About the Author
Grady Hendrix is a New York Times bestselling novelist and screenwriter who owns too many paperbacks and not enough shelves. He's the author of How to Sell a Haunted House, The Final Girl Support Group, The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, and many more, including Paperbacks from Hell, a history of the horror paperback boom of the seventies and eighties that won the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in Nonfiction. (All the paperbacks are for "research" and he needs them.) His books have sold over two million copies and have been translated into more than twenty languages. He lives in New York City and will die there, too, probably crushed to death beneath piles of those paperbacks.
Reviews
"There's spells, there's witches, and then there's the magic Grady Hendrix conjures up in this amazing novel." - Stephen Graham Jones, New York Times bestselling author of I Was a Teenage Slasher

"Witchcraft for Wayward Girls is terrifying, darkly funny, moving, immersive, and deeply relevant--a page-turner that will keep you up until one in the morning. I devoured every page of it. Grady Hendrix is at the top of his game." - Simone St. James, New York Times bestselling author of Murder Road

"Another stellar novel from Hendrix, a perfectly constructed story that has a strong emotional core, compelling plot, unforgettable characters, and 360 degrees of terror." - Booklist (starred review)

"This book is so twisted and smart, it could hide behind a spiral staircase. It's got such a warm beating heart, and it broke mine several times. As soon as I finished I wanted to start all over again." - Catriona Ward, author of The Last House on Needless Street and Nowhere Burning

"Grady Hendrix again brings to life a fully realized ensemble of characters who you'll cry with and root for while deftly molding the historical novel, the supernatural, and gritty, all-too real life horrors into a morally complex and genuinely haunting and moving tale. I couldn't put it down once I started." - Paul Tremblay, author of Horror Movie and The Cabin at the End of the World

"Grady Hendrix's Witchcraft for Wayward Girls will delight fans new and old with his convincing rendering of characters juggling pregnancy and magic, childhood and adulthood, helplessness and power - and of course good and evil. Another nail-biter not to be missed!" - Tananarive Due, author of The Reformatory

"Grady Hendrix does it again, only better: A magical look into the lives of teenage girls, of making the jump from powerlessness to power, of facing your fears and finding your coven. Enchanting and entertaining, but ultimately the novel's greatest strength is its fearless truth-telling. Press this book into the hands of the young women you know." - Alma Katsu, author of The Fervor

"Captivating from the start, Witchcraft for Wayward Girls takes readers on an incredible journey exploring female victimization and empowerment...that may or may not entail tapping into the dark magic within. A phenomenal read for witches everywhere!" - Carissa Orlando, author of The September House
