Family Magic is most definitely my genre of book, with witches, demons and vampires. Syd wanted out of the family coven, she hates the way magic makes her feel physically. she also has trouble at school she is lonely, always the new girl with no friends, she just doesn’t fit in.

Things turn out very differently when she learns that someone has it in for the Hayle Coven and she seems to be the only one that may be able to stop them.

I loved Syd’s character and her grandmother was a hoot.

This is an exciting, funny at times, magical read that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

I can’t wait to read the other books from The Hayle Coven Novels.… (mer)

I got this book for free about 4 years ago but as I accumulated books, this one just moved further and further down my tbr. The writing is great which is what kept me hooked. This is the first book in a 4 book series. However, I won’t be continuing the series because the reviews on them have been rather iffy.

I am going to start with saying that the writing made Run very entertaining. We are introduced to the main character Reid who is in an unfortunate situation, fighting for survival. He gets into survival mode quick and tries to figure out his situation all while avoiding creatures hunting him and other children down.

We don’t learn anything in this book. Reid and fellow children are running from their lives from these hunters that have animalistic qualities. The description of the hunters made me think of the Hunters in the video game Left 4 Dead 2. Other than that this was a good read but I won’t be reading the other books in the series.
