GIFTEDBy: Marilyn Kaye
The Story:
Thirteen year old Queen-of-mean Amanda Beeson, wakes up one morning in the wrong body. She's become lonely, unfashionable Tracey Devon - one of Amanda's targets for bullying. Amanda discovers that Tracey, ignored at home and at school, has the ability to turn invisible. Amanda sets out to rescue her one-time victim from obscurity - as well as rescuing herself from Tracey's life!
My Thoughts:
Wow! I've been on a (very long) break! But if anybody misses me (at all?) then I'm back! Okay, the first book that I wanted to review is this Gifted series. The first of what might be at least a 12 part series (I hoped), I thoroughly enjoy reading the book. It's not as complex and as daring as one might hoped for a supernatural based story (even the plot is somewhat tamed, about a small kidnapping) but for some reason I'm still glued on reading it until the very last page. It's a good introduction to the world of the 'gifted' and focuses on several characters instead of one (and I assure you that it's not confusing at all). So kudos to the author for bringing a truly 'light reading' to us.
