LitPick Review
After being moved from her perfect, mortal life in CA, Pru
finds herself in Salem, surrounded by witches. Her mother
sends her to a Agatha's, a private school just for witches,
so that Pru can learn magic. Unfortunately, things just
don't work out that easily for her. She gets landed in
remdial magic, which embarasses her as her younger brother
is already an expert in all things magical. She makes the
cheerleading team, but her teammates don't seem to like her
very much. And she just doesn't seem to have any luck with
guys, mortal or magical. Pru needs to get her priorities
straight, and with a little motivation, her life takes a
turn for the better.
Opinion:
While this book was entertaining, it
is more appealing to younger readers than older ones. The
choice of words chosen didn't really appeal to me, such as
the word "kewl". The main character, Pru, was an
interesting character to follow. I didn't read the
prequel, but I felt like I understood enough of what was
going on in the story. Overall, the story itself was fun
to read and I would probably pick up another book by the
Kelly McClymer if I happened to come across
one.
