Indigo Instinct


(Indigo Trilogy #2)


by Jacinda Buchmann


Genres: Paranormal, Young Adult



Synopsis:




Indigo Instinct for Kindle

 

They thought they were safe.

Identical twins, Tyler and Toby, escaped the clutches of a covert government agency determined to exploit their extrasensory powers. Before they regained their freedom, they acquired proof of the agency's existence, proof that was guaranteed to secure immunity not only for themselves but for their friends as well.

They took more than they bargained for.

When the brothers learn that they have unfinished business with the agency, they find themselves reunited with Indigo Children, Liliana, Grace, Eddie, and Rebecka and once again on the run.

They must rely on their instincts.

While Grace and Eddie discover that love isn't always easy, Sarah's life is thrown into turmoil, and her guilty conscience leads to fear and distrust of her own heart.

Intuition doesn't lie.

There are new players in the game and it isn't easy to know who to trust.

Sometimes the right path isn't always the easiest.

Is there a way to give the agency what they want and still retain their freedom? Find out in Indigo Instinct, Book Two of The Indigo Trilogy.

MY REVIEW</h1

Hello everyone!!
This day I have them the second installment of a series that I personally really like because of the nature taking its plot twists, Indigo Instinct.

Funny, Indigo children -adults, fantasy, romance, the mystery and adventures is back with science fiction.

In this second installment we return with all our favorite characters from the first book, gradually regaining the end and developing this new story calmly and naturally as you progress but gained momentum and if we come to a radical change within it.

Picking up where a group of indigo children and adults that are saved from being in the ranks of an agency that wishes to an end, now they all think they are safe but that could take an unexpected turn. And in each take a role, and the addition of new characters that will add more excitement.

I think the story was a natural evolution, which even I expected and I was a big surprise, took a major leap and manages to keep what I liked from the first book that freshness of a different story and a story filled with reinforced more action and sci-fi, and of course, our author did not forget this important essence in the story: love.

I loved the character development, but in some cases was expecting something different in other surprised me is flowing and uniquely designed and the way that the author has planned.

I admit, this is one of those stories that I like so simple and yet so fluid history. No need to recharge so many things and shows a taste for the author in the genre. And that you help you to feel comfortable in the story :).

The Review


BOOK 1:


Hello everyone!! When I saw the cover of this first book, I was curious to know what was hiding those hands and that clock , without doubt, the story behind this cover is very good.

It is a magical world and a well made, original story , with good characters actors , filled with many emotions and a clear and light writing.

The magic is present and will hand our protagonist Baxter , Our female protagonist, who gets her magical powers she turns sixteen eleven . Is determined and has a good grasp of sarcasm . And his way in this saga is about to begin , is a strong main character and very well run . You win from the start.

Besides the adventure behind the magic of Baxter, will be Declan and Jack. They will be willing to care for or want something more with Baxter, and time differently , and of course way into history.

I like the way that has story , is very imaginative , full of other fun moments of excitement and others with unexpected turns , that includes the end. It has a unique and distinctive style .

My Stars 4

BOOK 2:


In this second book we provide more twists and a significant change in the history of Baxter, we have more action.

Without leaving aside what had already been achieved with the first book, the author fills us with more intrigue mystery, emotion and of course the occasional funny moment with Baxter and his sarcasm.

The characters we already knew in the first book, evolucionarion gradually and significantly. And new characters take their position to go deeper into the world and fight against the enemy.

I loved the book, I definitely like it light, and keep the line work on the first book, but evolve in a meaningful way. The creation of this world and its characters is very clear and well maintained. It is a YA book you should add it to your wish list for reading.
P.S. I am waiting the 3rd book

My stars: 4

THE REVIEW



Hello everyone!
This is a small book, which is part of a series of 3 books or you can buy the whole story.It was one of the last books, which was different to what I've been reading in recent days. It was a feeling of something cool and refreshing with a very current story for teenagers and can be included adults.Janus Rose is our protagonist in this story. She is an expert when it comes to computers and as far as social networking is concerned. But when a little curiosity, a hard drive in the middle and the secrets and lives of others are affecting real life and all of it will be determined to find the culprit.

I like the book, I think it has a very good line and present ideas. The use of the social networks and apps appliances and computers literally are our calling card, our new journal and the thin door between our real lives and where we can add part of a fantasy story.

This well handled the situation at the beginning of the story I took a delve into the world of Janus but then was too easy and funny, full of intrigue and current situations, including situations typical for a teenager.

This first part is short, but eventually gives way for you to incorporate into its second installment. Recommended for an evening to rest awhile social networks.

THE REVIEW


I am very happy that I made and be part of the tour The Midnight Spell , is one of the books that undoubtedly is in my favorites for many reasons.


To start , the book was written by two authors and the sound and line of the book is like a person , but also, gives us the assurance that they are two authors , why? because each of our protagonists has some feature of both authors.


