As with that duo, I feel like Eliza's relationship needs more substance. Her relationship with a certain boy may seem reminiscent of Reed & Thomas. She isn't afraid to take charge and does not let people walk over her, but she still remains likable. Narrated in the third person, Eliza Williams has what our heroine Reed Brennan of the Private series does not - a backbone. You do not have to have read the Private novels to enjoy this one (although if you do start the series, don't expect any mentions of magic until the very end of the 12th novel of the series). THOUGHTS: In this prequel to the Private series, a surprising new direction is taken: Magic. And Eliza is about to learn that some secrets are better off buried. But the more they use, the more troubling events come to pass until finally the worst possible outcome happens. Unable to resist the temptation, they create a coven and grow more attached to magic. Together, the girls discover a buried secret that leads to mysterious books about witchcraft. Theresa makes her disdain for Eliza readily known, because a Williams is always a Williams.and she does not like a Williams.
Upon arrival, Eliza quickly bonds with Catherine White and Alice Ainsworth, which also unfortunately means she has to spend time with Theresa Billings, Catherine's best friend. She craves adventure, loves to read tragic novels, and would rather die than become a demure clone of her sister. SHORT SUMMARY: In 1915, Eliza Williams is sent off to the Billings School for Girls by her mother with hopes that the school will change Eliza as it has changed May, Eliza's perfect older sister.
