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.

My Stance:
Hexed, a book that frankly I haven't heard much about, and when looking for books this month, I didn't see much that was coming out and dug deeper. This book stood out on the gorgeous cover alone. First off, the girl is pretty almost could be beautiful but she looks so demented and evil in just how she is postured alone. There is something sinister about the cover. And the synopsis just almost confuses the whole message.
Indigo, what an odd name, is the popular girl in the school. I think of her as a snobby, stuck-up girl who pretty much throws a hissy fit if she doesn't get her way. I want more from her character than that, and it sounds like the book is setup to be a 'Pretty Little Liars' trilogy with some sci-fi in it. However, the sci-fi is the best part of the book. I don't know if I'll enjoy the book, but I am looking forward to adding it to my collection.
