It was a normal year until a school project turned my life upside down. What do I choose? Do I go for the easy way out and leave my town in danger or do I save my town as a young girl?
What has my life turned into? How many magical books are there in my town? Who has them checked out? Is there more than just magical books? Is it the town or the people?
What am I? What is my Dad not telling me? Did my Mom die when she was coming back from a trip?
These are all questions that young Sadie Nelson had to ask herself. She did what she thought would make it safe again. Would you run into the flaming fire or run in the other direction?
I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began.
I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them.
That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world.
... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all.
