The Near Witch by Victoria Schwab

I love Victoria Schwab! She is one of the best authors and if anybody has notices, the first review I made on this blog was for a book by Victoria Schwab. This is her debut novel and I freaking love it.

The Near Witch is only an old story told to frighten children.

If the wind calls at night, you must not listen. The wind is lonely, and always looking for company.

And there are no strangers in the town of Near.

These are the truths that Lexi has heard all her life.

But when an actual stranger-a boy who seems to fade like smoke-appears outside her home on the moor at night, she knows that at least one of these sayings is no longer true.

The next night, the children of Near start disappearing from their beds, and the mysterious boy falls under suspicion. Still, he insists on helping Lexi search for them. Something tells her she can trust him.

As the hunt for the children intensifies, so does Lexi's need to know-about the witch that just might be more than a bedtime story, about the wind that seems to speak through the walls at night, and about the history of this nameless boy.

Part fairy tale, part love story, Victoria Schwab's debut novel is entirely original yet achingly familiar: a song you heard long ago, a whisper carried by the wind, and a dream you won't soon forget.

I must say I liked this book, Victoria Schwab's debut novel, more than The Archived. I always liked witches better than ghosts. This is the second book I finish this week. I started it in June, I think! Or was it July? Never mind! I stared it a few months ago, because I had nothing to do. Oh, now I remember! It was the day I finished Poison study! I read the first two chapters and then I had stuff to do and I forgot about it. But I opened it today and I was suprised I remembered everything I had read before. I read some negative reviews about it. Yeah, I won't lie, this book is slow in the beginning. But it gets better and better and better until the end. It has a dash of mystery and creepiness and romance, of course. That was a thing I liked. The romance wasn't one of the main things. It was there, but other things were more important than it.
Oh, by the way, have you ever heard the phrase So many books, so little time. I alway thought I had enough time to read. Well, now things changed. I started studing German and I have to say this is the second book I finish this week. Today I went to a bookstore and bought two other books and tommorow I'm purchasing Scarlet by Marissa Meyer, because it's finally translated in Bulgarian. And I still have to finish  A Dance With Dragons and I have 200 books (literary) waiting on my Kindle and a big pile of paper books next to my bed.
So, yeah! German! It will be easy, they said! You'll lear it fast, they said! And I believed them!
See ya next time!
