Hex Education by Emily Gould and Zareen Jaffery

Sophie only wants to be normal but it is nearly impossible because her parents are famous horror moviemakers that are obsessed with the occult. They move her to the modern day Halloween town of Mythic. Sophie makes friends with a group of girls and the local geek, Paw Pudnowski. Sophie notices there is something evil crippling the town about Mythic. Sophie will need her friends more than ever to save the magical town she has grown to love.

This book wasn't a page-turner, but it was very good. My favorite part was the unexpected twist at the end. It leads you up to one thing and at last minute changes it. The authors gave this book a unique style that is unlike any other book I have ever read. My favorite character is Sophie. I like her just because of her actions and sayings. This is definitely a book to put on your summer reading list.

Content:It has some content that deals with love and adult feelings.
