Spookiest Reads All Year!

 Hello, ready to review my spookiest reads of the year?

(Don't worry no spoilers!)

I am reviewing five books: Hooky vol.1 by Miriam Bonastre Tur, Hooky vol.2 by Miriam Bonastre Tur, Vampirates book 1 by Justin Somper, Wandmaker by Ed Masessa, and City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab.

1. Hooky, volume one by Miriam Bonastre Tur

This book was really, really good. It's about these twin witches named Dani and Dorian. Dani has something wrong with her magic and Dorian is really good at magic. They end up in this small town where Master Pendragon teaches them magic and they become friends with an unlikely group and face lots of challenges like witch hating villagers, darkness trying to rule, witch battles and messed up magic.

I would give Hooky vol. 1 and 2 five stars! It was amazing!

2. Hooky, volume 2 by Miriam Bonastre Tur

In this book something has happened, and they have to go into hiding but it didn't last long before they go back into adventuring! We see a lot of the king of witches, they break into a sacred location, and attempt to rescue a prince, and so much more.

Another five stars!

3. Vampirates (book 1) by Justin Somper

This book is one of my all-time favorites! It's about these two twins (Conner and Grace) that lived in a lighthouse with their dad who sadly passes away. Not wanting to go to the orphanage or be adopted, they take their father's boat out to sea to run away. Their boat gets destroyed and they almost drown. Conner is saved by the pirate ship the Diablo and Grace is rescued by the vampirates ship. The vampirates are not what they seem. Knowing in both their hearts the other twin was still alive, they made it their destined to find each other.

I would also give this book five star!

Wandmaker by Ed Masessa

Henry Leach made his first wand, and his first spell turns his little sister into a hedgehog. Then his mother all the sudden leaves without warning. Henry finds himself working with a grand wand master named Coralis, Henry is trying to learn to use his wand and tries to stop an evil wand master in the process.

To be honest, this book was really slow and for a lot of the book they were on a train stopping every now and then. I found this book kind of boring, and it didn't hold my attention for very long. There were some cool magical elements. I would recommend this to readers that enjoy a slow burn story.

I would give this book three and a half stars, because I wanted it to be a bit more action packed.

 City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab

I love this book! I am currently reading it. I'm only one hundred pages in right now but I can tell it's going to be one of my favorites!

Cassidy is saved from drowning and now she can see ghosts and her best friend, Jacob, happens to be a ghost! Cassidy can't wait for a summer of no ghosts, but her parents have a different idea. Her parents are ghost hunters, and they have a new job in Scotland...one of the most haunted cities in the world! Now Cassidy is being sucked into the ghost world and has to rely on Jacob to help her get out. This book is action packed, full of ghosts and a great friendship. 

I give this book five stars!

I hope you read at least one of these books this spooky season!

Thanks for viewing!
