Fans of Tamora Pierce and Sabrina the Teenaged Witch will get caught up in this brilliant series about a supposedly normal teenager who discovers she's magical—and that's just the start of her problems. This box set includes all four books in the spellbinding Lexie Carrigan Chronicles, and is over 1,500 pages of magic, mayhem, and mystery! My name is Lexie Carrigan. I live with my aunt and two sisters in a small town in Florida. Up until my fifteenth birthday, I thought I was fairly normal, perhaps a little on the nerdy side. But then my sister Marie materializes a sandwich in front of me and the truth comes out. I'm magical. My family doesn't seem to think it's a big deal. How can they? My sister Nicole's magic is limited to potions, and my aunt's never been good at showing me anything. And forget asking Marie for help. So when I met this brilliant older guy who also had magic, I thought he might be my saving grace. He has old books and knowledge and seems to know the answer to every one of my questions. Except for one - who is he and why is he so interested in helping me? Here's what readers are saying about The Lexie Carrigan Chronicles: ★★★★★ "I've read a few of S.

“There isn’t a human alive who can resist the charm of Jessica Anya Blau’s novels! A coming-of-age tale for the new millennium, The Trouble with Lexie is one of the most deeply enjoyable—and deeply satisfying—novels I’ve read in ages.” —Joanna Rakoff, author of My Salinger Year From the beloved author of The Summer of Naked Swim Parties and The Wonder Bread Summer comes the jaw-dropping story of Lexie James, a counselor at an exclusive New England prep school, whose search for happiness lands her in unexpectedly wild trouble. Lexie James escaped: after being abandoned by her alcoholic father, and kicked out of the apartment to make room for her mother’s boyfriend, Lexie made it on her own. She earned a Masters degree, conquered terrifying panic attacks, got engaged to the nicest guy she’d ever met, and landed a counseling job at the prestigious Ruxton Academy, a prep school for the moneyed children of the elite. But as her wedding date nears, Lexie has doubts. Yes, she’s created the stable life she craved as a child, but is stability really what she wants? In her moment of indecision, Lexie strikes up a friendship with a Ruxton alumnus, the father of her favorite student. It’s a relationship that blows open Lexie’s carefully constructed life, and then dunks her into shocking situations with headline-worthy trouble. The perfect cocktail of naughtiness, heart, adventure and humor, The Trouble with Lexie is a wild and poignant story of the choices we make to outrun our childhoods—and the choices we have to make to outrun our entangled adult lives.
