Firespell by Chloe Neill tells the story of Lily Parker. Lily's parents are going on a research trip to Germany, and Lily is left in St. Sophia's, an all girls' boarding school. She thinks the worst she has to deal with are the mega rich brat-packers of St. Sophia's, but when she follows her friend Scout into the labyrinth under the school, she realizes snobby blonds are the least of her problems.
This book was good, not great nor awesome, just good. I liked the book and found it quite interesting, but it wasn't literary excellence. (Even though most of the books I review aren't literary awesomeness, this one seems to be even more afflicted with non-literary excellence syndrome.) The characters were nice, but seemed little more than sarcastic blobs thrust upon the pages of this book. However, even for all its faults, this book was a fun read, and I think others should read it too.

P.S. There are so many sequels coming out to books I've reviewed (Beautiful Darkness to Beautiful Creatures, Linger to Shiver, Mr. Monster, to I Am Not A Serial Killer, and now Hexbound to this book, Firespell). I'm thinking of saving them all up and a having a month where I review all of the books, the Beautiful books, the " "er books, the Killer books, and the "Single-Word-Even-Though-They-Shouldn't-Be" books. What do you guys think?
P.P.S. Seriously, are there any readers of my blog? Please, if there are, post a comment and say something like "Hi, my name is so-and-so, I read your blog." I want you guys to do this because on some days (like today) I don't feel like there's any use in my blog. I like saying "blog". It's fun.
