"In this fierce debut, a trilogy opener, Clarke conjures up a powerful, passionate tale of female friendship and found family. . . Unapologetically queer . . . and seething with raw emotion, this fantasy opens strong while leaving much to be explored in future installments." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "Readers will love the spooky pop-culture easter eggs and appreciate a fresh spin on the mean girls theme: Readers won't despise, but will root for, this cunning, crass, and fiercely caring coven. Bitingly honest, fast-paced dialogue is a solid strength, as is the lyrical language, which is so intimate that readers will viscerally know how magic and emotions feel in Sideways' body. . . Teenage girl magic is palpable, urgent, and simply marvelous in this must-have debut." -- Kirkus , starred review "Loner, lesbian teenage witch Sideways bubbles with nerves, insecurities, and longing in this action packed debut from a young queer writer. Jam packed with intensity of feeling ALL the feelings, Clarke takes us on a roller coaster ride, oscillating between headiness of recognizing one's own power, first date nerves, trying to smash the patriarchy while looking great at a party, and the dizzying joy of finding your clan. Bonus points for super sweet gay dads and all around great representation of diverse characters." --Chana Porter, author of The Seep " The Scapegracers wallops you with all the raw, thrilling vertigo of young love and new friendship, alongside a deeply-plotted mythology that will delight any magic fan. It's a jewel-studded book, with an unearthly glow. You will definitely want to join this coven." --Jess Zimmerman, author of Basic Witches "Sapphic teenage witches and slippery vengeance magic? Yes, please! Clarke's entertaining debut captures all the pleasure and pathos of viciously loyal high school cliques." --Katharine Duckett, author of Miranda in Milan "This is the dark, twisty, witchy book I've always wanted. Hannah's writing is brilliant and gorgeous and firework bright." --Kat Howard, author of An Unkindness of Magicians "The magic especially intrigued me--so spooky and weird and dangerous but addictive." --Shveta Thakrar, author of Star Daughter "A fierce and magnificent debut, raw and wet as bloody scratches from manicured nails.... Clarke tells a violently beautiful story of the magic girls make together, whom it threatens and whom it attracts.... I loved everything about this book, from the hot, suturing needle of Clarke's prose to the broken-glass grind of Sideways's voice. Clarke's girls are glittering and terrifying, in love with one another and in opposition to the world that disdains and desires them.... As tender and intimate as it is ferocious and volatile, Scapegracers deserves to be this generation's go-to grimoire. May it launch a thousand covens of angry, loving, brilliant girls." --Amal El-Mohtar in The New York Times Book Review Holiday Books Guide, "Loner, lesbian teenage witch Sideways bubbles with nerves, insecurities, and longing in this action packed debut from a young queer writer.

"The magic especially intrigued me--so spooky and weird and dangerous but addictive." --Shveta Thakrar, author of Star Daughter

Synopsis
An outcast teenage lesbian witch finds her coven hidden amongst the popular girls in her school, and performs some seriously badass magic in the process. Skulking near the bottom of West High's social pyramid, Sideways Pike lurks under the bleachers doing magic tricks for Coke bottles. As a witch, lesbian, and lifelong outsider, she's had a hard time making friends. But when the three most popular girls pay her $40 to cast a spell at their Halloween party, Sideways gets swept into a new clique. The unholy trinity are dangerous angels, sugar-coated rattlesnakes, and now-unbelievably-Sideways' best friends. Together, the four bond to form a ferocious and powerful coven. They plan parties, cast curses on dudebros, try to find Sideways a girlfriend, and elude the fundamentalist witch hunters hellbent on stealing their magic. But for Sideways, the hardest part is the whole 'having friends' thing. Who knew that balancing human interaction with supernatural peril could be so complicated? Rich with the urgency of feral youth, The Scapegracers explores growing up and complex female friendship with all the rage of a teenage girl. It subverts the trope of competitive mean girls and instead portrays a mercilessly supportive clique of diverse and vivid characters. It is an atmospheric, voice-driven novel of the occult, and the first of a three-book series., A YA crossover title combining the perennially popular genres of witches and high school society told in a bright, distinctive, and inclusive voice, and the debut of a talented young voice writing Erewhon's first series acquisition., An Indie Bestseller! 2021 Locus Award Finalist for Best Young Adult Novel 2021 Dragon Award Finalist for Best Young Adult/Middle Grade Novel "As tender and intimate as it is ferocious and volatile, Scapegracers deserves to be this generation's go-to grimoire.

- t***e (93)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseDescription of 'like new' was accurate, book arrived a couple of days ahead of estimated date, and it arrived in a slightly padded envelope but no damage was on the book. The price was a little high for a book that's 2 years old, but cheaper than what I found elsewhere. I would buy from this seller again.
- d***m (16)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe manga came just as described by Big River Books and I am overall very happy with it. One thing that really impressed me was the way, the team handled some issues/false tracking info, which was 100% caused by errors on my and the delivering company's side. They handled the situation with utmost patience and were very customer orientated, which I do not take for granted, considering the circumstances.
