I can't help but be angry when I think of The Magnolia League. I think it's in part because there was so much potential yet this potential was never realized. Instead, the authors wrote the book in the worst way possible. I'll start with the first and most obvious problem with the story: the main...
drey’s thoughts: Alexandra Lee is sixteen years old and orphaned when her mother’s van goes off a cliff. Two months later, she is moved to Savannah, Georgia, to live with her grandmother. Going from hippy to southern belle is a culture shock to say the least, and she doesn’t intend to acquire any o...
While reading the first part of this book I was preparing a gushing review in my head. And then came some stuff I had issues with. But in the end it sort of worked out, let me explain.I really liked Alex. I liked that she wasn't overwhelmed by all the money and all it can buy. She grew up on a commu...
After the sudden death of her mother, Alex is forced to leave the free spirited commune where she's spent most of her life to live with her very traditional and very southern grandmother in Savannah, Georgia. Alex is like a fish out of water in Savannah. She doesn't fit in with the pretty, superfici...
In Savannah, Georgia, the women are polite, the young ladies are presented to society, and they all have afternoon tea. What you don't know is that under the perfect and pristine, lies a little hoodoo. It shouldn't matter what you do to put your best foot forward, does it, as long as you do it with ...
Bizarre, strange book. Pretty much enforces that girls have to be thin and dressed to the nines to be worth anything, that women need no wrinkles and love spells to keep their husbands. I couldn't relate at all with the protagonist in any of her phases-dreads or debutante. And the end...why did I re...
What really got me about this book was the plot. I fell into with ease and enjoyed the trickery that The Magonlia League does. I have to admit that the plot twist is amazing! I would have never thought it be what it be, but I like it a lot.The main character Alex is like no other. She doesn't fit i...
After losing her mother in a car accident, Alex is sent to live with her grandmother in Savannah. She goes from a communal farm in California to the privileged life of a Southern debutante. This is quite an adjustment for Alex. She isn't interested in her new lifestyle. She also learns that there is...
I adore books that take place in the South, so when I read the blurb for this one, I knew I needed to read it. If Margaret Stohl & Kami Garcia’s Beautiful Creatures had a love child with Mean Girls (the film), this would be it. A fish out of water story with a dash of Southern gothic romance, witchc...
I had some really low expectations for this book. I thought this book was going to be kind of ridiculous. I thought that I would have to suspend my disbelief to unrivaled proportions. Wrong! What I thought would be corny, was so very awesome! This book was probably the most fun I've had so far this ...
