Book Review: The Power of Three by Teri Polen

The Teller family believe their financial fortunes are finally changing for the better when they inherit a large centuries old property, which has been the home to generations of Tellers before them. However, with the house comes a vengeful spirit who has vowed to destroy the entire Teller line. Brothers Beck, Gid and Lex soon learn that they are the only ones who can put an end to the curse and save their family from following the same fate as their ancestors before them.
As the paranormal activity ramps up and becomes increasingly threatening, the brothers begin to uncover the mystery that will be the key to saving them.

I thoroughly enjoyed this gripping and page turning young adult novel. It immediately reminded me of everything I loved from the genre growing up and once I started reading it, I found it impossible to put down.

The Teller family’s bond was powerful, and it was clear how much their loved each other, but there was enough sparring and quips between the siblings to craft believable relationships. The origin of the curse was well developed and incorporated plenty of supernatural lore as well as a few new twists.

Each family member had their own unique strengths that contributed to the battle against Cora. There was plenty of well-crafted action scenes balanced with time taken to build on existing relationships and create new ones.

Lovers of the paranormal and young adult genres will enjoy The Power of Three as much as I did!
