First of all, I label this as adult as that's what it technically is. But this is a book that would fit into the YA genre fairly well too. The main character is an adult and she is married and has children. But when she has Glimmers and looks into the past, basically just soaks into another persons life in the past, she ends up in a teenagers head. Twice. So when she ends up there it's like the other character is narrating. The voice becomes that other character because that's who Paige has become. Man, that sounds so confusing! I promise, it's not confusing at all though! But because of this nearly the first 20% (after the initial chapter) is narrated by a teenager in West Virginia in the 80's. This is the summer she works at a resort and falls in love for the first time. We get several months of her life before Paige ends up back in her body in her time and suddenly she has mad cooking skills acquired from her time with the other girl. Then she ends up in her sisters body (a memory because it's the week before) and see's a major secret. This opens up a big plot for this portion of the book in her own time. And then there's a Glimmer where she goes into an ancestors memory and when she fell in love the first time. So it felt like three stories in one and worked brilliant!

Paige herself might be a grown woman, but there's no cursing, no sex (fades out before anything happens) and she has a young voice. I definitely think that plenty of teens would enjoy this book and there's not really any inappropriate scenes. Some have complained that it's too fluffy. I don't get it, what's wrong with fluff? Unless you're looking for something incredibly deep you should be satisfied because there are issues presented in the book. It's not complete fluff by any means. Another complaint is that it reads like a YA. Well, I love YA so I would never complain about that. But I think it's a good idea to go in knowing that it reads that way. Paige may feel young, but it felt more like young at heart, not some teenager in a 30 year old's body or anything.



I most definitely recommend this book. It's an easy read that you can fly through in no time at all. There's no long boring parts and you'll find yourself wondering how things could go for each of the characters. But don't worry, there's no cliffhanger! And this is the first of a series. The next one comes out soon!
