I try to remember key points when reading a review book but I was so engrossed with this one I forgot to. High school is bad enough but Wanda doesn't feel she "matches" her family, her important parents and her beautiful sisters. She feels ugly, clumsy and an embarrassment to her parents with boarding school her only happiness. She has friends there and while she may be having trouble with Geometry she never expected school to kill her.
I love these characters. They be out of the ordinary but they go through real-life problems, boyfriends, parents, bullies, snobby classmates, favorite teachers, scary teachers, they just have an added twist of a best friend being a vampire or turning into a bear. And, of course, someone trying to kill Wanda.
While looking for info at amazon I noticed it said "Supernatural High Series". I am looking forward to reading more by Ms. Sproatt.
The Misfit of Supernatural High
by Shawn C. Sproatt
March 2011
ebook
Young Adult
available for the Kindle at amazon and
the Nook at Barnes & Noble
Product Description:
15-year-old Wanda Windsor is not the most popular student at Hecate High. In fact, amongst her fellow witches, the fairies, the shifters, the vampires, and the werewolves, she's one of the least popular students. However, she never thought anyone hated her enough to try attack her. During her sophomore year someone uses mind control on other students to force them to hurt Wanda, and she manages to just barely escape each attack. Wanda isn't sure who would want to hurt her, but she's fairly certain it has to do with the introverted new student who has visions of the future.
When she isn't dodging death, Wanda spends her time trying to pass Geometry, avoiding (unsuccessfully) the subject of boys, and getting into mischief with her friends.
Thanks to LibraryThing's Member Giveaways, I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
