The book started off right where I wanted it to, with Reed and Evie and their intense and breathtaking romance. I think I need to get my breathing under control for a minute before I begin this review. Amy lives in Michigan with her husband and two sons, but she travels often, sparking her imagination to create more worlds like the ones with hidden angels, doorways to alien landscapes, and fantastical futuristic societies and technologies. She's a graduate of Hillsdale College, which inspired the setting of her Premonition Series.

At other times, I found it completely sexist and perhaps misogynistic (a 6ft tall woman weighing 230 lbs is NOT far-fetched and does not mean she has to lumber around as if she’s a giant troll). The story was lyrical and at times I would stop to reread a sentence or passage just to take it in and think about it a moment. ![]() I will say that the writing, at times, was very beautiful. I still don’t even think I really understood the entire plot. I’m done with the book and I’m soooo tired! I was playing mental gymnastics trying to keep all the threads together and making sense. I spent much of this book pondering “What is going on?” or “Am I really dumb for not understanding what’s happening right now?” and “What is the actual point of this story?”. ![]() We earn a small commission if you purchase the book through this link. ![]() ![]() ![]() It is the dark meat-sauce that gives it its color.

He makes a valid point about the nature of habit development – everyone has different cues and cravings. ![]() I understand why Duhigg puts this blueprint at end of his book. Here, Duhigg details a 4 step process for changing any habit. Unfortunately, the best part (in my opinion) is buried in the back of the book on page 275.
