Short
Summary of the book:
What would you do if you found yourself the
victim of bullies at school? How would you then respond if you found a handsome
stranger in your safe spot? Sage finds exactly that prior to being shot. When
she wakes up she finds herself in a parallel world and much stronger than
before. This is where the adventure start and the once shy girl becomes a hero
of sorts.
What
I liked about the book:
I loved the way Sage overcame the trauma of
being bullied. From a shy girl, she turns into a confident young woman.
What
I didn’t like about the book:
There
wasn’t anything I did not like about the book.
My
favourite bits in the book:
Where Sage gets the better of the bullies
without turning into a bully herself and without being nasty.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
The
book in its entirety was good.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
I’m not aware of any further books in this
series although room was left open for this.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
It reminded me of another book I had read
about parallel worlds, the title and author escape me at the moment, however,
in this book Sage turns into a hero and the other book I read had a different
lookout.

bears the emotional and physical brunt of all their jokes and teasing, and
things only get worse in junior high. Luckily, she does make one friend,

more intelligent than they had been. In return, they must keep their knowledge

she has received strength and support she could never have imagined. With the
help of Lacean technology, will she be able to stand up to her enemies? Or
maybe Sage will learn shes been powerful all along-powerful and worthy of love.
