    I wonder who is asking for help to find the locket.

    I have been noticing this one around...what an eye-catching cover, and now...the blurb makes me very curious. Thanks for sharing.

    Here's mine: “AFTER BIRTH”

      So far, it's heavy on the YA and romance, lighter on the science fiction and mystery, but I like it.

      Pretty well so far, though I wish it were heavier on the mystery and science.

    I really enjoyed the characters and dimensions in this book. I had a feeling how it would end but how we got there was a little different. I thought I had guessed a few things and then there would be a small twist to the story,
