The Blue Witch by Alane Adams

5.0

Actual Rating: 4.75

The Blue Witch is such a fun, magical middle-grade tale! Loosely drawing on Norse mythology, this follows Abigail, a 9-year-old witch whose magic has not yet appeared. She attends a school for witches where she befriends a local boy and faces nasty bullies. Apparently this is a prequel to another series set in the world and I would definitely read more. It's just a very fun, witchy book that is perfect for younger readers, all about friendship, dealing with bullies, and deciding who you want to be. Also there are dragons! Sort of, although they are called something else. Regardless, it's a very cute, enjoyable, and quick read at just over 200 pages. I recommend this as a very high quality pick from an indie author. I was sent an advance review copy by the publisher. All opinions are my own.
