Summary from Goodreads:
15-year-old Julie Richardson is about to learn that being the daughter of a witch isn't all it's cracked up to be. When she and her best friend, Marcus, witness an elderly lady jettisoned out the front door of her home, it's pretty obvious to Julie there's a supernatural connection. 

In fact, there's a whisper of menace behind increasing levels of poltergeist activity all over town. After a large-scale paranormal assault on Julie's high school, her mother falls victim to the spell Endless Night. Now it's a race against time to find out who is responsible or Julie won't just lose her mother's soul, she'll lose her mother's life.

Thoughts:
For me, the book hit all the right notes. A romance that is sweet instead of overwhelming, a quirky young female witch and host of colourful characters that makes reading the book such a joyful experience.

The story is light, funny and entertaining with just a bit of mystery since Julie found out that someone has been targeting her family. Her relationship with her mother and her best friend turned boyfriend is also heartwarming and I'm so glad that they ended up together.

Recommended for: fans of witches
Verdict: 4 stars.
