Duplicity (Spellbound #2)
by
Nikki Jefford (Goodreads Author)
If Graylee Perez thought sharing a body with her twin sister was bad, dealing with a duplicate of herself is two times worse. Gray the second doesn't seem to get that Lee's boyfriend, Raj, is off limits. Then there's the problem of Adrian. He expects one of the Graylees to be his.

After dying, living in her sisters body, and then taking 8 months to get used to an entirely new body, Lee Perez is finally starting to relax into her semi normal, magically filled life. That is until Gray shows up. Now Lee, Raj and their families have to figure out if living with two Graylee's is possible. Their problems continue when the whole covens' powers start to go haywire and the gang is put in hot water when it comes out that Adrian Montez may be connected to all of the trouble.

In "Entangled," high school socialite Charlene Perez was forced to share her body with the soul of her less popular, sort of hippie-ish identical twin sister, Graylee. At the end of "Entanglement," Charlene and a friend expelled her twin's soul from the body they shared--her body--then Charlene was free to head off to school in France. There, she has a ball, speaking French and smoking cigarettes, until one day, when her sister, Graylee, awakens inside Charlene's body. The difference this time i...more

The Short Version:
I love this series. It's amazing. It has the perfect blend of magic, betrayal, love, and self-discovery. The characters are realistic and well-defined, and the plot is both fast-paced and well-developed. I was still uncovering secrets at the very end, and everything unfolded in a satisfying way. This is one of those books that will be on my shelf in paperback. I liked it that much.

Where I found the first book (Entangled) in this book to be an alright story the second book is much better. We don't have all that back story and we don't have to be reminded of what happened previously, because yes we did read the first book. So yeah to the author for not reminiscing too much over the last book. This book pretty much starts off a year after the last one started, so a year has gone by since Graylee died and came back and switched bodies and all that business of book one. Book 2...more
I really enjoyed book #2 of the Spellbound series! It was another quick, fun, and light read. The premise was very interesting. We start off a few months after Entangled left off and get a brief overview of what life is like for Lee. Then, it's the one-year anniversary of her "death," suddenly there are two Graylee's.
The story progression was very intriguing. How would you react if your old "self" came back: looked like you, acted like you, had your memories, was 100% you up to a few months ago...more

This book was just as good as the first one. These books keep you on your toes. They are very unpredictable and I was confused the entire time. I wasn’t confused because of the plot, I just seriously couldn’t figure out how the author was going to do with the events that unfurled.
The book begins with Graylee Perez as Stacey. She has continued a life with Raj for almost a year. But on the anniversary of Graylee’s death, she wakes up in France. How you ask? She woke up in Charlene’s body that wen...more

When I first started Duplicity, I thought that there was no way I'd love the book as much as the first in the series, Entangled. Of course, the more I read of Duplicity, the more I started to fall for these characters all over again. Nikki Jefford knows how to keep her readers hooked until the very end and this book is no exception.
As the story begins, we're shown this new life of Graylee's. New body, no Charlene, hardly any complications as one may believe. She still has her powers, but unfort...more

Duplicity is the second book in the Spellbound Trilogy by Nikki Jefford. I had the opportunity to read and review Entangled, the first book, back in April, and I loved it. (You can read my review here.) This time around, Nikki sent me an ARC of Duplicity and even mentioned BlookGirll in the Acknowledgements section! Cue MAJOR fangirling! :-)

Really enjoyed Book 1 Entangled and the second book is really reasonably priced so just had to get it as it's such a good YA series.
It's been nearly a year since Lee first died and alot's changed, not least her body as she's now living in Stacey Morehouses body and pretending to be her. Only a small group know who she really is and that's just fine for her. She's grown, is looking forward to college and is madly in love with Raj. Life seem's perfect.

This was a great sequel to Entangled! Somehow GrayLee is in a bit of a pickle in this one and it was definitely interesting watching her try to figure it out.
Gray is very outspoken and says what's on her mind. This makes her a memorable character for me, though sometimes I find her a little TOO much and slightly annoying. However its not too bad and I really like her for the most part.

Actually a 3.5 star rating.
I wasn’t in love with this second book as much as I was with the first book. The jokes fell flat and it felt like Lee was pouting a lot of the time. It also felt like Gray was sulking. I realize they were in a tough situation but instead of taking the hard knocks they seemed to act like spoiled teenagers part of the time. Not all of the time, just part of the time.

Duplicity is an amazing addition to the Spellbound Trilogy. Nikki Jefford added lots of twists to this sstory that made me want to know what would happen next.
Graylee found a host in Stacey Morehouse's body and is now known as Lee. Little does she know that Adrian has yet to fulfill his half of bringing Gray back. Soon all hell will break loose and Lee will be meeting her double.

Duplicity was a fantastic sequel to Entangled! The characters once again were fantastic and the story continued to be fresh and original. I personally love to wear good luck charms, so I loved the magic/talisman aspect! I also loved that one of my favorite movies was mentioned and there were quite a few funny moments, especially a certain a Lady Gaga moment!

