I post reviews of my books here now and then, sometimes in hopes that one will interest you and you will read it. Today I’m quoting a couple of new reader reviews to share the joy of having readers that really get it.

Now for a couple of reviews by readers from Amazon for Finding Magic
A magical, supernatural world, skillfully delivered!, January 27, 2012
I love most supernatural reads, and FINDING MAGIC hit all the right notes! Rhamey created a believable, creative supernatural world and a thrilling plot, grounded in both technical details about all things biological, and characters drawn with emotional accuracy. The chapters moved between first person and third person narration which allowed the reader to dive into the inner world of Annie, one of the main characters, and also step back and see the bigger picture. This dance between the two narration styles was artfully executed. Most importantly, though, I cared about Annie, Gabe, and Mike, was drawn into their world, and wanted to know what happened next. A great read I would highly recommend. Enjoy!
Excellent Read, January 26, 2012
This alternately charming and thrilling book was just what I like a novel to be: an absorbing refuge from daily life and good food for thought. Rhamey has created a truly magical world and, once again, challenges our perceptions of the world around us, asking what it means to live responsibly and compassionately in our society without compromising our values. An exciting read with a fresh perspective. Highly recommended.
I’ll make Mondays “Review Day,” though if there are a lot I’ll post them on Tuesdays as well.
