Not my cup of tea, thank you very much. I read to page 94, then gave it up. First, there's a bit too much romance for this big he-man reader :). When our heroine finds herself sitting on the lap of the newly-met sensitive hunk... well, I didn't get a thrill.

The other problem is the overly horror-book-style treatment of the otherworldly elements. A seance with the appearance of a sinister but amorphous dark force of enormous power was the last straw. I like ghosts and can tolerate lots of paranormal stuff, but this is over the top for me. I almost quit when the evil black force took possession of the heroine's young son, but I kept plugging away it until the seance scene, when it just became too much.

On the other hand, you may love this stuff. Just not me. I discussed it with my wife, and she said to go ahead and list the book rather than saving it for her to try.
