Goodreads Summary:
Three years ago, Sophie Mercer discovered that she was a witch. It's gotten her into a few scrapes. Her non-gifted mother has been as supportive as possible, consulting Sophie's estranged father--an elusive European warlock--only when necessary. But when Sophie attracts too much human attention for a prom-night spell gone horribly wrong, it's her dad who decides her punishment: exile to Hex Hall, an isolated reform school for wayward Prodigium, a.k.a. witches, faeries, and shapeshifters.By the end of her first day among fellow freak-teens, Sophie has quite a scorecard: three powerful enemies who look like supermodels, a futile crush on a gorgeous warlock, a creepy tagalong ghost, and a new roommate who happens to be the most hated person and only vampire student on campus. Worse, Sophie soon learns that a mysterious predator has been attacking students, and her only friend is the number-one suspect.As a series of blood-curdling mysteries starts to converge, Sophie prepares for the biggest threat of all: an ancient secret society determined to destroy all Prodigium, especially her.
My take:
I loved this book so much! The humor in it was just perfect and it didn't mess with the "serious" parts of the story. I am SO GLAD I finally got around to reading this one. I think I may have to purchase it for my own collection.
The school and magical world that Rachel created for this story is great. I think I'd like more Cal in the other books. :)
A great quote from the book, actually near the end..."There was a sensible part of me somewhere that clutched its pearls and hissed that I better not give up my V-card in a cellar..." Southern belle at heart!!!! HAHAHA!
Moving on to Demonglass NOW!
My rating:
I am definitely going to buy my own copy of this book so I can read it when I need some great humor!
This book was read just for fun! No challenges for this one.
