[Following is a volunteer review of "Yesterday" by Samyann.]
Everyone that Amanda loves dies. She lost her parents, her younger brother, and her fiancé. She convinced herself that she will never love again because she cannot handle losing another person. That is why, when she met Mark, she pushed him away. Well, she tried to push him away.
From the moment that Amanda and Mark met, they had a powerful and confusing feeling that they knew each other, even though they had never met before. They were so in love, that they knew their love extended across lifetimes.
Bonnie and Jack were very young when they traveled from the South to Chicago during the end of the Civil War. Along the way, they met a nice lady named Penelope. Penelope took them in and treated them as family. They grew up happily in Chicago with Penelope and her family, until the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.
Yesterday by Samyann is a romance novel that focuses on reincarnation and past lives. The novel includes two interconnected stories: the life of Bonnie, and the life of Amanda. I liked how the story took place in two different time periods. Amanda lives in present-day Chicago and Bonnie lived in post-Civil War Chicago. This was interesting because it included some Civil War history. For example, the treatment of freed slaves by white people was touched on in the book. I also learned a little bit about the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.
I give Yesterday by Samyann 4 out of 4 stars. I loved the book and there is nothing I can complain about. The author did a great job of establishing the relationship between Amanda and Mark by writing from both points of view. I liked being able to know both of their thoughts about each other. The second storyline, which was Bonnie’s life, added a neat dimension to the book that I have never experienced in other books I have read about reincarnation. Including real historical facts and places contributed to the quality of the book. Also, I did not notice any spelling errors.
I recommend Yesterday to readers over age 17 because of some explicit scenes and strong language. This is probably best suited for people who enjoy reading romance novels. This book would also be a great choice for people who are interested in reincarnation and regression therapy. Lastly, I want to point out that the reincarnation theme does not include religious ideas.
