Not sure I understand the distinction, but early on, in the first book, the main character has these premonitions and she is visited by a young girl spirit. It's very gothic - she's at this boarding school for young ladies in the middle of nowhere. Later on, I think about midway through, she discovers she has this ability to move between worlds, bringing along her friends, into this magical realm where all their desires become reality upon first thought. The girls become addicted, drunk on their new powers. Of course, they're playing with fire, the unfortunate consequences of which are played out by book's end.
I ended up borrowing these books from the library. In the end, I didn't need to own them. While they're interesting books, the characters aren't always sympathetic.
