5.0 out of 5 stars ORIGINAL AND DEVASTATING, October 29, 2003
By 
Rob B (Long Island NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Flying in Place (Hardcover)
Another author I never heard of (before or since), a book I never heard of, picked up off a book rack at the checkout of a local general store. Read the first 30 pages one night. Started the next night...and was up till 4AM finishing it! Absolutley could not put it down. I still tell people about it to this day, and I read it in 1992! Original, with real-life characters, it uses the "supernatural" not as it is used in ghost stories or horror, but as a backdrop that reveals the real-life events slowly unfolding, brilliantly and movingly telling of events of the past repeated in the present. Not an upbeat ending, but not downbeat, either. More about acceptance and cautious hope for the future, but laced with a touching sadness. To this day, absolutely one of the most memorable and devastating books I have ever read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The hidden secrets Of Emma's life, December 9, 1999
By 
Recently I read one of the saddest yet intriguing book with the most unpredictable endings. In the beginning I thought that it couldn't get any more boring. As I read further the plot started to unravel and as it did I automatically clinged to the book. What I like the most about the book was the way the author described the scenes, so well you can picture them in your head. The most interesting part of the book was when they compare a scripture passage to Ginny's life (the dead sister that will give revelations to Emma soon after the same thing would happen to her) and the life that Emma would have. I thought the book was unexpectedly great. It caught my attention and I know the story of Emma's live as the book wrote it would probably never escape my mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book so moving I could not put it down!, August 18, 1999
By A Customer
I was captivated by this book. Once I started reading it I could not put it down. After I read the book it stuck with me for days. This book made me cry and realize that there are children out there lost in a world of adult lust and confusion. I passed this book on and everyone that read it was touched. I cant wait unitl she comes out with something else.
