{my thoughts} - This book I have to admit is a different take on reincarnation in a sense. It is a really nice read. It is all based on Sheri/ Jean coming to realize who she really is along with Peter/ Lenny. They discover that they have a purpose and they push forward to succeed in all that they can given what they have been handed.

{reason for reading} - I read these books because a friend had recommended them based on the fact that I had enjoyed the {thirst series} and I was not disappointed. I found a love for {christopher pike’s} writing style.

Real weird book. Basically a giant reminder and reference to the first book. I’m assuming it was written for no other purpose than to set up the plot for the final book of the trilogy.

What....the fuck...did I just read....

Muse Troll - I think that's all I need to say. Why on Earth the author thought putting that awful fevered-dream of a short story in this book was a good idea is beyond me...

Uh, don't read this, that's my recommendation.

I want to first off say I did enjoy the book, it was interesting and different. But I liked the first book a lot more. The premise was neat, and going back and forth with Jean Rodriguez and the rishi was neat. But I still preferred just the whole shari point of view in the first book and finding out who killed her. The first book is a supernatural murder Mystery and the second is more of a spiritual book in an edgy supernatural sense. I'm not sure if that made sense but that's the best way to describe it. It was still a fun read, and I'm curious what the third book is all about now.
