Top Contributor: Fantasy BooksSamantha Jacobey’s, The Wicked Awakened, is a perfect Halloween read. Sarah and her childhood best friend, Karen, are off to college. Unlike Karen, Sarah is a dedicated student. Karen has other interests. I loved the depiction of the two childhood friends and their relationship. I thought the author did an excellent job of portraying the complex ties that bonds friends and how it can mask competing impulses. In high school, both girls shared an interest in witchcraft. Karen’s ties went deeper than Sarah knew. Karen is involved with a dangerous coven, who are interested in recruiting Sarah. Things go bump in the night, creative and original twists. Stories involving the occult. Some of the twists and turns, I didn’t see coming.
