A Kappa Rho Nu, más néven a Hollók, nem egy átlagos főiskolai lányszövetség. Tagjai becsvágyók, gyönyörűek és okosak, és a Westerly Főiskola legbefolyásosabb hallgatói. Messze földön híresek a bulijaikról. De a Hollók közös titkot őriznek: a szövetség valójában boszorkányok gyülekezete. Scarlett Winter mindig is tudta magáról, hogy boszorkány, és eltökélt szándéka, hogy a szövetség elnökévé válasszák, ahogy előtte az anyját és a nővérét is. De ha a múltjának egy fájdalmas titka valaha is napvilágra kerül, akkor mindent, de mindent elveszíthet... Vivi Devereaux-nak sejtelme sincs arról, hogy boszorkány, és sehol sem lakott elég sokáig, hogy barátokat szerezzen. Amikor végre megszerzi a vágyott tagságot, és beléphet a Hollók közé, megfogadja, hogy mindent elkövet, hogy a varázsszövetséghez tartozhasson. Egyedül Scarlett áll az útjában, aki nem tartja alkalmasnak arra Vivit, hogy igazi Holló váljon belőle. De amikor egy sötét erő bukkan fel a kampuszon, a lányoknak félre kell tenniük a versengést, hogy megmenthessék a szövetségbeli nővéreiket. Valaki a Hollók titkának nyomára bukkant. És ez a valaki mindent megtesz, hogy égni lássa ezeket a boszorkányokat...

Bibbidi-bobbidi-blood. Everyone knows that a fairy godmother helped Cinderella get to the ball where she met the prince. No one knows that the fairy godmother''s motives for helping Cinderella might not have been as charming as they seem. Until now ... For centuries, the enchanted members of the Entente used their magic to keep the Thirteen Queendoms in harmony. Until the day that Queen Magrit outlawed magic, executed the Entente, and plunged the queendoms into war. Only one Entente survives. Alone and magicless, Farrow dreams of nothing but revenge. And the best way to reach the queen is through her son, Prince Mather, who is nearing the age when he will need a bride. But the closer Farrow gets to the prince, the more she finds herself drawn to him.

Set in a lush, dangerous world woven with fairy tale mythology, New York Times bestselling author Danielle Paige launches a brand new Fairy Godmother origin story full of intrigue, magic, and romance.

Michael Tillotson''s Agency Reduction Formation theory is designed to expose, situate, and explain ideological trends that are intended to compel African people to distance themselves from their collective identity (Tillotson 2011, 62). Identity provides African people the internal construction to seek self-determination that allows them to strive for agency, the ability to provide the psychological and cultural resources necessary for the advancement of human freedom (Asante 2007, 40-41). In this study, I have added an agential location dimension to the discourse of "identity names" utilizing Afrocentric analysis to interrogate whether those specific "identity names" position African people toward victorious consciousness, an attitude which reflects a commitment to Africana history, values, and culture. In addition to exploring why it is problematic for African people to identify with terms such as "Nigga", "Bad Bitch", "Savage" and "Trap Queen" given the controversy sustained by their overuse as racial epithets and radical forms of misnaming, I also address how such "identity words" are aggressive forms of Agency Reduction Formation. To demonstrate how the use of the previously mentioned "identity words" is an agency reducing activity, I analyzed the words and photographs of African men and women featured on the social networking platform Instagram. Through content analysis, I claimed that African people identifying particularly as a "Nigga", "Bad Bitch", "Savage" and "Trap Queen" within their profiles and posts create an environment for dis-empowerment, identity dislocation, and internalized oppression. If tendencies to use these "agency reducing identity words" continues in this manner, African people will experience ongoing cultural dislocation that diminishes their "need for a collective agency that fights against oppression."
