I just love the mind-boggling quality it gives. I wasn't a super fan of this one but it did have good entertainment quality. I was hoping it had more of a psychological side but it was more about the romance which I guess I didn't expect. Although I did think the romance was good they had awesome chemistry, though the 12 year old thing did bother me a bit. It was also neat how it went from contemporary to.. well not! The sci-fi aspect was really intriguing. Also I really want to try her Pledge series I heard it was really good!

And it made you cry?!?! That makes me even more intrigued! Love your review, and I'm definitely going to look out for this book once it comes out :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02288722022982656753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2329593457481155810.post-78879158012597045052014-04-27T19:04:28.654-04:002014-04-27T19:04:28.654-04:00Your enthusiasm for this makes me want to check it...Your enthusiasm for this makes me want to check it out now! I did have second thoughts about it recently, but you've made me curious again. :) I'm glad the romance worked for you. And I also love it when authors blend different types of stories/genres into one book and manage to pull it off.

I was a bit worried about it being too alieny, I'm not a fan of aliens, but it doesn't really sound like it is at all.

I couldn't stand The Body Finder, but I still want to read this book. And then you mention the contemporary feel; I tend to be a hit or miss for those kinds of books even though they have the paranormal part. But listening to you describe the book, I think I need to read it. I will be picking this up one day. Lovely review!<br /><br />Thanks for visiting my <a href="http://www.manda-rae-reads.com/2014/04/manda-raes-haul_26.html" rel="nofollow">haul</a>.manda-raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02887281075180313018noreply@blogger.com
