"A secretive loner discovers her own hidden powers when she's taken under the wings of three glamorous witches"-- - Baker & Taylor
When River, a secretive loner, arrives in a town run by three powerful, teenage witches, she discovers her own hidden powers when she's taken under their wings. - Harry N. Abrams, Inc.
âThe Graces demands to be read twice: The first time for the suspense; the second for the subtleties you missed initially.â âThe New York Times Book Review
Everyone loves the Graces. Fenrin, Thalia, and Summer Grace are attractive, rich, and glamorous, and theyâve cast a spell over their high schoolâand their entire town. Theyâre also rumored to have powerful connections all over the world. If youâre not in love with one of them, you want to be one of them. This is especially true for River, the new girl at school.
Riverâs different from the rest of the horde that both revere and fear the Grace family. Sheâs dark, aloof, and just maybe . . . magical. And she wants to be a Grace more than anything. But what the Graces donât know is that Riverâs presence in their town is no accident. The first rule of witchcraft is that if you want something bad enough, you can get it . . . no matter who has to pay.
âA teenage girl becomes obsessed with a family of reputed witches . . . vivid . . . powerful.â âKirkus Reviews (starred review)
âEve conjures up an intriguing vision of small-town mystique, with the Grace family depicted as unknowable and otherworldlyâthe mystery of whether magic is at play hangs over much of the storyâand self-involved, obsessive Riverâs less-than-trustworthy narration adds to the air of uncertainty.â âPublishers Weekly
