Hex,
A Witch and Angel Tale by Ramona Wray
Like most girls at Rosemound High School,
seventeen-year-old Lily Crane is acutely aware of Ryder Kingscott. Hands down
the cutest guy in school, Ryder is cool, mysterious, and utterly
untouchable…especially for Lily. For when she touches someone, Lily instantly
learns all about their lives. And while such a skill might seem nifty, in truth
it is wrecking Lily’s life. So she is shocked when Ryder asks her out — and
even more shocked to discover he has a rival. Lucian Bell is the gorgeous new
kid who can’t take his eyes off of Lily. Being pursued by two hotties should
make a girl happy, but Lily is skeptical. The boys act as if they’ve met
before, hating each other with a passion that could only be rooted in a dark,
dangerous past. A past full of terrible secrets. The
kind of secrets that could get a girl killed.
kind of secrets that could get a girl killed.
Review:
The concept of the story was intriguing and kept
me on my toes, but I got a bit frustrated at times, when I first dived into
this book. I found that the author put too many words around what she was actually
trying to say and get across to the reader. Sometimes I found myself digging to
find out what she was getting at...but then I came to a certain page and things
started looking up!
After hitting page 29, it turned from being an
O.K read to me not wanting to put it down. The intensity, heat, interest turned
right up and left me wanting more; more story and Lily + Ryder moments!
Sometimes I got a bit confused, due to
everything that was going. But to tell you the truth, it was that good, I just kept powering through!
Don’t know about you guys, but throughout the
whole story, I was always rooting for Team Ryder! The main character, Lily was likeable
and interesting to read about, I’m sure everyone only wanted a good outcome for
her.
The past and
present in this story was entwined together seamlessly, giving you just the
right amount of what's going on to help you understand what needs to happen in
the story. Twists and turns are weaved throughout the whole story and will leave
you wondering with curiosity, trying to figure out what’s around the corner.
Don’t be fooled by this girly, pink cover. The
pages of this book are filled with suspense, action and mystery!
