Third eye, purple light meditation, Hindu philosophical references mixed in with angles, archangels, ‘powerful vibrations,’ chakras… On and on and ON. A confused and disjointed “five minute” path to…. what? (Not sleep!)

Loved this book for its way of putting ostensibly difficult, send and divisive issues into clear perspective with humor and grace. I read it while the news cycle was covering and totally obsessed with our racial ‘differences’ (NABJ interview and follow-up), for which it was a welcome breath of fresh air. Alex writes just as she presents herself on TV. That is to say, smart, focused and with a beautiful smile.

Need a whole lot of suspension of disbelief.

Way too many plot twists that were unrealistic. Lots of creative work requires suspension of disbelief, but with this novel, many ‘scenes’ and activities were so off that they kept breaking the fictional spell, so to speak, prompting eye rolls, or even a need for a reading break. This is the opposite of a page turner. At about half way through I had to consider putting it down. Probably should have, but it was my only option on a long car ride and I stuck with it to the ‘end.’ (If we could call it that.). I’ve liked other novels by this author and I tend to like the lead actress, but the format and totally unrealistic storyline made this one very difficult to enjoy.

I was raised to be open minded and accepting of others as an Episcopalian. We saw the lessons of the Bible more as guidance and (l) could never quite get a grip on the concept or practices ‘Fundamentalism.’ This really helped me to understand it as a cult concept… a culture with underlying principles that are to be followed without reason or questioning. One can without a hint of hypocrisy fly in a jet plane or talk on a cellphone yet not believe in science!

I couldn’t stop listening. This should be required reading in all high schools, colleges and universities. One can only hope copies will be sent to and read by the sitting trump sycophants in our government.

Plot holes, completely unrealistic events, and an unsatisfying ending that left several important loose ends. (Was actually a little bothered and even ticked off.)

Not for anyone living or who has lived within the sphere of influence of a narcissist.

As the plot unfolded l became increasingly irritated by the lack of obvious questions that were somehow never asked or even entertained. Near the end, little disconnected hints were dropped for expediency in quickly‘wrapping up an otherwise scattered plot. However anyone who has lived through a childhood with a narcissistic parent would know how unrealistic the storyline is. Narcissists are always larger than life, well known to and often feared by all in their sphere. Apparently not in this world.

This is a story with few twists or turns. When the writing gets tough (or the plot FINALLY begins to thicken a bit)… just bump another main character. It’s OK, we can always bring in a completely unknown ‘someone’ at the end to ‘author-splain’ a secret plot that had few plot clues or even mild foreshadowing… other than it always appeared that the good guys would certainly win. Ugh.

As a child of the 50s and 60s this richly imagined story brought back many memories. I had a strong minded, widowed mom who in hindsight was well ahead of her time in thought and spirit. When I really enjoy a book I read it twice and this was good to the last page both times!
