Title: The Scapegracers
Author: Hannah Abigail Clarke
Page Count: 400
Rating: 2.5/5 (DNF at 75%)
Synopsis (Found on Goodreads):
An outcast teenage lesbian witch finds her coven hidden amongst the popular girls in
her school, and performs some seriously badass magic in the process.
I received an earc via Edelweiss+ this in no way changes my opinion of the book.
Thoughts:
The first 20% of the novel was fast paced and very witchy. Then everything slowed
way down and I was just bored. I felt like this was a cheaper version of The Craft
and Mean Girls. Outcast invited to hang out with the cool girl group only to learn that
her magic becomes more powerful.
I did keep reading but by 75% I was finding myself wanting to pick up anything else
but my kindle to finish. Normally I would have forced myself to push on but I couldn`t.
I was not invested in Sideways or any other character.
Just because this novel wasn't for me doesn't mean you won`t enjoy it. It has
representation that YA books need and if you haven't seen The Craft or even
AHS Coven then maybe you won't notice the similarities.
TTFN,
Ashley
