The Black Witch by Laurie Forest

adventurous challenging dark emotional sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Similar to Harry Potter (at a school, an evil force coming into power, main characters parents no longer around)  but with huge focus on systematic issues, including racism, sexism, and homophobia. 

I really struggled with the main character for the first half of this book but that is kind of the point.
