Blessed

This book lived up to its genre...suspense and thriller.




This book made me feel as if I were in the twilight zone.  It starts off with several characters at different times of their lives and how by the end of the book their lives intertwine.  It was almost too overwhelming at first, because I found it hard to keep up with the characters.

This story is about humans vs meta humans.  It really reminds me of X-men.  People having supernatural powers and those that want to profit off of them or exploit them.

Catori, is a young girl when she found that she and two of her close friends, Aleah and Michael, were different.  They could do things that others could not do.  Their families raised them together and made certain that they had a relationship with God.  In seeking out more information about their children's condition, the parents found a scientist named Simon.  Simon was found too good to be true, and you know what they say about that!

The story goes on weaving in and out of several characters lives and how their lives path lead them to Catori.  The book left off as a cliff hanger, and I was still wanting more.  I am looking forward to getting and reading the next book.

****
4-Star read.

This book may be a trigger for some as it did trigger just a little for me.

Child abuse is a hard thing for me to accept and understand.  Tho, this book covered it up really well.  Meaning it drew me in not as a parent or adult harming a child for something that they did or didn't do.  ***(SPOILER) It triggered for me some because children being tested or "experimented" on all because a scientist was getting off on torture.***
