|title=Half Bad
|author=Sally Green
|rating=4.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Before I start, I'll declare an uninterest. I'm not really into the paranormal genre, and I'm definitely not into paranormal romances. I like fantasy and I've nothing against the supernatural. It's just the predictability of the paranormal genre that puts me off. I prefer books that surprise me rather than books that comfort me by giving me what I expect. So, you realise, I'm coming at ''Half Bad'' from the perspective of an ''un''-fan. And I loved it!