The story will have the way to what a YA could be defined, but breaks the scheme in many ways and it is nice to see the risk that the authors took, Christy and Adam are our protagonists, unique and different, and above all, great friends! Their friendship starts from children and to grow,still stands and each would support to the other, if that means breaking the rules.


  Adam is gay and Christy is a witch, are teenagers with their pros and cons of age, be different probably is not easy but they have each other, including his family, a midnight spell with good wishes from Christy to Adam, it works very well, it will change their lives, with emotions, magic crushes, risks and even new friends.


As I said above, the authors broke the schemes  we could be accustomed, the protagonists are not foresee falling in love, on the contrary, here reinforces what is a true friendship, regardless of race, gender, likes, or if have supernatural powers. One of the protagonists is gay! wao, Bravo! many authors do not take this risk of put them of protagonist and  less in a book classified as YA, we can see them in the background, supporting the protagonist, but not as a protagonist as such. Christy is not the typical perfect girl, she is natural, even his physical description is not the usual, but his attitude makes it perfect as a protagonist. The two are definitely my favorites, and even the secondary characters win your heart.


This book is a little jewel that you should not pass up, has mystery, friendship, love, fun, laughter, and how to avoid paranormal state, added with one or another scare and surprises. El work of Kody and Rhiannon is beautiful, is supernatural and is incredibly magical. I'm, one of the many people who support please write a sequel.


P. S The cover is very beautiful and as good Crazy Cat Girl, I'm a fan of Callie the Cat

Captivate Me by S.J. Pierce |Tour: Review + Giveaways|


CaptivateMeTourBanner


Captivate Me


by S.J. Pierce


Publication date: April 1st 2014
Genres: Paranormal Romance, Young Adult




Synopsis:




CaptivateMe“My mom had always told me – when you meet “the one”, you’ll know; they’ll captivate your heart the moment you lay eyes on them. I had always wondered, though, if my mom’s words of wisdom were finite – if they applied to everyone. Maybe those who had found their one great love were the lucky few, and maybe the rest of us would have to settle for less than earth-shattering.”Seventeen-year-old Kat Walsh is a Gifted – a human with paranormal abilities. With her mom a former Angel and her dad a dream prophet, it’s always been in her genetic make-up to be extraordinary. But, unfortunately for her, the world can’t handle the strange or unusual. So when she slips up and uses her powers at her high school in Ireland, the entire student body treats her like a freak – even the ones she thought were her closest friends.Broken, but hopeful for a fresh start, she allows her parents to enroll her in a boarding school buried deep within the forests of a small Colorado town. At Midland Pines, School for the Gifted, she feels as though she can finally be herself; she makes new friends and even has the attention of the most popular guy in school – Levi. Everything feels normal again… or does it?

Not long after her arrival, weird dreams of an alluring boy whom she’s never met surface during the night, and the eerie, shadowy trees encircling their school seem to call to her. As these disturbing, yet enticing developments intensify, other bizarre occurrences happen – students and staff turn up missing, and mystery visitors leave gifts while she sleeps. With all of these other things fighting for her attention, a desperate Levi has to fight even harder to keep her interest. But with the dreams of the attractive boy slowly captivating her heart, Kat has to make a choice – will she settle for ‘great’ Levi, or will she search for her elusive dream visitor, possibly stumbling across ‘amazing’?

From the author of the Alyx Rayer Chronicles, comes a refreshingly different Young Adult series with plenty of love, suspense, and a new take on the Paranormal.

Recommended for readers 16 and up due to mature content.

REVIEW



Hello! Today we have state of the Book Review Captivate Me by SJ Pierce is one YA wrapped with a combination of paranormal and romance book. It was a light stroke, and according to their gender .

Our protagonist is Kat , a teenager with natural emotions of his age, but what differentiates it from others, is that she is a human with paranormal abilities , in this case telekinesis .

Because of this, I had to change her high school in Ireland aa small Colorado town . At Midland Pines, School for the Gifted . Where you will find a more unusual or strange guys like her, but of course with different " gifts" .

Change is finding it easy, is between people like her and not have to hide your skills, have new friends and a possible suitor. But strange events threaten this stability , and to top it off the guy literally " in your dreams " walks among these changes, and not forgetting the difficult adolescence .

I liked the story , for me it was light , with good management of the genus combined with the paranormal YA . The touch of mystery surrounding situations throughout the story turned out well and when the charming romance.

Not only have Kat , as I said initially , there are more kids with special gifts that stand out in some way or another .

Since it is the first book the focus is a little more meet Kat and delve into his world , and of course while you aside other characters. I liked Anna and I believe that as the story progresses each highlight their skills more deeply .

This beautifully structured and written , is clear and easy to read, Its protagonist is gradually evolving according to their age. That was one of its strengths, each character has that teenager sound you must have if you're going to write characters that age. In this story flows nicely .

