If high school is all about social status, Indigo Blackwood has it made. Sure, her quirky mom owns an occult shop, and a nerd just won’t stop trying to be her friend, but Indie is a popular cheerleader with a football-star boyfriend and a social circle powerful enough to ruin everyone at school. Who wouldn’t want to be her?
Then a guy dies right before her eyes. And the dusty old family Bible her mom is freakishly possessive of is stolen. But it’s when a frustratingly sexy stranger named Bishop enters Indie’s world that she learns her destiny involves a lot more than pom-poms and parties. If she doesn’t get the Bible back, every witch on the planet will die. And that’s seriously bad news for Indie, because according to Bishop, she’s a witch too.
Suddenly forced into a centuries-old war between witches and sorcerers, Indie’s about to uncover the many dark truths about her life—and a future unlike any she ever imagined on top of the cheer pyramid.
Why I’m waiting?
Another witch book! Gimmmmmeeeeeeee.
I love the aspect a “centuries-old war between witches and sorcerers.” I bet the relationship between these two groups is so rich with history. It makes me wonder what’s the cause of the war and the source of their hatred for each other. The bible kind of makes me think of the Book of Shadows and that gets me more pumped for Hexed.
What books are you waiting on?

Claire @ Bitches With Books says
I’m still on the fence about this… I love witchy books but I’m not too sure about the high school element to be honest.
