White is For Magic is the sequel to Blue is For Nightmares. In this one, Stacey is having dreams again, like the ones she had about Drea. Only this time, they’re about her. She’s still dating Chad, but she falls for a mysterious new student named Jacob that wants to talk to her because he’s a witch too, and he thinks he can help Stacey with her nightmares.
In the book, the man molested Maura and got put in jail. Stacey was young and thought it would be smart to send him a letter saying he was going to pay for what he did to Maura.
Stacey was young and thought it would be smart to send him a letter saying she would get revenge when he got out. It made him angry, so he came to get her.
I give this book four stars because it was hard to figure out who the guy trying to kill Stacey was, and it was interesting trying to guess. I still didn’t like Stacey’s personality, because she was feeling sorry for herself instead of trying to figure out who the guy was. Also, she kept blowing Chad off and complaining about it, and it started to get annoying. If you like trying to solve mysteries, you will like White is For Magic.
