Reviews for Hex Hall

  • Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins4

    Amanda Also reviewed on my blog, the Vintage Bookworm. (http://www.vintagebookworm.blogspot.com)

    To be honest, the first time trying to read this a couple of months ago didn't work out. I couldn't get into it. This time I could and boy did I like this book! It was a great start to a series and I really wish I would have swiped Demonglass, Hex Hall's sequel, when I had the chance because now I'm regretting that big time, wanting to know more about Sophie and what happens to her school.

    And also, hello, what happened about Archer! I mean, how can someone NOT be curious about THAT? I'm not going to say more about it than that because I don't want to spoil it for anyone.

    The writing was intriguing, I finished this book pretty fast after getting into it, and the characters were fun to read about. Even if Elodie and her gang made me incredibly mad basically every time they came into the picture, though Elodie did have her moments.

    I love witches. I was a major fangirl of Charmed growing up and I still watch my seasons on DVD once in a while, I've always been fascinated with them and most other things paranormal. I guess that is one of the reasons why I wanted to get through this book so bad. Though I really don't understand why I couldn't get into it the first time, I guess because I wanted to read something else? I dunno.

    But overall, I know I didn't say much about this book, other than I liked it. But I just couldn't figure out what to say about it. I really, really liked it and all the magic and awesomeness. You should definitely read it if you are a fan of witches in a school where there are also Fae, vampires and shape shifters. It made an awesome, though sometimes terrifying, pairing.

    I really like the cover, I didn't understand it much at first, but if you read this book you'll understand about the reflection in the water. =) by Amanda

    SIN BINS FOR WITCHES!!!5

    DEENA M BRYANT IMGAINE IF HARRY POTTER ENDED UP IN AN WITCHES REFORM SCHOOL INSTEAD OF HOGWARTS? HEX HALL WOULD BE THE PLACE BUT...WITCHES ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES THERE. WEREWOLVES AND FAIRIES-PLUS ONE LONE VAMPIRE WHO IT SEEMS IS GETTING THE BLAME FOR THE DEATHS AND SUCH GOING ON.
    THIS BOOK IS ALOT SHARPER AND WITTIER THAN HARRY POTTER. IN FACT I LIKE THIS SERIES BETTER THAN TWILIGHT AND I LOVE THAT TOO!
    GIVE THIS SERIES A CHANCE AS I HAVE JUST READ THE SEQUEL AND THE ACTION IS EXPLOSIVE AS IT GOES ON.
    ALSO...WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ARCHER CROSS? HE IS A PUZZLE IN ITS SELF! by DEENA M BRYANT

    TeensReadToo Sophie found out she's a witch. Three years without guidance and one extremely bad love potion later, she lands herself a one-way pass to Hex Hall.

    Hex Hall is a boarding school for magical creatures and beings in need of a little more training and lots of rules. Other inmates include werewolves, shapeshifters, faeries, and one vampire who happens to be Sophie's new roommate and the one girl everyone loves to hate.

    Jenna loves pink and seems sweet, but there's a dangerous rumor floating around about her and the death of a girl last year.

    Sophie's not sure who to trust, but despite rumors, she becomes fast friends with Jenna while crushing over the hottest boy in school - and gaining his girlfriend as an enemy.

    When another girl is attacked, everyone wants the truth. Did a coven of witches raise a demon? Could a ghost from Sophie's past be more powerful than she suspects? Are the vampires really responsible for these attacks? Either way, the truth must come out...

    Rachel Hawkins writes a perfect debut novel filled with paranormal creatures, a dark mystery, a deep, strange society, and one hot guy. This start of a new series left me breathless with anticipation for the next installment.

  • Buffy meets Hogwarts5

    Norliza Coverwise, regardless how good this cover is, personally, it could only get me to buy it off the shelves, but to attract me to actually read it... that was another matter. Regardlss being just about 2-3 weeks of dormant in my scary Mount TBR, I really don't get that "read me" attraction much. Forgive me Rachel Hawkins for this confession. I do you so much wrong for that! *kisses toes* The only reason why I actually pick this up would be, it is everywhere. *blink* about every one of ten of my fellow bookbloggers for the past weeks has been featuring it in Teaser Tuesdays or doing reviews on it, so I ended up getting peer pressure. *purse lips*

    Sophia 'Sophie' Mercer is witch, well...part witch, and she goof up on a love spell she did because she was feeling sorry for the girl at school. Yeah, love spells.. that always put young witches in trouble. Remember Sabrina, the teenage witch? Well, yeah this book is like that, come of age, come of power. More upbeat kinda Harry Potter, female version. Sophie ended up getting send off to Hecate ("juvie for monsters" a direct quote from Sophie herself!), which has witches, shapeshifters, werefolks, fae, ghosts and a couple of vampires. Sounds familiar much? No worries. No Sorting Hat in this one. Just 3 dark beautiful supermodels witches, namely Elodie, Chaston and Anna, who approached Sophie and wants her in their coven since she happened to be a dark witch. These three girls are typical snobby, snotty extremely female version Draco. Yes, I am comparing! . by Norliza
