Fans of young love and adventure will hurry to the end of each chapter, in anticipation of what will happen next. Unfolding at an easy pace, this tale is magical and spellbinding. Nolan is one to watch!"~ RT Book Reviews, 4 ½ Stars Top Pick"Conjure is a sweet, adventure-packed romp for young teen readers...Lea Nolan carries it off with aplomb. Her characters are engaging and as realistic as one ever gets in a non-angsty book about teens. Emma is spunky; her tenacity in learning magic and dealing with the various forces conspiring to keep her from saving her twin is admirable and believable. Her crush on Cooper Beaumont is sweet, funny, and engaging. There are pirates, lost treasure, curses, and ancient curses, chases, narrow escapes, and secret letters galore."~ New York Journal of Books"This is an unexpected read: exciting, dangerous, adventurous - everything we want from a good book. Yet Nolan puts that creative twist on all the elements, making Conjure something special. Conjure is recommended, 4 out of 5 stars."~ Teen Librarian's Toolbox
