Description In Favor Of Books Spellbound (Spellbound #1)
What's a girl to do when meeting The One means she's cursed to die a horrible death?Life hasn't been easy on sixteen-year-old Emma Connor, so a new start in New York may be just the change she needs. But the posh Upper East Side prep school she has to attend? Not so much. Friendly faces are few and far between, except for one that she's irresistibly drawn to— Brendan Salinger, the guy with the rock-star good looks and the richest kid in school, who might just be her very own white knight.
But even when Brendan inexplicably turns cold, Emma can't stop staring. Ever since she laid eyes on him, strange things have been happening. Streetlamps go out wherever she walks, and Emma's been having the oddest dreams: visions of herself in past lives— visions that warn her to stay away from Brendan. Or else.

This book felt like a mash up of every well-worn YA trope. I'm so tired of these love stories where the characters' love is trueeternalalways because...it just is. (view spoiler)[Pulling the reincarnation card (hide spoiler)] does not mean you don't have to develop realistic relationships.First I was drowning in instalove, only to be suffocated by major wish-fulfillment about a third of the way through.

This is a paranormal romance book that touches on the subject of teen love and witchcraft. A young girl meets the love of her life and they seem to be soul-mates, but there's a horrible curse attached to their story. Emma and Brendan must fight to stay alive and stay together or their love story will continue to end generation after generation.Emma and Brendan are soul-mates and are hopelessly in love with
The beginning of this book is pretty good. There's a little bit of set up that explains Emma's nervousness over attending an exclusive school in a new city, plus some funny one-liners that make her seem pretty likable. But on page 15, Emma meets Brendan and everything goes downhill from there, because her whole life, including the scant paranormal aspects of this book, then revolves around getting him. Here is a sketch of the story, with some spoilers.Here's what we know about the main
Well!!!! This book was great ❤. Emma and Brendon were definitely Spellbound and it was a super cute love story with a Medieval twist to it. Emma comes from a very sad and dark past and moves to her Great Aunt Christine's in downtown New York. Where she goes to Vince Academy with her 14 year old cousin Ashley. There's your school normal and psychotic drama with who's this and who's that. And then she meets Angelique and helps her adapt at this posh school. Angelique is also very spunky and funny
Well, to begin with something I have to say that I liked the book. It gave me a couple of hours of light reading and disconnection of the world. That's worth something... like three stars...Now, let's analyze it (or try to, better said). I don't know what else to say about the plot that is not yet said. In short, it's predictable and full of clichés. And not really Paranormal Romance clichés, because besides the starcrossed lovers story and the "random discovery" in the middle of the book (aka
How, oh how did this get published? Actually, I know how its called the Twilight effect. Look, there are bad books exploding off YA bookshelves everywhere. Ordinary Mary Sues with speshul powers, gay best friends, bitchy popular girls and jerky jock guys, sadly that all aint nothing new. (Oh god, and there go my vocabulary skills) But we can thank Twilight for the popularity of insta-love novels. Forget books with heartbreakingly real romances or painful crushes or clumsy attempts to find the
I don't know that I'll ever actually read this because honestly, the description doesn't appeal to me.The cover, however, does, so I had to mark it.#Immasucka
