The Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray

Gemma Doyle lives in India but when a tragedy happens to her family she is sent of to a boarding school in England to learn how to behave like a favorable young lady, to be suitable for marriage. She is troubled by visions of the Realms, and is followed by a strange young man. She becomes friends with three other girls at the school, who all have more or less tragic lifes. The girls finds a way to enter Realms with tragic consequenses. The only one who can set out to bring the Realms back in control of an order, is Gemma.

I read the first novel in the series, A great and terrible beauty, but I didn't feel the urge to continue with the other two. Probably these books will do better or a somewhat younger audience. But the covers are beautiful!

Read more about the trilogy and the author Libba Bray.
