A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba BrayDescription: Gemma Doyle isn't like other girls. Girls who are approved of in English society. No Gemma is different. She sees visions of the future. And they've been happening more and more frequently, since her mother's death in India. She's been sent to Spence's Acadamy for Girls. There she finds a chilly reception. But she is not alone...she is being watched by a young man in black. A man who tells her to ignore the visions.
For it is at Spence's that Gemma's power to attract the supernatural unfolds; there she becomes entangled with the schools most powerful girls, and discovers her mother's connection to a shadowy group called the Order. It's there that her destiny awaits...if only she can believe it.
Also in this series are Rebel Angels, The Sweet Far Thing
