Book Review: The School for Wicked Witches by Will Taylor

The School for Wicked Witches by Will Taylor
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A book about a school for witches that is set in Oz?

Sold.

I was locked in.

But sadly it fell flat for me in so many ways.

I did like the magic in the book-it was cute and fun and I wanted more. The schools that Ava went to sounded like a fun place I would teach in. But the whole escaping from one school to get to another, and then meeting a very wicked witch who went to the same wicked school who wanted to see them again after they made a deal with her, to a boy who has bone fire magic who can glow like he's ghost rider...

I was expecting more from this book, even though it is a middle grade, but it felt like it was lacking something and I couldn't put my finger on it. Maybe if I read the second one it'll be better and much more fun, because now she wants to leave the WOW school and go back to the other school, which in my mind doesn't make any sense, but the more I think about it, it might just make sense after all.
