Things have not gone well for Georgia Sayers lately. When her mom died, Georgia became de facto mother to her four siblings. When her last high school burned down, a boy trapped inside was presumed murdered. In fact, the only good thing to happen to Georgia in ages is meeting a boy named Luke that she feels strangely drawn to. But Georgia will learn all these things are connected, because coincidences don't exist when witch blood runs in your veins -- a fact that Georgia herself doesn't even know -- but she will, and soon. A fast-paced dark romance in East Texas, Spelled plunges readers into a world of witchcraft and occultism, with a teenage girl struggling to control her powers before it's too late.

This young adult, paranormal novella, coming in at about 100 pages, packs in a lot of action right off the bat. Georgia Sayers is 16 years old, but has had a traumatic childhood. Now, she lives with her four siblings and step-father. Sometimes she still sees weird visions and gets weird feelings. Some people still call her mother a witch. When she feels a strong pull to a new guy at school, a whole new and dangerous world opens up to Georgia and her siblings that her mother tried to protect them from.
This was a very engaging, fast-paced and fun story. I wish it didn't end so quickly. In the very beginning we are thrown into another tragic incident at a neighboring school, the rest of the book ties together that incident, all of the characters and the tragedy in Georgia's past. Leading with this mystery left a lot to be answered in this novella. I did enjoy Georgia's character, she easily to relate to and the way she discovers her abilities comes about in a natural way. Though witchcraft is a popular genre, I felt like the story was very unique and there are many detailed accounts of spells and Wicca. There is a layering on of mystery and thrills and secrets uncovered that kept me interested. It was a little annoying that Georgia kept playing yo-yo with Luke, but that's a 16 year-old girl for you. I'll be looking forward to the next book in the Amethyst series. ( )
