I appreciated the well-written characters from start to finish. When I began reading Keeper it was slow to start in the pace for the plot, but after getting a few chapters into the book events started warming up and becoming suspenseful! The book had many twists and turns for the reader, some of which I did not see coming at all! I’ve been reading YA novels for many years now so to be surprised, especially by a first-time author, left me excited and anxious of what was to come next with each passing chapter.

Now it is Lainey’s job to help protect the contents of the Grimoire once again from an evil warlock who stole the Grimoire many years ago. It comes to light that she is a keeper, the only known witch to possess a power so strong she can open the Grimoire, a dangerous spell book, which was previously in the hands of her ancestors to protect. At first she denies the idea of a ghost emerging out of nowhere because she looks at problems logically, but it’s only a matter of time till she learns of past secrets of the witch and her ancestors. She wants to become a successful young woman who aces her placement tests and travel the world to discover new places - little does she know all of her dreams are going to crash down around her when she starts seeing a 200-year-old witch appear everywhere she goes. This novel starts out by introducing us to a 17-year-old named Lainey who wants to be like any other young teenager. ***This book was provided by NetGalley and St Martin's Press in exchange for my honest review***
