Putting this one aside for now. There is too much telling and not enough showing, the characters aren't pleasant to read about, and it feels more like a vampire/zombie apocalypse story than one about magic and witches. Also, the number of times someone over the age of 16 is called "boy" or "girl" by someone over the age of 16 is very tiring... I may give it another try later, but for now, it's going into DNF.

Hmm so far this feels like fanfic (nothing wrong with fan fic!) but it's sloppy, repetitive, and not objective when it comes to character discriptions (we are basically told how to feel about each). This is a debut author so I'll give it a bit more time.
