My review of Shifted Obsessions, by C.E. Black
I went into this book with high expectations, and as usual, they were exceeded. The level of skill in which Black uses to execute her work, is highly commendable. The book was intriguing and complex; several sub-plots that coincided with the main story, adding layers to an already riveting tale. The characters were fascinating, yet familiar. As a reader, you become invested in these characters, and find yourself anticipating what will happen to them next, while feeling like you are in the book with them while it happens. Your emotions mingle with the ones bleeding off the pages of this story, and you don’t just read the words – you feel them. Detailed description allows you to clearly visualize the scenes as they unfold. The story grabs you from the first page, and stays with you long after the last one is turned.
