Sua madre, priva di poteri, l'ha sempre sostenuta al meglio, consultando il padre di Sophie, un elusivo stregone europeo, solo quando strettamente necessario. Ma quando Sophie attira troppa attenzione...

It's been years since I read Hex Hall for the first time and for some reason I got a strong feeling that I need to re-read this one. After six years. So, here I'm and this time in English.The main character is 16 which is a little younger than books I usually read right now. But honestly? I did not care at all! Sophie is so damn hilarious. I love that girl! But I need to take one star down for the instacrush/instalove.I thankfully did not remember much about the book, except for the fact that I'...

Welcome to Monster College! I mean Hecate Academy I’m sorry but how is this book not more wellknow haha (ಥ ̯ ಥ). It has all the elements!We got juvenile delinquent SUPERNATURALS, heroine coming into her powers, secret society trying to kill all supes, and a murdering spree at the monster college! So allow me to set the scene: Sophie Mercer, witch delinquent extraordinaire I love Sophie’s attitude and snarkiness. There’s something about this character that just makes you grip the pages and kee...

"Archer is smart and funny in addition to being hot. Elodie [his girlfriend] is stupid and dull."
The second, the second, I read that line, I logged into Goodreads to check which year it was published. 2010. Also known as YA's embarrassing puberty years. I tend to stay away from books published during that time since they're filled with unhealthy romantic relationships and girl-on-girl hate. YA now is like college you, all grown-up and cringing at the occasional photo of your tween self that ...

As to date, this has been one of the most enjoyable fantasy books I’ve read that deals with otherworldly creatures like witches, vampires, faes, werewolves, shape-shifters and demons (collectively called as Prodigium) through the author’s creative effort of putting them all together in one monster high called Hecate Hall or simply Hex Hall. It’s a fast, fun read told by Sophie, a supposedly powerful witch who at 16 barely knows anything about her real powers. Thus, she gets enrolled at Hex Hall ...

OK, I originally gave this 3.5 stars.. but I have decided just to give it 4 stars. “I’m experiencing some teenage angst, Mrs Casnoff,” I answered. “I need to, like, write it in my journal or something.”Initial Final Page Thoughts.Wow, I read that book in about five hours…. I probably should get some food. Laughter is the only sustenance I need.High Points.Groundskeepers.Sorry, what was the question? Sophie. Jenna. Boarding school. MAGICAL BOARDING SCHOOL FOR DELINQUENT PARANORMALS. Ghosts. Flirt...

I was so pleasantly surprised by this book, almost as surprised as I am by the fact that I actually decided to read it. I'd all but given up on young adult novels that feature any of the following: vampires, werewolves, witches, shifters, fairies, angels, demons... you get the idea. Young adult fantasy and urban fantasy seems to have been constantly churning out more of the same, but Hex Hall really ticked all the right boxes for me.Granted, a boarding school for witches and whatnot isn't exactl...

Fun! This book really grew on me. It took several tries to get past the first couple of chapters, but once Sophie finally gets settled in at Hex Hall things start moving along. The witchy battles are pretty cool, there's good build-up of the mystique behind the school and behind Sophie's past and powers, and the author does a nice job with creating a variety of different characters with distinctive voices. I especially liked BFF Jenna and the super cute and witty Archer, and Sophie herself turns...

Ho sempre voluto essere una strega. Molto prima che qualcuno pronunciasse le parole Harry & Potter. Vedete, c'era questo film fantastico chiamato Teen Witch. L'avete visto? Beh, la ragazza scopre di essere una strega, trasforma il suo fratellino in un cane, incontra un cantante famoso E si accaparra il ragazzo più popolare della scuola. Tutto questo perché aveva poteri magici. Volevo tantissimo essere una strega.
Forse è per questo che ho amato così tanto questo libro, o forse è perché Hex Hall...
