Everyone loves the Graces. Fenrin, Thalia, and Summer Grace are captivating, wealthy, and glamorous. They’ve managed to cast a spell over not just their high school but also their entire town—and they’re rumored to have powerful connections all over the world. If you’re not in love with one of them, you want to be them. Especially River: the loner, new girl at school. She’s different from her peers, who both revere and fear the Grace family. She wants to be a Grace more than anything. And what the Graces don’t know is that River’s presence in town is no accident.
This fabulously addictive fantasy combines sophisticated and haunting prose with a gut-punching twist that readers will be dying to discuss. Perfect for fans of We Were Liars as well as nostalgic classics like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the 1996 movie The Craft, The Graces marks the beginning of a new wave of teen witches.

I barely got through the first few chapters of this one. It is nothing but obsession with a group of teens. Did someone say Twilight? I mean this was like if Twilight would have been on crack and Bella would have been some crazed stalker.
I made it to around page 50 before I just called it quits. This one is very boring and I just couldn't force myself to read anymore.
Flat story, Ridiculous Flat Characters, Predictable
Another note I would like to cover is I loved the Sweep series by Tiernan I haven't finished it but I have read some of them. This is NOT like that!!!
