Genre: fantasy
Review: Corinne's family is keeping secrets from her, and she knows it. Ordinarily, I hate books where everyone is keeping a secret from the main character, but Isaacs writes Corinne's frustrations so believably that I was able to focus on the story, rather than on my own frustrations with the characters. Corinne doesn't just sit back and hope that all the answers will spontaneously be revealed to her. Instead, the pages practically turn themselves as she struggles to find out her family's secrets. Her perseverance pays off, and she is soon admitted into a world of time travel, shape shifting, and teleportation. For the most part, her family treats their gifts as fun and games, but of course danger lurks, and soon Corinne and her family must fight for both their past and future. This fast-paced novel will be perfect for any fan of fantasy, especially of fantasy involving a strong female protagonist.
