Tamara Hart HeinerRezensionen

Cute

This was a cute story it was very short but it was cute. If you're looking for a funny short story and that is cute this the book for you. That is why this review is so short because there isn't really anything to say about it except for it was short and cute.

This was a great book! I really enjoyed the characters and the town... This could totally be turned into a movie! It was realistic to have baggage and work through it... sometimes we don't know why we are called to someone, but we are. I saw that in Luce and Connor!

I really enjoyed this book. I loved learning about a new Goddess. I loved the story plot. Jayne‘a character is very relatable. I’m hooked to read book 2

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review

Cassandra Jones’ creature comforts go rather awry when an accident at home lands her in hospital. She meets creatures and friends, looks forward to summer camp, hopefully not on crutches, doesn’t really appreciate her little sister, and appreciates her school friend a little too much. In short, she’s an ordinary ten-year-old with an ordinary family and friends. Young readers will easily relate to her, while parents of young readers just might want to rethink how their children see them. Failing to listen does get noticed. Mom and Dad’s disagreements are easily seen, even when they’re not heard. And wisdom may not always be appreciated, on either side of the age barrier.

Camp counselors who don’t care, friends who get jealous, sisters who are loyal, and creatures, human and otherwise, that wound unintentionally; they’re all in this short story. But readers who want to see how it all plays out will need to read more of the series. It’s a cool start to a series of ordinary extraordinary adventures for girls.

Disclosure: I got it on a deal and I offer my honest review.

CHARACTERS, PLOTTING, DEVELOPMENT:

Primarily a fantasy for teens and young adults, as a senior I found I enjoyed this clean intriguing novel. Author Tamara Hart Heiner included twists and turns in this well crafted novel. Keeping the pace steady and smooth, the readers led from one revelation to another. With revelations I did not see coming, Heiner keeps the tension and intrigue at high peak. My mouth fell open when Heiner revealed the villain's identity. What a surprise!

Furthermore, Heiner crafted well-developed characters and her skill in portraying teen years, well crafted and realistic. As well as, showing in-depth the worry and angst Jayne carries because of her talent/gift. Repressed by her talent/gift/curse, afraid to look into anyone eyes after she smells lemons, Jayne carries a terrible weight with her daily. Heiner shows Jayne, Dana, and Aaron dealing with everyday teen issues such as: girlfriends, boyfriends, school, and maturing towards adulthood. By the end of Heiner's book, will Jayne grow into a confident young woman? Will she come to terms with her talent? Can she accept her fate? Sorry, you will have to read the novel to find out.

STORY-LINE REACHING KYLEE:

Author Tamara Hart Heiner crafted a great young adult mystery romance novel in Reaching Kylee. When Pierce Hudson's mother died, his world changed forever.

Solving the mystery of Kylee's disappearance becomes an all-consuming obsession for Pierce. Will Pierce ferret out the circumstances surrounding his next door neighbors? Has Kylee run away or is she dead?

What Pierce discovers, is not what he expected. Grab a comfort seat, my young adult mystery romance novel of Reaching Kylee follows.

CHARACTERS, PLOTTING, DEVELOPMENT:

Primarily a young adult mystery novel, author Tamara Heiner included just the right amount of teenage romance. Heiner sets the hook early in her novel and holds the reader's attention until the last page. Revealing family dynamics and teenage angst, Heiner skillfully crafted her plot lines, then wove them together to form a first-rate mystery filled with intrigue and suspense.

The questions Heiner leaves unanswered are intriguing. Amazingly, Heiner leaves the reader wondering what exactly is Kylee's state of being. Leaving me waffling from ghost, dead, alive, runaway or murdered, Heiner enmeshed me in her characters and I became invested in their well-being.

Furthermore, Heiner skillfully developed her characters as they matured in the story. As a result, Pierce becomes a young man with likeable traits rather the shallow teenager portrayed in the beginning. The storyline's filled with action, suspense, and mystery as well as abuse, grief, and sadness.

Finally, in concluding my young adult mystery romance of Reaching Kylee, Heiner crafted well-developed characters and smooth steady pacing. In order to more fully appreciate and follow the story-line, the author advises reading the series in order. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

I planned on saving this for the poolside, but didn't make it that far. Let me tell you, I'll never feel the same about the smell of lemons ever again. Jayne has a gift, or is it a curse? Sometimes she will get a whiff of lemon coming off a person and if she looks into their eyes she will see their death. Because of this she avoids eye contact a lot.

Heiner does a great job creating believable characters that you grow to care about. It was easy to get lost in her world. This was a quick and riveting read. My favorite part was that I wasn't sure who the bad guy was until the end.

I'm only half way through, but I can already recommend this to anyone and everyone. Heiner writes these true events with great story telling skills. You start to get lost and then it hits you...these are real people and real events. I've already cried my way through several chapters. My heart aching for the trials and fear these women went through, but also feeling a pride for their strength as well as those who stepped up to help from the very beginning.

More to come when I finish.
