Lists with This Book. Mar 01, Susan Anderson rated it it was amazing. This is NOT you mother's boy-meets-girl book. Is it literary horror? The book is all of these, a spellbinding psychedelic trip, a shimmering novella with a shattering voice. It deals with love and hate between two not so normal shape-shifters. It's about running from and running toward at the same time. It's about bliss Hold it.

It's about bliss and the dark night of the soul. It's about all that is in us.

But it is Bevie's story. In a record store clerk meets Ray, the man of her dreams on a train. She takes him home. It made fireworks go off behind my eyes. I wanted to hear it in my bones, truth or lie, souls met or falling away. She, the shape-shifting Bevie, experiences obsessive bliss, and through her story so exquisitely told, so do we.

Along the way she meets various shaman-like figures. Shurlock John is one of my favorites "A coyote ain't a dog, wont never be a dog What happens to Ray? You'll have to read the book and I highly recommend that you do. A word of caution: But it is a book to be savored. Mar 23, Leonard White rated it liked it. You could color me surprised and I was happy to agree.

To sum it up in a short and sweet way, not bad. The story has an interesting magical system and good plot. I would say three out of five stars. The story revolves around Beverly and covers a decent span of her life. We start out by meeting Bevie in a subway car when she discovers her powers.

As she and her counterpart move through the story time is handled by hopping from one instance to another of Bevie trying to find her place in the world while avoiding her buddy. The magic system is based on a lock and key structure. Each person is tied to another. Only when the two are together will their magic be activated.

Once activated, the person will continue to be able to use it but at a very limited capability.

When the people are together, then their power will be exponentially increased. The plot is solid. The magic system is intriguing and I think there is possibility for more stories in the same mythos that they have created. This is very well done. Now, for a few characters this would make sense. Special situations exist and is the world builders right.

I can see where it might have all been tied to one character, but this still jumped out at me enough to break a part of the story. Finally, I think there needs to be more time spent in developing a relationship with the main character. This story is about Beverly. I should therefore care about her and I never did. She ended up being a vehicle for the story instead of the driver. It might have been an attempt to show how she was trying to find herself but I never got a clear image of who she was. That said, the authors have some great characters, my favorite was actually one of the bit characters.

A Native American shaman who was hardly a character at all. Yet, when I think of this story, he is the image I have clearly in mind. Beverly needs more time to be herself in this. So, while I felt there were a few glitches I did enjoy the read. Danika Potts and Oliver Campbell told a pretty good story and I will be looking to see if they continue writing together.

This was a really, really different story. It did take me a bit to get into it as I found it to be quirky, almost Quentin Tarentino quirky. I had even wondered why I was having such different reactions to other reviewers. Once I was able to get into it though, the story took off. I am happy that I gave it the time it needed. Aug 11, Paige D'winter rated it it was amazing Shelves: Really enjoyed this book! I've only ever seen the idea of paired gifts once before and I adore the idea. I wish this book had been longer. I loved it so much that now I'm greedy!

I long for sequels, prequels, graphic novels, even a TV show! Jan 04, Beverly rated it did not like it Shelves: This started out with some potential. A young woman, Beverly, meets a man on the train who is her "soul mate" so to speak. Between them, their powers join up and they can do almost anything. But Beverly doesn't like the feeling or the responsibility and heads out to hide herself in a different identity. It works for awhile but then she must try again and again and again.

When she finally gets to the point where she can no longer prevent this man from stalking her, the book suddenly dissolves int This started out with some potential. When she finally gets to the point where she can no longer prevent this man from stalking her, the book suddenly dissolves into a bloody, free for all.

It was just too violent and unnecessary--as was the horrible language used in the last chapter of the book.
