Spectral is one of the better witch stories I have read this year. It's a fresh take on the genre. Jewel has moved constantly her entire life. She thinks it is because her dad witnessed a crime. But she soon find out that she is different and they have been moving because of her. There are a few twists in this one as Jewel tries to navigate just who to trust. I liked Jewel's character. She definitely becomes a stronger person in the end. There is a sweet romance in this one and thankfully, there was really no dreaded YA love triangle that causes teen angst. Thank you for that Ms. Duffy! I think YA readers will find this book very entertaining. I hope she revisits Jewel again in a future book. I would love to see how she handles the power she has been given as the Spectral.
