This book is really a breath of fresh air. Compared to a lot of YA books that all seem to be close to the same thing written these days this one has its own little twists and turns that make it different.I’d have to say at first it seemed to be going a bit slow but then it also isn’t to the boring point either. It does later pick up and get really good more towards the last 6 or  chapters but it all comes together in the end.It is really necessary you come to find is that without it you wouldn’t have a clue as to why things are the way they are which I think will make the next book in this series way more interesting.Felicity is such a confused and backwards teenager that has no social skills what so ever when she is forced to change schools. All she wants is to be left alone, a wallflower. She has no idea how to make friends and doesn’t want to. She truly believes that she was not wanted by her mother and now seems to think that her father doesn’t want her either but he was forced to take her in when her mother suddenly passes away. she’s ripped from her life, or what life she seemed to have. not one of a normal teenage girl with lots of friends but just a loaner in a private school now forced to go to public school in London.When she arrives her 1st day she is taken in by Hollie a her school guide and what will soon become a very great friendship. even though Fliss has no idea what to do with a friend. Then comes along her twin brother  Jamie who also becomes her friend. Hollie is now her BFF and Jamie becomes her protector.  Fliss finds out what true friends are and is more then happy to accept them.As for her mother she  had secrets that directly affect fliss’s life in a way she never thought possible. She receives her dairy from the police that she opens and can’t understand what it is. well it later turns out that it is a spell book. she comes to find out her mother has been hiding a very big secret from her and her father. There is only one person that can read it that she finds out but he turns out to be a very evil person.now without giving the book away I would say its a good read for YA.  its at least a 4 star read you just need to give it a chance. I found it in no way boring at all just slow at first but when it takes off it takes off in a good way and leaves you wanting  to read the next book
