Summary:
Can The Secret Circle Survive...
Lured into the most popular in-crowd imaginable, Cassie is intoxicated by her newfound strength, a power as addictive as it is perilous.
Caught between two members' consuming desires to use the coven's mysterious force, Cassie turns to one of their boyfriends, Adam—and falls captive to her own dangerous love.
Bewitched by the promise of love through magic, Cassie captures Adam's heart and upsets the delicate balance of power, unleashing a storm of fury no one anticipates.
...Or Will The Dark Struggle Of Good, Evil, And Tormented Love Consume Them All?
Meh. Still not finding this one all that interesting. I guess I'm just not lulled by getting into the "popular" crowd.

Y'know, I don't know why the trying-to-become-popular plot is so . . . popular. I wasn't popular in highschool and had no desire to be. Most of my friends were the same.
The trying to become popular plot is about being curious about popularity. I wasn't popular, but I sure enjoyed watching the drama unfold at the 'popular' kids expense. I'm sure that is the lure to these stories. My daughter went through a phase of loving these, and within 6 months and 7 books later she got bored and turned to the rush of action adventure novels.
Yeah, I guess that stuff never appealed to me because I never really had the desire to be part of the popular crowd. They treated me like crap so why would I want to be friends with them? I certainly wouldn't want to read about striving to get up that social ladder!
