Overall I liked it, but I found it hard to like any of the characters aside from Nick. He was the only one that held my interest from beginning to end. I did manage to warm up to Diana and a few other characters, but Cassie bugged me ever since book one and continued to bug me throughout "The Captive, Part 2." She managed to redeem herself in "The Power" since she wasnt running around acting all secretive and lying to everybody anymore. I was upset over how the love story played out and the ending proved to be a little anticlimactic, but that's probably because I prefer physical action over magic, but it was still good. Even though I prefer "The Vampire Diaries" series, I think "The Secret Circle" is a good series for the YA genre.

not that great. i really didn't like the secret circle books. i thought that cassie and adam being together in the beginning would be good.but after i started to hate the idea of them.

I read this because of the TV show and it left me still with many questions. I still don't like L.J. Smith.

After a bit if disappointment of the first two parts of the story, I was quite pleased with this book. I especially loved The Power part of the story. I love the whole Nick-Cassie-Adam-Diana love fourtangle. It was really nice to read and the twists I didn't expect to see and read. Very inspirational story as well.
