Convince us to read the book: This is a really good book about a girl that gets shipped off to a summer camp for what she calls "freaky freak", aka witches, vampires, werewolves, fairies, and shapeshifters. I really liked that it was based in real life but had some supernatural twists.
Compelling Aspect of the Book: I really liked the supernatural/reality mix, as well as the love twists. The main character and her friends were funny and endearing.
Comments: This is the beginning of a series, but it still had its own story (start, middle, end) which a lot of books that are part of a series don't have anymore, which made me happy, and want to read the rest of the books.
Cover: Yes, the cover (and title) compelled me to pick up the book. It didn't really reflect the story too much.
Did you finish: Yes
Were you disappointed with the book: No, I really liked this book.
