Book Description

BOOK ONE INSIGHT SERIES (Version 5/5/13)

Willow Haywood has always been trapped between the worlds of the Light and the Dark. Her waking hours are plagued by her ability to feel the emotions of those around her. No matter how inward she draws, she cannot shut out the feelings of others. Sometimes she will see images - echoes of other people and places - that she can enter to influence the emotions of people she has never met.

By night, Willow experiences her only escape from this terrible insight - entering into the world of dreams. Most of these dreams are shared in blissful silence with a stunning blue-eyed boy. But every new moon she lives through something much darker: a horrific nightmare shared by another mysterious boy who is always shrouded by shadows.

One night, this shadowy figure invades her dreams outside of his appointed time. In this new nightmare, Willow is marked; a mark which follows her into the waking world and sets her on a momentous path through light and darkness, through fragmented myth and half-truths, through past lives and disturbing family secrets, all in the face of the ever-dominant Zodiac. What she finds will endanger the lives of those closest to her and will force her to make a decision that will change her world forever.

4.0 out of 5 stars A superb young adult fantasy tale... August 18, 2010
Format:Kindle Edition
Insight by Jamie Magee was an interesting read. The creative fantasy tale focuses on power, family, true love and extreme trust. The journey begins with Willow, a teenage girl, suffering from nightmares who learns the truth about who she truly is. As long as she can remember she has suffered from dreams where she is frightened awake never clearly seeing the person's face that terrorizes her. However, she does hold onto the image of a very handsome man that appears in her dreams as well.

After one of her agonizing nightmares, Willow's parents inform her of her true existence and the mystical powers that lie within. It is then that she realizes that she is more than a teenage girl and her dreams,too, may also be real. What I like the most about the story is the depths that the characters go to find, love and protect each other. Once they meet, I envy the peace that overcomes them. The love they share with their families and soulmates is the very foundation of their existence.

After being informed of her abilities, Willow also finds that she has a soul mate who has searched a life time to find her. Before they can truly be together their love is interrupted by a sinister force similar to the visions in her nightmares. It is then that Willow, who has found peace, must fight the force to reclaim the love she has just found.

I highly recommend this fantasy book to young adults. It is a book that holds your interests from the first page to the last. The journey and triumphs that ensue are a tribute to the author's superb storytelling ability as each character, scene and battle comes to life. I only give the book four stars due to the editorial issues I found along the way. The story comes through vividly despite the errors but there are enough to make them noticeable and sometimes distracting.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unique plot but weak characters June 20, 2011
Format:Paperback
Willow has always been able to sense people's emotions. She also sees images of people who are in distress, and helps them get past the emotion they are currently feeling. She also dreams every night: sometimes they are nightmares about a dark boy, and sometimes they are pure love filled fantasies with her soul mate. After she is marked on the wrist during a nightmare her family reveals a huge secret to her. Now she must master her powers in order to save everyone she holds dear.

While the idea of the story is unique, I had a hard time connecting. The fact that her family secret was kept from her for 18 years, I didn't believe it would be possible. The secret is too far out there.

Willow's responses to everything left me unconvinced. I have a hard time believing she would not resist and question all the revelations more. She seemed to only require a few minutes before accepting and moving on. This may make sense near the end of the story when surprises are expected, but the first few times? It doesn't seem likely.

One thing that really stuck out to me was how clean the romance portion is. There is some kissing, but there doesn't seem to be any alluding to or mention of sex. Not even when the couple lives together. This is especially surprising since a large portion of the story relates to love, romance and relationships. This is definitely a romance story most people will feel comfortable letting younger teens read.

Overall, I found this to be a unique storyline, but it was lacking in realism within the characters. As a fantasy story, I expected some situations to require suspension of belief, but the characters still need to feel real, with believable responses and emotions.

More About the Author

The fun non boring Bio :)
I'm an obsessive daydreamer. Lover of loud alternative music. Addicted to Red Bull. I love to laugh until it hurts. Fall is my favorite season. Black is my favorite 'shade.' Strong believer in the saying: there is a reason for everything, therefore I search for 'marked moments' every moment of everyday...and I find them. Life is beautiful!



Boring one....
Jamie Magee has always believed that each of us have a defining gift that sets us apart from the rest of the world, she has always envied those who have known from their first breath what their gift was. Not knowing hers, she began a career in the fast paced world of business. Raising a young family, and competing to rise higher in that field would drive some to the point of insanity, but she always found a moment of escape in a passing daydream. Her imagination would take her to places she'd never been, introduce her to people she's never known. Insight, her debuting novel, is a result of that powerful imagination. Today, she is grateful that not knowing what defined her, led her on a path of discovery that would always be a part of her.
