life takes a drastic turn for the better, she gets a little cocky. After a failed bet with the genie, she agrees to let him come to school. Before she knows it, he's worming his way into every part of her life: he's in all her classes, friends with her brother, and getting invites to hang out with her friends. But once she starts spending time with him, Megan finds she has a new problem. Despite her best efforts, she's starting to see him as something more than just her personal wish-granter; he's almost a friend. But can she trust him?

So, what did she do now? She had a Jinn that she couldn't get rid of. It looked like she was doomed to be stuck with him. (Cover by Platypus1987)

Whispered Legends by crystal_pro_2024

"In the depths of legend, where myth intertwines with history, the creatures of ancient tales have lived and evolved through the ages, each bearing a morality uniquely their own, shaped by the passage of time. Yet, beneath the shifting sands of centuries, the earliest accounts of these beings persist, and for good reason. Among these timeless legends, none stand as enigmatic and potent as the fairies. Their tales, once whispered in fear and awe, have taken on countless forms, their nature a puzzle both beautiful and dangerous. Now, in a world where such truths are relegated to myth, a young and insightful girl embarks on a journey that will unravel not only the existence of these beings but the hidden realities that lie beneath. With knowledge in her grasp and courage in her heart, she must uncover the fairies' true essence, and discover a way to face the ancient forces that have remained unseen for far too long. For the stories may have changed, but the creatures themselves remain, waiting. Written by RubyShards.
