Intangible By J. Meyer
A novel of twins, a brother and a sister with special gifts. One a healer. The other a Seer… sounds enticing right?! Well that’s at least what I had thought before reading it. However a slow start and confusion in characters dampened my spirits. I wasn’t sure what to expect but a mix of vampires and elves wasn’t really it.
In the beginning ot almost seemed underdeveloped and I wanted to put it in the kids section of the library in my head rather than the young adult. Now hold up before you just sign this book off of your to read list... As I got further in the book it seemed to suddenly flow better and the characters were a bit more believable.
Having Lilith the Queen of the Damned suddenly made sense to have her take part in it.I felt the book had switched gears and was finally on track with the vision. There were still bits and pieces that didn’t add up with the characters or the storyline but i ended up wanting to know what was going to happen next. yes of couuurse… after I’ve said I wanted to stay away from all these multiple book series it does have a sequel haha
I would like to read it just to see what happens with the twins and their gifted entourage. ;)
I will say in a manner of hesitance it is kiss approved...I only hope book two is a bit more put together when I end up reading it.

A Sneak Peek? Or A Steal?!?!?! Intuition by J Meyers
-A bonus Intangible short story.
It wasn't anything that captivated my full attention from the get go but as it got close to the end it was a mystery I wanted to know how it'd be solved. So last night I bought the actual book, Intangible, so we will see exactly how this all goes!!!!

A Seer? Or A Fake!?!?!?! Glimpse by Stacey Wallace Benefiel
How can this book go from middle school mentality to I wrap my arms around someone and arch my back for my first kiss?! PFFFFFT YEAH RIGHT! Sorry but you can't go form nothing-innocence to I'm going to wrap my fingers in his hair and kiss him hard on the mouth.... *roll my eyes* I think for most of us out there our first kiss was beautiful in the sense we were naiive and nervous and scared of what to/not do. "Oh Good GRIEF"
It's sad that this book is so juvenilely written... I had some hopes... and there are so many tidbits that have a lot of potential... ideas that could really make something for themselves. Instead I feel like I'm in an episode of Full House (which I do love however... I feel) that tries to meet The Butterfly Effect..... Needless to say it doesn't mesh well.
The characters are highly undeveloped and as soon as you think you may be connecting with one of them they lose their humanity and feel so far from real it's difficult to read on. They aren't even slightly relatable as a whole to oneself, their emotions are rushed and fabricated.
You don't mix religion and the supernatural... at least in the way they did... as a writer if you choose to break the rules of society/the world you must manipulate situations, characters, plot, emotions so carefully... it's an art... you must make me feel it.... make it believable....
It was as if the author was in such a hurry puzzle pieces were shoved where they really didn't belong.
I wish it would've been more, I really do... but sad enough to say I won't be approving this book or looking onto its counterparts to see what happens.
