Hawkins kept a lot under her sleeve, and I appreciated that.Fans of Rachel Hawkins' Hex Hall series will shriek with joy over this dark spin-off adventure full of humor, magic, and snark!įifteen-year-old Izzy Brannick was trained to fight monsters. Loved how light hearted it was, and it developed nicely. There were many things happening around Sophie, and she described Hex Hall so well, from the setting to the people in it, I felt involved. The pace and events in the books were equally great. She reminded me of how past books used to be, where readers could feel the essence of the heroine without being told what she is. Sophie was just hilarious, and her voice is easy to get in to.


To say that I LOVED this book is an understatement. When kids are randomly attacked though, all signs point to Sophie’s vampire friend, and she’s determined to prove her innocence. Before her first day is over, Sophie makes enemies after the three only dark witches in school, develops a crush on a warlock, and befriends the only vampire in school. After a disastrous spell gone wrong, Sophie is sentenced to Hecate Hall, a juvenile school for supernatural beings. Summary: Sophie Mercer is a witch, and not exactly a master of her craft.
