"I'm a Harry Potter fanatic. This was a wonderful book! Fell in love with the characters...I laughed and cried. I was hooked." -Amazon ReviewAll Goff wanted was for his essay on witchcraft to be good enough to win a scholarship to a private academy far away from Spraksville, the miserable, spooky little town he is stuck in. But, if he’d known that Spraksville’s history of witchcraft was more than just folklore, he never would have experimented with casting a spell in the cemetery at midnight as research to make the essay great. He ends up transformed into a wizard and becomes the mortal enemy of the most powerful dark wizard in centuries. Now it's up to Goff to stop him from performing an ancient ritual that will destroy the town and make this Halloween night the last night of freedom the world ever knows.Written for young readers of all ages, Misfit's Magic is a spooky, action-packed, feel-good book that children, adults, and entire families enjoy any time of year as a "...a gorgeous treat to fans of urban fantasy." - The Book Commentary.“...you won’t put this book down...” A. Reynolds, Readers' Favorite“Epic. Two thumbs way up...this is one of the best books I have read all year…I would recommend this book to both adults and children alike…” Award-winning author M. A. Hernandez Jr."…will delight fans of Harry Potter and Septimus Heap.” K. Zimmerman, Readers' Favorite

Misfit's Magic by Fred Gracely was a fun read-- For the most part I really enjoyed the book (there were times when it seemed to drag pacing wise just a bit) From the description "By age thirteen, the list of nasty foster homes Goff had lived in was longer than he was old. He'd given up on having frien......more

Goodreads review by Mark on July 24, 2022

What worked: The setting is a small town in the Northeast. The author presents the backstory through the eyes of Goff as he tries to complete an article about Spraksville and its history of witchcraft. The eerie atmosphere is created through the numerous gargoyles found around town and the old, creep......more
