Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Jim Madsen. "Cursed" child Morrigan discovers she's a candidate for the Wundrous Society, but if she fails any of the upcoming trials, including displaying a "knack" she's convinced she doesn't have, she'll be sent home to almost certain death. Full of fantastical invention, Townsend's debut novel reveals original conceits with each page turn. Ever-heightening stakes give the trials tension and keep readers guessing well into the denouement.
