Last in the Trilogy Ruins the First Two. Please don’t get this book if you’ve heard that it’s has good queer representation for YA literature. Some of my favorite books have sad or tragic endings, but the way Sally Green ended her trilogy made me lose all faith in her ability to write queer characters. It was honestly appalling. I’ve literally never written a negative review about a book before the one I wrote for the final book on goodreads, and when I saw that it was $1.99 this week on iBooks, I felt that I had to warn readers hoping for a book with good representation not to waste their time. I actually liked this first book, but I can’t even look at it any more after reading the last one.

AMAZING. Literally one of the best books i've read in a long time. I'm seriously dying for the next book to come out! Nathan is so cool, and the story makes me never want to stop reading. Simply amazing.

Great book. Better than I was expecting. I can't wait to read the sequel.

Awsome. One of the greatest books I've ever read I really can't describe it to any other book it truly is unique

It wasn’t half bad. Get it?

Amazing!!!!. This is a fantastic novel! It follow an unorthodox storyline and surprises you. It's violent, frank and such a brilliant piece of fiction!

Waste of my time. I read about this in the WSJ and the reviews are usually very reliable. Not the case here. I kept waiting for this to get better. It did not. I can't believe I read the whole book and that this is considered a children's book with all the violence. Teenagers maybe but not younger.

Loved it!. It was a great easy read. So entertaining and easy to engage. Can't wait for the rest of the books to come out! Movies after???

Loved it. The book was a great read and very interesting, got through the first half in the first few hours after I purchased it. Spread the rest through a couple of days since I didn't want to finish it too quickly. I enjoyed the themes and the story. It was a new and amazing world to view and I like that it had that secret world feel, do to the witches living covertly amongst the the rest of the world. I also think that it was an interesting take on magic. I also enjoyed the use of second person point of view story telling. That part made it feel as though the reader was a part of the story. If you like witches and magic you should read this book.

Half Bad. This story of Nathan, a mixed-blood witch who is not trusted by either white or black witches, unfortunately had resonances of racial prejudice, even though the author goes to lengths to make it clear that 'white' doesn't equal good and black doesn't equal bad. Apparently being mixed blood IS a problem, however. The story is told rather simply and with sympathy for Nathan, who has never known his black witch father, Marcus. Raised among his dead mother's white witch family, he is accepted and loved by all but one of his half-siblings, but he is marked by the white witch leadership as one who must be suspected and evaluated each year for evidence of black witch tendencies. The police-state mentality of the white witches, who obviously think they are the good witches, shows many ugly ways to disregard the rights of Nathan, the mixed-blood 'freak', in order to protect the white witch population, who live amidst the fain (normal human) population of England and Europe. We never learn much about the society of the black witches, but apparently they try to kill white witches. In turn the white witches have a class of witches called Hunters who are skilled at locating, tracking and killing black witches. Somehow Nathan manages to fall in love with a young white witch named Annalise, getting them both in trouble. Soon Nathan is taken from his grandmother's care and isolated as a prisoner of a guard-witch who confines him and regulates his life with reward and punishment conditioning. As his 17th birthday nears, and he will become a full witch, is he being trained to kill his own father? This is one of the threads of storyline that keeps this plot moving and makes the reader engage in the book. Does Nathan even know his own mind, and what kind of witch he will become? Does his father even know about his son's life of doubt and torment? Does he care? These are ingredients that work to keep the pages turning quickly. There seems no doubt that a sequel must be in the works.

Great book!. This was a great read! A little hard to get into at first but I'm definitely glad I did! I quickly moved onto the next one and I am excitedly waiting for the last!
