Diary of a Fairy Godmother by Esme Raji Codell.
The story of Hunky Dory, a witch in training who ultimately decides to become a fairy godmother and use her powers for good instead of evil. Hunky battles peer pressure and rejection by her mother (a witch), but stands by her conviction to become a good witch and grant wishes instead of casting evil spells.
A bit preachy and a slow start, but ultimately an ok read, even for an adult. My daughter and I read this for the mother-daughter book club at the local public library. I had high hopes for this book having read something else by this author, so I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't as good as it should have/could have been. 3 stars.
