Rebel Belle (YA)


Book #72 Read in 2015
Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins

This book reminded me of the movie of Buffy the Vampire Slayer...but better.  Harper is the popular girl in her high school class....valedictorian in the making, class President, going to make her debut soon.  At a school dance, a janitor passes on his seemingly super powers to her.  Harper has no idea what is going on and feels even more confused when her teacher tries to kill her and she ends up killing him with her high-heeled shoe.  Eventually, Harper learns she has become a Paladin...a sort of super guard to an Oracle.  Now she needs to figure out how to balance this superpowered guard job with homework, dates with her boyfriend and her curfew.  This book is full of humor and action, along with some interesting supernatural/mythological items and some romance.  I enjoyed it and think high school girls would love it.  I have #2 in my TBR pile.
