The Wish written by the author Gail Carson Levine is one of my favorite novels. It is published by Harper Collins Publishers. Ever since her two best friends moved away eighth grader Wilma Sturtz has felt invisible at her middle school, Claverford. So when an extraordinary old lady offers her a wish, Wilma asks to be the most popular kid at school. Suddenly she has more friends than she can keep track of, forty dates to the Grad Night Dance and a secret admirer writing her love poetry. But then Wilma discovers there is a loophole in her wish and realizes that her popularity might not last forever. This is a very interesting novel which creates suspense in readers every minute. I like it because this enchanted book which perfectly suits teenagers takes me into a great world of fantasy.
