Based on the review this is a book that I want to check out. At first, I didn't think it would be something that I would like to read. I like the supernatural aspects of the book. I also think that it was interesting to put reincarnation into the story. I definitely want to see if this book is as interesting as it seems with the heartwarming and magical story.

For me, the book moves too slow, but I will give it a chance since it has a supernatural element in it.

This book starts out great. The review makes me want to finish it even though it is for a younger audience. I think it would be great for my teenagers!

This sounds like an interesting book with a unique premise. The main character sounds complex. I like the mix of reality and supernatural. This was an interesting review

This is the first time I've reviewed a book/sample of a book, so hopefully it turns out right. I read the sample of Karina by E.B. Mann, and I was so sad when it was finish. Then I read the review by BB-something and it made me even more intrigued. I have a young teen daughter and it is fascinating to see the "typical" day of someone who is having a tough time of it. I'm going to find the book and read it completely due to the review of the book.

I found the first few pages to be quite enchanting. Your lovely review affirms it. I am further impressed by the lesson of allowing oneself to grieve a tragic event and then healing from it. Thank you for that.

Seems interesting and eventful. It's a bit different from fantasies I normally read where the character originates from the same world and time as all the magical creatures. I may decide to read it.

I am usually wary of stories that seem so kind of out there but this one sounds like it was written very well. I recently read a story about past lives that I loved, so I would be interested to give this one a chance too!

This book sounds like it has a deep and emotional story. Eventhough I don't believe in reincarnation, I think it is interesting to read about another point of view. Very good review but maybe give out a little less of the story next time (-;

Wow. I think I can see from your review that this is a good book as I was expecting the plot to be about the main character going through teenage year stuff and that, but I like the fact that the author could mix that touch of supernatural into the natural. It kind of satisfy my belief that for everything we do, there is something beyond natural concerning that thing. I should get this book and thanks for the review.

It's a very unique power that Karina has. I think we all sometimes wish to understand the root cause of an underlying problem, when someone is lying, and who is mean and shallow. Great review. Hoping to read this book quite soon.
