The Last Wrathwitch David — Paul George

Living among Northern California's giant redwoods, fifteen-year-old Affinity Blending is fine with being a half-assed witch. She's been on the run for years, no time for witchcraft, just trying to stay ahead of the witch-hunting demon who imprisoned her mother in Hell. If she could just be a normal teenager and attend the same school for more than like, two seconds? That'd be amazing.But Affinity's got a terrible secret about her mom's abduction, a secret she hides even from herself. So when she discovers there might be a way to rescue her mom? Half-assed is suddenly no longer an option. She has to become a powerful wrathwitch.To do that, she works through her mom's ancient spellbook, and is soon conjuring enchanted fern groves and befriending depressed rain gods. But when the book throws wannabe gangster crows in her way, finishing becomes impossible. Quitting though? Not an option. It'd mean losing her mom forever.
