How To Hang A Witch by Adriana Mather
Jan. 3rd, 2018 11:44 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
The trials of high school start to feel like a modern-day witch hunt for Samantha Mather, who has all the wrong connections to Salem’s past …
When a centuries-old curse is rekindled, Sam finds herself at the centre of it. Can she stop history repeating itself?
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Adriana Mather’s YA paranormal novel has a great premise but is spoilt by a tedious plot lacking consistent, internal logic; a tired, clichéd love triangle with two bland male leads; a main character who’s clumsy for no reason but also secretly special an often completely irrational; supporting characters who are little more than sketches and a ridiculous climax that had me rolling my eyes and ensued I won’t be reading the sequel.
HOW TO HANG A WITCH will be released in the United Kingdom on 4th January 2018. Thanks to Walker Books for the review copy of this book.
