Half Bad by Sally Green

5.0

This book had me gripped from start to finish. The writer has a unique style of writing and I love that it's simple and choppy because it feels like we're in the head of Nathan. It also has an array of characters, both young and old and Nathan's family was my favourite part because I adore it when YA incorporates the element of family in...I adored Arran. I'm in love with him and he's such a kind, loving character. Ellen is also very interesting and I want to learn more about her. Gabriel...*sigh* I fell in love with him from the start. I mean, he smiles 24/7 and is the BIGGEST bibliophile...I also liked Mary and Bob...I cried and laughed and rooted for my faves and this book was honestly an amazing and refreshing story about witches. The magic system was explained, not in too much detail so it didn't feel like info dumping. I was shockingly never bored nor could I bear to part ways with this book every night. I'm glad I've finished it and now I definitely need Half Wild. This book deserves more attention and ya'll should get it. Now. It's a 5/5 for me.
