The Awesome by Eva Darrows
5.0

This book was so much fun! Maggie had Buffy vibes, but if Buffy were a normal person with an even more hilarious attitude!

The concept felt original even though we've seen paranormal stuff before. The writing had kind of a Diablo Cody vibe, like if Juno and Jennifer's Body had a baby. There was plenty of action, and the side character's were awesome. A lot of people would probably criticize Maggie's mom, but she was awesome! Ian was cute and had perfect swoon. Lauren was also awesome! So yeah, the book definitely deserves to be called The Awesome.

Overall the writing was smart, witty, and fun. I've read the Hollow Girl, which is from another one of the author's pen names, and this was just as good even though the books are totally different! Highly recommended for some coolness!
