What a kind of story of Life, I pity her with the kind of family she find herself being a caretaker at a young age and then allowing a common heartbreak affect her instead to move on with her life and forget everything that have ever come between them

Many things seem to go wrong In Piper's life but all of a sudden a streak of hope of possessing a supernatural ability manifests. I'm curious to find out the cause of Piper's sudden change. Thank you for this wonderful review!

To me, the sound of a teenage girl suddenly finding she has hidden powers is a cliched premise for a fantasy novel. Also I feel that the book should come with a trigger warning for those who have a phobia of birth scenes - there is one straight off the bat as soon as you get into chapter one, which is not a nice surprise for some.

An Okayish fantasy novel, that isn't particularly well written doesn't sound like its for me, but thanks for the review.

This action/adventure story is a refreshing read in that leans more on love and personal relationships, than the violence so prominent in story telling today.

I just lost my mom to cancer and I feel like I will be able to relate with Piper. She sounds like a hero, a girl with superpowers. With her father not being supportive, I think she would be needing all the light she can get. This is a book that I must read.

Thanks for your review. Piper's power seems interesting. I wonder what Esther has to tell her.

Sounds like Piper is a great girl. I wonder what happened to her boyfriend and if it is a coincidence that he broke up with her before her birthday. Thanks for your review.
