FUN story, PATHETIC ending!!! In fact, the book doesn't end. There is no closure to the story. Which is a terrible shame, because the plot is very intriguing and very well written. But having 2 characters suddenly emerge from "limbo" where they were sent, does NOT constitute that the story is done.
I GET the fact that people like cliff-hangers. And it's fine to have a cliff-hanger book, but this seriously has problems.
Her relationship between the 2 main men is not More...

So....I forced myself to continue reading after the first 3 chapters. The writing was not engaging, I felt confused half of the time and just waiting for it to get better. I liked the idea of the story and so I decided to wait it out...even after typos such as "waste" substituted for "waist", ugh. After chapter four, the writing gets better and the story actually comes to life, but I still felt like it never met its full potential. Clara, the main character, is a bit annoying

I read this book on a recomendation from a friend of mine - and was intrigued because it was an author from my local area. I was not disappointed. What a unique idea for a book! I thought it was very well written - despite the fact that I did get a little irritated with the main character's constant belittling of herself. I know why the author did it, but after a while - I wanted to shake her and go... Stop ragging on yourself, girl! But once you hit the middle of the book, she seems to sta

I received this book from a Goodreads Giveaway and I am happy to say I enjoyed it, though I wasn't so sure at first. The writing in the first few chapters is a bit uneven, with snappy dialogue and well flowing pros one sentence to... not so great the next sentence. And there were a number of annoying typos.
However, once I got past the first few chapters, the writing evened out and, with the exception of the occasional challenging sentence, the writing is fairly engaging. The plot is More...

Clara is a teen who is happy to be mediocre. Personally, I don’t know too many teens that would accept that they are nothing special in any way. That is where this book’s journey starts. It presents a concept related to the soul, but it falls short of providing enough detail to truly grasp it. I really hoped this story would sweep me away, but it didn’t meet it’s potential.

I was thinking something totally different for the story-line. Which turned out to be a good thing, it went in a different direction than I was thinking it was going to, and I had a hard time putting it down. I really liked this book, and I hope it's the first of many great novels from this author.
I'm really hoping there is going to be a sequel (or more). I'd hate to see this be the only story with these characters (as I really enjoyed them), and a lot was left unanswered.

This book has the ability to make your mind race, your heart pound, your eyes water and your heart break. Absolutely fantastic.
Cannot wait for the next instalment. Rowling, Meyer and now Grace. YA is truly alive and well.
A MUST read.

What I appreciated most about this novel was its originality. It shared some of the elements of other young adult books (teenage female lead, love triangle, war between good and evil, fantasy elements, etc.) But what stood out about it was that it didn't follow a predictable story arc. I wasn't sure how it would end, and that kept me intrigued until the last page.
I also appreciated that it delved into the religious and spiritual realm. It was a risk on the part of the author, one I be More...

I wrote it, so I'm not exactly unbiased. But I am anxious to hear what all of you think about it. So get to adding it and reading it!
