Description
For high school senior Nell and her friends, a vacation house on a private Florida island sounds like the makings of a dream spring break. But Nell brings secrets with her—secrets that fuse with the island's tragic history, trapping them all with a curse that surrounds the island in a toxic, vengeful mist and the surrounding waters with an unseen, devouring beast.
Getting out alive means risking her friendships, her sanity, and even her own life. In order to save herself and her friends, Nell will have to face memories she'd rather leave behind, reveal the horrific truth behind the encounter that changed her life one year ago, and face the shadow that's haunted her since childhood.
Easier said than done. But when Nell's friends reveal that they each brought secrets of their own, a solution even more dangerous than the curse begins to take shape. Reading like a YA feminist spin on Stephen King’s The Mist, So Witches We Became is a diverse, queer horror about female friendship, the emotional aftermath of surviving assault, and how to find power in the shadows of your past.
Step into your witchy power or be swallowed by the curse—the choice is yours.
★ "Skillfully crafted and sharply descriptive with horrifying imagery to spare ... Powerfully angry and vengeance-laden, with terrifying and very human monsters." —School Library Journal, starred review

Feminismus, Queer, Hexerei und Idiotische Typen
Hab mir das Buch gestern im Thalia gekauft wegen dem Satz auf dem Cover "If Boys will be boys, girls will fight back". Der Satz war genug das es interessant für mich erschien. In dem Buch geht es um Nell (eine Horror Autorin), Harper, Dia, Harry. Die 4 gehen eine Woche Urlaub auf einer Insel Urlaub machen und lernen dort Tris kennen, zwischen ihr und Nell funkt es direkt. Am folgenden Tag kommt Gavin (Freund von Harper) und Christoph (Gavins BFF) an. Danach geht aufeinmal alles schief. Es ist extrem gut geschrieben und sobald man die Dinge kombiniert freut man sich eigentlich nurnoch mehr!!??
