Eliza's Shadow by Catherine Scharf
3.0

This book is about a girl named Eliza who discovers she is a witch when a new boy, Ren, comes to her school. You follow her on her journey of learning her powers and dealing with normal life.
I enjoyed this book. The beginning was very good and really drew me in. I like Eliza's character a lot, and she has decent development throughout the story. Her romance with Ren is cute, if a bit confusing at times.
The plot was okay. It seemed a little jumbled in parts with transitions, and the pacing wasn't consistent. I liked the overall idea of it though.
Overall, I would give it a 3.5 for a strong effort and good leading character. If you like witches and modern spins with them, I would recommend this to you.
