Spell Bound by Rachel Hawkins
5.0
Spell Bound is an absolutely, positively, amazing conclusion to the Hex Hall series by Rachel Hawkins. If you haven’t read this series yet, you definitely must!
*This review may contain spoilers from the previous books in this series.*
Spell Bound picks up right where Demonglass leaves off. Sophie’s powers have been stripped away by the Council, and she doesn’t know the fate of her father, Archer, Cal or Jenna after the tragic events that happened at Thorne Hall. After being sent to find the Brannicks, a group of prodigium hunting women, Sophie discovers that a massive war is on the horizon. And it’s up to Sophie to stop it.
Sophie Mercer is definitely one of my most favorite characters. She reminds me of myself, in the way that when she gets nervous, she tends to be snarky and sarcastic. I am totally the same way. I love watching her grow over the series; she has definitely become an amazingly strong character. I just adore her, especially her sarcasm.
I love Sophie’s relationships with all the special people in her life; Archer, Jenna, Cal, her parents. With Archer, I have always liked him, but was suspicious as well. That definitely changed this time around. Jenna is the most perfect friend, ever. Then there’s Cal, who became part of a love triangle early in the series. I definitely have a huge soft spot in my heart for him. We also get to see quite a bit of Elodie this time around, and I definitely like her more now than I did when we first met her in Hex Hall!
The book is highly addictive. The plot, all the action and suspense, the characters, it will all leave you flying through the pages. The ending of the book was shocking, and at one point had me in tears. The storyline was wrapped up nicely though, and I was left with only a few questions that didn’t get answered. I wonder if we were left hanging on purpose, as it were…
I want to also mention, that this book has so many hilarious moments in it. I laughed so many times, my kids kept asking what was so funny. I loved it!
Overall, I LOVE THIS SERIES! It’s so good. If you haven’t read it yet, I definitely recommend that you do. Spell Bound is a wonderful conclusion to an amazing series.
Happy Reading!
