I was intrigued by the premise, but I felt like I had to push through a lot of stuff. When it ended, it felt like the 'why' was never explained, a few random additions were made but never elaborated on, and there was no real resolution, the story just sort of dropped off and stopped.

It's not it's fault I didn't love it. It's more YA than I prefer and more conflict than I prefer. Not as witchy as I like and too much time with the girls apart. But definitely all about the power of girls friendships, imperfect parents.
