After Sophie casts a love spell that goes horribly wrong she is sent to a Reform School for troubled magical youth ( i.e. witches, fairies, vampires, and shape shifters). By the end of her first day of school at Hecate (aka Hex) Hall, she offends a clique of witches by refusing to join their coven, develops a crush on the most popular and unavailable boy in school, and is roommates with the school’s only Vampire who is a major social outcast. Even worst, someone begins attacking student witches and draining them of their blood making her only friend the main suspect.
This book felt a lot like Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, where they are in a Boarding School, attend Magical classes, and students are being randomly and mysteriously attacked by someone or a something. The main character, Sophie, is very Mary Sue-ish, as she finds out that her father (whom she has never met) is some famous Wizard, she is from a long line of very powerful witches, and she is able to start attracting the “hottest” guy in school. Still I wanted to continue reading the book because it was fun to read, there was action, suspense, mystery, and the cute teen romance. The book ends quickly with a few plots left open, leaving me dying to read the next book (which doesn’t come out until March!).
