High School Magical by DeirdreSpark

Maija Wessels, a high school junior, is confident, clever, and insightful. She hangs out at the beach with her besties, loves S'mores, and has a major crush on Carter Miller. She's also a witch. At least, that's what the Certified Witch Caretakers tell her when they show up with a letter from Applemoor Academy for the Magically Talented. She's also in the first graduating class after Applemoor opened its doors to all magical beings: unicorns, elves, vampires, and more. However, not everything is fluffy bunnies, apple pie, and rainbows. There are boys too: the mysterious and brooding JJ who appears after she sees her name in the stars. Then Bobby Gold whose smile could melt any girls' heart. As she tries to balance her old life with her supposed newfound abilities (not to mention the homework and spellwork), she can't use her cellphone, her roommate won't talk to her, she gets locked in a classroom, and tension among the magical beings on campus mounts. And everyone keeps saying she looks exactly like Imogen Hawkes, the subject of the last great prophecy. Meanwhile, she's just trying to get through the day without turning anyone into a toad.

Vantahaven: The Five by RykerRivers

Power isn't given. It's taken. For centuries, Blackwell Academy has been more than just a school-it is a proving ground for the most elite magical bloodlines, where power is currency and weakness is a death sentence. At its center stands an unbreakable brotherhood: The Five of Vantahaven. Chosen heirs of the most formidable bloodlines, bound by an ancient Covenant that grants them extraordinary abilities-at a price. But when one of them is found dead under mysterious circumstances, the fragile balance of their world begins to unravel. Dark whispers of betrayal seep through the academy's shadowed corridors, and the remaining four must navigate a web of deception, hidden rituals, and a history written in blood. As they search for the truth, they uncover something far more terrifying than a murderer in their midst-the Covenant is cracking. The magic that has sustained their power for generations is no longer stable, and breaking it may unleash something far worse than death. Loyalties will be tested. Secrets will come to light. And in Blackwell Academy, the truth is far deadlier than the lies that protect it. Because the Five were never meant to remain five. They were always meant to fall.