Lee is anxious as it's coming up to the anniversary of her death, she's looking forward to Valentine's Day with Raj. Little does she know that in France Charlene is really Graylee - this Graylee thinks she's just been purged from Charlene's body. As if trying to deal with that isn't bad enough for everyone, all the witches & warlock's powers are going wonky, and there's Adrian Montez - who has shown up in town again.

{my thoughts} - This book picks up where the last one lets off. It's about Greylee Perez trying to find her place in the world as Stacey Morehouse/ Charlene Perez.
I enjoyed this book because it moved the storyline forward. It helped to better understand what had all taken place in book one. It uncovers key facts that improves the story and it has it's highs and lows when it comes to romance and action scenes.

Shame on me for not getting to this book sooner. I read and was highly entertained by the first in the trilogy, Entangled, last year. Why the follow up slipped through my net, I don’t know. I woke in the middle of the night recently with back pain and knew there was no getting back to sleep, so I grabbed my Kindle and got reading. I read this in a few hours, finishing about 4am. Totally distracted me from the pain – nice one!

When Nikki sent me Duplicity I immediately loaded it onto my reader and dug into it. I read Entangled (the first book in Nikki's Spellbound series) a few months back and it was a 5 star read for me.

Entangled introduced us to a world of witches and warlocks living amongst non-magical humans. Some of these Magi were good and some...eh, not so much. Graylee was the former while her twin sister Charlene was very much the latter. Charlene basically murdered her sister while sending another girl into a coma...all for the love of a boy. Graylee's soul, thanks to some pretty dark and dangerous magic, was able to survive and found it's way into Charlene's bod...more

Duplicity was a pretty good sequel to Entangled. Duplicity was fast paced and had some great action moments. If you love stories with witches, then I definitely recommend this series. I do think I enjoyed book 1 better, but book 2 wasn't far behind :)
In this installment there are two Graylee Perez, yes you heard right, TWO. In the beginning I thought it was a bit weird, but as the book progress I could tell who was who and how they were different from one another. The story took a different twis...more
Duplicity by Nikki Jefford is the second book in the Spellbound series, the first book being Entangled which I thoroughly enjoyed and reviewed as well. The second book did not disappoint me in the slightest.
I slipped right back into the world of Graylee Perez and Raj easily. Graylee Perez is now in the body of Stacey Morehouse permanently and calls herself Lee. Something happens and Gray is in her twin sisters body again, only this time she’s a duplicate. Now they have to figure out what to do...more
What an AMAZING sequel to Entangled. Nikki Jefford weaves an amazing story. I think this story really upset me. While reading, I would make note that I was pissed off. Not at the writing or the story. It's a great story! The characters and the situations they get themselves into. Have you ever been watching a horror movie where the killer is coming after the female victim and as she's running, she keeps looking back, screaming, and trips over nothing? Yeah, that's the sort of aggravation I wa...more
I found this second installment as good as the first one, although in different ways, and due to different reasons. As is normal in second books in a series, there was no need to introduce the reader to the world and characters, so the whole story started fast. What was at stake felt more important this time, more serious, and better justified (I must admit that the reason to Gray's death in the first book was kind of... cheesy in my opinion). And there was no Charlene. I'm not fond of Charlene,...more

I was hooked the time I started reading Duplicity. It's that good.
Charlene, the annoying evil sister on the first book, Entangled, was nowhere to be seen. What a relief. *evil laugh* And Graylee became Gray. And Lee. A duplicate, yes. And who is the original?
I could definitely say that this book was as good as the first one. It doesn't lowered the standard---it even increased. And that's all I can do to not keep on saying how awesome and I...more

After a string of bad sequels, I was so happy to read Duplicity! It's so much better than the first book! Not only does it not have any of the issues that I had with Entangled, but the plot is a lot more fun and exciting. Instead of two girls sharing one body, there's one girl in two bodies! One year after her death, Graylee finds herself in her new host body, Stacey Lee Morehouse, like normal, but then she wakes up in France in her twin Charlene's body...again! The first Graylee simply goes by...more
Nikki Jefford follows up her amazing debut novel, “Entangled,” with a stunning successor, “Duplicity.”
Like a novelized reimagining of an old Doublemint commercial, “Duplicity” sees Raj offered the opportunity to double his pleasure when a pair of Twitches vies for his affection.
Each Twitch holds a legitimate claim to his heart, so few readers (least of all your average male) would fault him for straddling the fence—or the broomstick … whatever it takes—for a bit, while he assessed the charms of...more

Duplicity is a wonderful followup to the first in Nikki Jefford's Spellbound Trilogy. Nikki's writing has clearly gotten stronger and makes this an even better read than Entangled. The story line involving the two Gray's is compelling and raises all the right questions.
