Favorite Scene from Entangled
The
day Graylee Perez wakes up in her twin sister Charlene’s body. Gray has
no idea she died and finds it odd when she wakes up in Charlene’s bed.
Her mom is out of town and Charlene isn’t anywhere to be found so Gray
goes to school.
Once
at McKinley High, Gray is further dismayed when she finds her locker
has been emptied. Things get really wacky when she goes to first period
and her teacher asks her what she’s doing in his class. When he calls
her Charlene she immediately corrects him. However, the information is
not well received.
Excerpt:
Louder
gasps, followed by a rush of whispers coming from all directions. It
was like being sucked into the eye of a hurricane with chatter hurled
and swirled all around her. Gray looked to Mr. Burke, imploring him with
her eyes to make this charade end.
“Enough!” he shouted and the clamor stopped. Mr. Burke looked at Gray and spoke softly. “Miss Perez, please come with me.”
Gray stuffed her things inside her pack and vacated her desk. She was more than ready to get out of that room.
She joined Mr. Burke in the hallway, where he shut the classroom door behind them. Gray could practically hear the jabber begin anew the moment the door clicked in place. Hyenas. She’d like to see how her classmates handled a day in the Twilight Zone.

- Evil Eye Amulet and Bracelet: In Duplicity, Gray wears an evil eye pendant, also known as a nazar, to protect herself from a spell that’s causing havoc over the witches and warlocks in her coven. The evil eye (a Turkish amulet) is used for both luck and protection against envy.
- Two Headed Quarter: Two Grays are better than none and two heads are better than one, especially when flipping over who gets to choose which movie to watch with a trick coin. Adrian returns in Duplicity and opens a magic shop.

Twin witches Graylee and Charlene Perez agree on one rule: No dating warlocks.
Not so easy when a certain rogue warlock is convinced he and Graylee belong together and will use anything, including magic, to try and impress Gray. When Charlene’s boyfriend dumps her, she threatens to kill either herself or the girl who stole Blake. Somehow, Gray ends up dead.
A Resurrection Spell Gone Wrong:
Two months after dying, Gray wakes up in Charlene’s body. As a witch, can anyone blame her mother for attempting to bring her daughter back to life? Only now Gray’s stuck sharing her sister’s body 50/50 in twenty-four hour shifts.
The race is on for Gray to find a way back inside her own body before Charlene purges her from existence. Raj McKenna is rumored to meddle in the black arts, not to mention he’s after Gray’s invisibility spell and worse – her heart. But Raj might be the only one powerful enough to save Gray from fading away forever.

Thanks for the guestpost, your tastes sure have changed. I still love 80s music :) I do have a twin sister, and I would hate to be her.
