I might never have found this book if not for my friend, who convinced me to read it.

While the writing style is fairly light and straightforward, I loved the story. Sabine lives with her grandmother, both of them gifted with unusual psychic powers. Sabine is still learning to control and use her abilities, with the help of her sometimes snide spirit companion Opal. But with her gift kept a secret, she manages to live a fairly normal high school life.

But then something happens. Sabine begins to be tormented with visions of a girl with a dragonfly tattoo...a girl who is in mortal danger. And Sabine has to find her and warn her, before it's too late.

With the help of her grandmother's handyman Dominic, a blunt young guy with a mysterious skill of his own, Sabine begins to realize that she is coming into her full powers...and she's going to need them.

As with many books, the characters make this novel, but the plotline is still suspenseful. And the other books introduce plenty more problems to be solved. ( )

This book actually took me a few days to read. It was interesting but there were times where I was like ok can we please get to the more interesting parts? Unfortunately those didn't come until the last quarter of the book, but that last quarter made me want to continue on with the series. So here's hoping the next book keeps going the way the last quarter of this book did then I'd really enjoy this series.

2.5 stars This Kindle freebie was an interesting story but predictable and rushed at times. The teenage high school drama was a bit too much for me. I can see the author has talent and I hope she continues in her craft. ( )

I have had this book forever on my Kindle and finally decided to give it a read. I believe there are six book in this series right now. This was a very quick read and was okay. The dialogue throughout is a bit stiff and awkward and the story is predictable.

The main character, Sabine, can see glimpses of the future and occasionally see ghosts. She is starting over at a new high school pretending to be a "normal" girl after some events at her old high school caused her to leave. When Sabine sees a vision of a bloody dragonfly and then she meets a girl with a dragonfly tattoo she is worried that she won’t be able to keep her Seer gift secret for long.

This is one of those books where the main character sees a vision and spends a lot of time trying to figure out the vision and then stop those events from happening. It reminded me a bit of Laurie Faria Stolarz’s Blue is for Nightmares series; except this book was less scary and more awkwardly written.

The dialogue is a bit stiff and awkward throughout and the story is very predictable. It's mostly a lot of high school drama and mystery. I never related to any of the characters that well and don't plan on reading future books in this series. The story does wrap up pretty well though, so that was nice.

Overall this was an okay book. I enjoyed the idea of a character who can see glimpses of the future, but it is definitely not all that creative. The dialogue is a bit awkward throughout and I had trouble engaging with the characters. I also found the mystery to be very predictable. I would recommend Laurie Faria Stolarz’s Blue is for Nightmares series if you are interested in reading about a YA seer who solves creepy mysteries. If you are looking for another series kind of like Blue is for Nightmares, this one is okay if not as well written. I don’t plan on reading any more books in this series. ( )

This is an excellent book about a young girl with powers she was ashamed she possessed. She had to leave her mother's house and go live with her Grandmother who shared her gift. You follow the girl through the ups and downs of her dealing with her psychic abilities. Easy reading. ( )
