(RabidReads.com)Mean girls, or the so called It Girls of high school, can make other girls life miserable, that’s a given. But what if the Queen Bee of the It Girls has supernatural powers? Powers that date back centuries, recently awakened by her using a voodoo spell, and used to keep her fellow It Girls loyal, and keep one particular young man under her thumb-and submissive. That’s the premise of this young adult read, and it had me on the edge of my seat several times while reading.When seventeen year old Emily and her father relocate to a small town in New Jersey after her mother’s death, she’s really not happy. She’s nowhere near done grieving for her lost mother and now she has to start over at a new high school, middle of her senior year. The first person she meets at school is Noah, when she literally runs into him. It’s not long before she realizes that there’s something up with Noah-and not in a good way. But he seems to like her, and he’s hot and a jock, just to keep things more interesting. Sarah is the Queen Bee of the school and not at all pleased that Noah seems interested in Emily. Noah is her property period, end of discussion, and she wasn’t having Emily trying for him-even though it’s Noah that’s interested in Emily. And this puts Emily on Sarah’s radar. Not a good thing with any Queen Bee, but Sarah is just plain evil personified. When Emily witnesses Noah being mentally tortured by Sarah to the point of hospitalization, she knows she has to help Noah get out from under Sarah’s spell.
Emily was an interesting character, and not very typical for a YA heroine. She tells lies about all sorts of things to people-especially her father. He’s about had it with her lies, but they are still all each other has in the world. She does a lot of things that I would never have done at her age, taking the car and driving an hour away on a school night, things like that. Of course she gets into trouble and continues to do things like that. She has reasons to do with helping Noah, but to her dad it’s just another time she has lied to him. I was a bit frustrated with her at times. I should also mention that she has a paranormal gift of her own. One that causes her to draw pictures of people that are going to die. Noah is a good guy, but since he is under Sarah’s spell, we don’t see as much of his personality-except in a couple of safe zones he has developed where he can not be seen by Sarah. He does care for Emily and he spends time trying to keep Sarah from hurting her. On Sarah’s part, there really isn’t anything redeeming about her. Perfect high school villain.
This ended up being a bit scary at times, and was way more than just a voodoo spell read. There’s reasons behind everything that happens and pretty much all of it is paranormal. There’s a big twist I never saw coming, a mystery, and some actual real life and death moments. If you like YA books that feature heroines that are not cookie cutter, romance, and some fairly unique paranormal, bordering on horror, elements, this may be one you may enjoy. For those that don’t like a book that takes place partially at high school, not going to lie, there are plenty of those scenes. But there’s just as many that don’t take place there. I did enjoy the read although at times I was a little frustrated by Emily. And actually even with the lies, she was otherwise very likable.
I would recommend this to paranormal romance readers aged 14 plus. FYI-No name of a sequel is given, but there is mention of a second book in an authors note I read on Amazon.

Something like Voodoo eBook Rebecca Hamilton Reviews
Emily has a hard time telling the truth but being in witness protection doesn't make that easy. After a tragic accident her family relocates to a small town in New Jersey. She isn't good at making friend and this town is no exceptions, by the first day she has made enemies, who would thought having a run and collide with what appear to be the cuties boy in school could do that. She had barely spoke to him, being to embarrassed. The twist Emily has a gift that could save this boys life. who would have thought this small town would have the answers to Emily most thought about questions.
This book had me from page one, heartbreak, mystery, suspense, let's not forget paranormal. I was on the edge every step of this book, not knowing what would happen next. I was even surprised which doesn't happen often. This book is very clean, no foul language, perfect for teens. This is a stand alone but it has been left for there to be a continuation, and I for one would love to read more about Noah and Emily. Think The Craft meets Pretty little lairs it is a phenomenal book and very unique. I love that this book can be included in many genres. Rebecca Hamilton has out did herself again, I will be a life time reader of her work. Just fantastic love, love, love it. Highly recommend this
Let me start by saying Rebecca Hamilton does it right once again.
This book is a YA so it's a clean read. The very first pages of the book grabbed my attention which is very important for me to continue reading the book. Starts with high school, teenage problems, bitching , popular girls, cute guy, best friend and of course teachers and parents who always try to find fault with you.
Emily is the new girl to the school and Noah is the cute guy who is under the influence of the Vodoo queen Sarah aka the popular girl/ It girl of the school. The whole story revolves around how she tries to understand and help Noah (not willingly at first) in turn finding the truth about her mother's mysterious death and her gift which as per her is useless and disturbing.
It's full of action, voodoo, finding out what it is and how Sarah is using it and most importantly how all of their families are connected.
The character of Hazel the consultant witch is also amazing, while Emily's dad was a typical dad who doesn't believe his daughter and then jumps to protect her.
An amazing read... You can't go wrong with this one