The story is designed for a series and want to see what new surprises we have the following books, with the first delivery were parts of surprises and the ending was interesting , not what I expected , but it was fine.

Fluid , interesting, with a lot of potential to get more story elements that attract much attention . A new environment and characters that grabs you .

Wn recommended to read any time of day .. For those looking for a paranormal love story .

My 4 stars

Tour Review with Giveaways of Finding What Is by Tabitha Vohn

FindingWhatIsTourBanner1


Finding What Is 


by Tabitha Vohn


Publication date: September 29th 2013
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult



Synopsis:




FWI

Willie has always lived an unconventional life. Surrounded by the sensual, ethereal images of her artist-mother, she fantasizes about the half-wolf, half-human, but all-gorgeous face that stares out at her from her mother’s wall, and drinks in her mother’s stories of past lovers and adventures. She shares her home with a man who calls himself “uncle” (who stalks her through the house, naked). Her closest friends are a band of misfits who’ve forged their own way in life-including Xavier, who has carved his name in her soul- and her heart is torn between him and a college professor, a fellow artist who wants more than a student-teacher relationship.


Willie stands on the brink of womanhood poised to follow in her mother’s footsteps, with a gleaming future as an artist looming before her, and a maturity beyond her years that has enabled her to be the protector and caretaker of others, a mender of wounds. But as a devastating illness rips her mother from her life, Willie is left bereft of a home and of a sense of self. Guided only by her instincts, Willie wanders from her Professor’s arms to the home that Xavier shares with his live-in girlfriend Nicole (who insists that they can “share”). Her path becomes a search for peace, for family, for a love that’s real, and for her place in this world.

Finding What Is chronicles the journey that we all must take-to find ourselves, to reconcile our past, and to get back to that place we once called home.

THE REVIEW



Hello!!  This day we have the review of Finding What Is by Tabitha Vohn

, is one of those books that caught my attention by its cover, it's beautiful.I wanted to find out that this girl had a light touch of paint and a direct gaze, looking for something, and that something was herself.

The story agrees very well with the cover, it's a story that I like by being a little more open. Explore finding a teenager about their place in this world, but that path is not easy. The situations that surround it are an exploration as I said, more open and different from my typical story we could find in books.

Although the book is quite long, I think it was worth taking the time to learn the story of Willie, a girl with a talent for the arts, but that life plays various cards to be cross with her and destiny .

From the beginning, the freedom of the author to take of issues on bullying, sexual harassment, love, relationships of open-minded by so to speak, self-examination and exploration of the world are something that stand out and what caught my attention immediately

Weaves the story in a delicate, detailed and deep line, which in some cases could be as real, but it is still a story, its exploration on issues the author does not hold back to the contrary, it is as if she like to highlight them and seek the balance for the reader to enjoy and learn from another perspective the growth and character of Willie.

Apart from the protagonist, we have more characters that stand for different emotional and personal conflicts that lead loading, and directly or indirectly affect the protagonist.

I liked the handling of the story of Willie between your mother and she shows us the why taste for the arts, my favorite character Xavier, the story surrounding it is something that will affect Willi but does so in this particular way to the level of Willie, which I loved.

I loved his writing is clear and direct, descriptive, and although its content can be open and clear, and may create a conflict in your feelings or your views. This could be one of its natural charms and could give much to talk about.

Recommended with tea and you favorite place to read.

THE REVIEW



Hello everyone! this book started to get my attention since I saw it in the Book Blitz last year, and when I later saw that will have a tour, I would not hesitate in give him the opportunity to read it.The story is very good, Stim is focused on what happens in one part of the life of Robert, a boy who has Asperger's Syndrome, which has decided to enter college, his life even with this syndrome has to have things and people "normal".

The route than have to spend Robert is varied to meet its target, is an exploration of finding himself and even acceptance for him, and giving life lessons in some moment.

In his tour he will not be alone, will her best friend Chloe, who have diagnosed one than another syndrome, and her roommate of both Steph, which might say that is normal. This trio will make you have a part of exploration, a fun time at times with several occurrences that will affect the lives of Robert.

Definitely my favorite was Chloe, is the most influential character in the way of Robert and makes you see that sometimes not being as he says: "normal" is good. And She have each occurrence so much fun that I lasts a good time laughing.

The book is easy to read, very funny when is necessary and very direct when dealing Asperger syndrome. In particular I had not read anything like that about these guys, maybe some books take it differently. In this case, the author handles it very well the story and makes a fine mixture, fun and even full of information.

I recommend this book too, sometimes I saw to Robert as normal as any of my friends, but some points were seen as difficult for him as for some people who will being in the way to understand it.

My favorite part of the book: Chloe, cats and your irremediable Asperger Syndrome symptom, if you want to know why you will definitely have to read the book.

You can enjoy it any free time.

My stars for this book 4.5.
