16 Spells

About the Book

Unknowing of her powerful gift, Jen, who just turned sixteen, is brought in a type of world she hasn’t known existed for centuries. She learns that due to her age, she only has sixteen spells that she can use. And due to the type of magic that runs in her family, her magic holds up every other sixteen-year-old magic together. When Jen finds her grandmother’s old spell locket, she mixes two spells together and unlocks some of her new powers. Now her magic is unbalanced and out of control, throwing others’ magic out of control. Now she has to figure out how to get things back to the way they were before she opens a magic portal to the land of forbidden.

About the Author

Born in Cap Haitien, Haiti, in 2002 Priska L Debreus, grew up in a small neighborhood in the Charrier Mountains. In 2012, at the age of 10 she moved to the U.S and settled in Panama City, Florida. She attended Hiland Park Elementary, and Jinks middle school. As a young child, she found it hard to find something she really enjoyed doing in her spare time. Reading was never her thing, but she managed. In 2013, at the age of 11, Debreus took up writing, and wrote the first chapter of her book ‘My brother’s My Mate’, after publishing it electronically on an app, she found success was hard and ended up trashing the idea. Months later, she re-opened the idea once more, this time succeeding massively with 50 thousand reads. The success was short lived, once criticism about the content of the book lacking interest arose. Instead of throwing the idea away like the beginning, she turned it into something different, better, and with a plethora of interesting content. The book ‘16 Spells’, is one of many attempts, and a massive success on the app which got her started. Reaching 90.2 thousand reads in a short period of time. Eventually in 2016 at the age of 14 she moved to Miami and attended North Miami Middle School, and North Miami Senior High, where she continued to write and grow her success. In 2017, at the age of 15, Debreus took a bigger step at an even bigger success, by wanting to self publish her book ‘16 Spells.’
