updated Jul 21, 2011 10:46pm
Description:
Do you believe in heaven or hell?
Angels or Demons; Ghosts, or even second chances at life?
Losing someone is one of the hardest things imaginable, for Jaylynn-first it was her father-and then it was him. The one that had been her first love, the one that had given her the highest hopes towards a wonderful future together, forever.
He, who had promised her he would never leave her just as her father had. Jace, the war hero. High School senior, Jaylynn doesn't know how to cope with this new loss, and when Jagger-a boy that reminds her entirely too much of Jace enters her world- trouble will brew as secrets and mysteries are unraveled.

“Grief, regret, pain, and of course anger. Another loss. And when you compare this one loss to the hundreds and maybe thousands that occur people stop thinking they matter. It does matter though. Every loss matters.”

“You’re not asleep, and you’re not dead. I’m here, and I love you. I have always loved you, and I will always love you. I was thinking of you, seeing your face in my mind, every second that I was away. When I told you that I didn’t want you, it was the very blackest kind of blasphemy.”

“I struggled to find the words to name the feelings that flooded through me, but I had no words strong enough to hold them. For a long moment, I drowned in them. When I surfaced, I was not the same man I had been. My life was an unending, unchanging midnight. It must, by necessity, always be midnight for me. So how was it possible that the sun was rising now, in the middle of my midnight?”

Natalie wrote: "I need a suggestion for a book giveaway... what do you think?"Any specific genres in mind?
Thank you so much for the invite hon, I accept. Thanks for the comment on the blog too hon. So happy you liked my review :) Talk later hon :)
Putting so much emotion and experience into one story is sometimes almost physically draining. Battling the gnawing depression that comes with delivering certain emotions into your work is difficult, and I hope for god-sakes readers feel these emotions so this battle isn't for nothing.
Does a long review, mean it is a good review?-Just because a review of praising a certain book is long does not make it a good review in my opinion.
Why?
After reading a 300 something (or whatever number) page book, do people in fact want to look at a long review in search of another book to read...
The answer is quite simple. No. (And I've asked several people)
In all honesty, when searching for a good book to read I first look at the amount of stars the book was given (overall), then skim to the reviews at the bottom if the overall star score was high.
Then I read a review that is no more than a paragraph long. (5-10 sentences)
In general only the authors of books enjoy long reviews that praise their work. Readers however do not.
Thank you for the friend request. I am very eager to get my hands on your book, it sounds so intriguing. Best wishes to you.
I write for fun. Sometimes my characters talk to me in my mind. It's great having so many imaginary friends, lol =]
