The circle's power has lured her home.
Forced to move from sunny California to gloomy New England, Cassie longs for her old life. Even so, she feels a strange kinship to a terrifying group of teens who seem to rule her school. Initiated into the coven of witches that's controlled New Salem for hundreds of years, she's drawn into the Secret Circle, a thrill that's both intoxicating and deadly. But when she falls for the mysterious and intriguing Adam, Cassie must choose whether to resist temptation or risk dark forces to get what she wants—even if it means that one wrong move could ultimately destroy her.
Review:
The Secret Circle has a horror/romance genre which is extremely unusual yet works so well. The writers captures your attention right from the very beginning and really connects with the reader by making Cassie easy to emphasize with as she deals with the problems of being an only child of a single mother, moving school and not fitting in. However the story (and Cassies life) takes a dramatic turn when she becomes friends with the most beautiful girl in school and part of the terrifying gang that 3 of which are bullying her. She finds a string of events come her way such as making friends, witnessing death, discovering and being initiated into a frightening new world, betraying her best friend, finding and losing the love of her life, being blackmailed by her enemy and accidently murdering someone. With all thats going on in her life it's hard to believe that she is ever going to be happy, normalor even survive. Rating - 5 stars
