You want to know whether Clare is going to pick her ex-boyfriend Justin or good looking newcomer Gabriel, and you want to see Tiffany Desposito meet her social downfall.Īll in all, a thoroughly enjoyable, light read for fans of paranormal romance and murder mysteries.įor a slightly more weighty, but incredibly enjoyable mystery series, try Shelter by Harlan Coben. As I said, there's enough else going on outside of the murder-mystery that things never feel awkwardly padded out or make the pace drag. Though there was nothing that really surprised me, and a few very predictable plot turns, Harrington gets you invested enough in the characters to not really care too much. The family drama is good as well, with Clare's brother Perry not left entirely unscathed by his experiences in the previous book. The plot and characters are nothing particularly stand out or special, but they are engaging, and most of all: fun.Ĭlare's dramas are a nice balance between the murder-mystery side of things and some regular high-school drama, with queen bee cheerleader types, social outcasts and hot boys adding another layer of things for Clare to navigate. This was a great bit of easy reading - the sort of book you can demolish in a couple of hours.
But with everyone keeping secrets, will Clare solve the murder before someone else gets hurt? With help from Gabriel Toscano - son of the new Detective, and total hottie - Clare has to do what she can.
And to make matters worse, a girl in town has gone missing.Įven when Clare's mother tries to forbid her from investigating, Clare feels the need to help find the girl. Mostly it's annoying, but harmless - popular girls wanting her to use her unique gift for show and entertainment - but someone is sending her increasingly creepy messages, and Clare keeps getting the feeling she's being followed.Ĭlare can see the history of objects - sense the emotions and actions of the person who handled them last, but on her secret admirer's offerings she's coming up blank.
Though it's nothing particularly exceptional it's a fast, fun read that will appeal to fans of the genre.Īfter solving a murder over the summer, Clarity 'Clare' Fern finds herself the centre of attention at school. Summary: Perception continues in much the same vein as Clarity with engaging characters, romance and fast-paced plot.
