Jean is a klutzy Iowa girl sent to live with her aunt, uncle, and cousins in Manhattan. Why? A boy who refuses to end their relationship. Unfortunately for him, Jean supposedly cast a spell on him to fall in love with her... but is she really a witch? Her cousin, Tory, seems to think so. But Tory wants to be the magical one in the family, and becomes obsessed with ruining Jean's life.
Although I'm a little tired of teenage magic, I still enjoyed this book. BUT... Jean was so naive it was annoying. Time and again, she would get sucked into Tory's lies, and seemed incapable of defending herself or even arguing logically. Ugh. But, I still have no self-esteem as an adult, so I guess it's realistic to have someone behave like a doormat. Maybe she was too much like me, and I'm angry with myself for still being so insecure (how psychological). **** 4 Silly Stars
