Review
Intangible is different from what I usually read. Different
in a good way thus making it a good read. I’m a bit skeptical about this book
at first just so I’ll be honest. I never heard the book before but after
reading it I can say that I really liked it.
It was interesting to read something about twins for once.
I’ve never read about twins with psychic ability nor destined twins. I never
really thought I’d like the idea just because the last book I’ve read was about
twins involves an incestuous relationship. Sera and Luke are twins that you
won’t really think of having incestuous feeling just because they are so
different. I can’t even say they were twins at first just because they don’t
really share a trait. But then I got convinced in the end.
I was surprised with the number of POV change in this book and
the number of characters as well. I think it could have worked for me but didn’t
do much. I’ve read a book with different POVs but this one didn’t work well
enough for me to enjoy the whole scenario. It was lacking of emotion for each
character; I couldn’t connect to most of them.
With the number of things happening for each character I’m
confused with what really is going on for each character. Though their story
revolves with the Prophesied Twins, I was just not connecting with it. But then
near the ending where things got exciting I was gasping for it. Though things
were a little bit of expected already I thoroughly enjoy the book till the
ending.
Overall Intangible maybe a little bit of confusing at first
all through the middle part I was totally hooked until the ending. Though I
expected things to happen it was really pleasurable to have read this book. If
you guys want to read a Twin character with some kick-ass paranormal actions
this book is totally for you. You’ll find yourself entertained because I did!

I instantly like the story line of the twins having unique gifts. Sounds like an interesting read.
ReplyDeleteI have read a few reviews of intangible but I didn't know that it was self-published. I really respect self published authors because of ALL the work they do to finish their book.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of twins but not twins that are EXACTLY copies of each other. I want twins that are strong and independent characters. It looks like Intangible hits that part perfectly.
LOVED you review.

I love books that have different points of view - however, many authors do not have the pizzazz for it. The best I have read so far is Game of Thrones. As for the twin plot, I am glad that Meyer made them distinct. Thanks for the honest review!
ReplyDeleteI think the problem with Multi-POV books is that sometimes you don't really know what's really happening with the other characters.

I've heard great things about this one! Plus multiple POV's. But thanks for the honest review! Know what to expect now!

I like that the book is about twins but I'll be hesitant to read it because of the multiple POV, sometimes I have difficulty connecting with characters. It does sound like an interesting read so I'll add it to my TBR. :)
ReplyDeleteI have Intangible on my Kindle but I haven't had the chance to read it yet. I have heard some great things, and some just so-so things. I think it might be interesting to read about twins in a paranormal setting at least though. I don't think that I have read anything with twins yet, so at least that aspect of the book will be interesting. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteI like the storyline of the book. But I'm not a fan of those with alot of POV changes 'cause that's too confusing. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw this cover I thought it was Glimpse by Stacey Wallace Benefiel - they look so similar!
ReplyDeleteThe storyline with twins sounds really interesting, but I've read books with similar themes (twins with power and switching POV) that haven't worked out too well, but it sounds like this one may be worth a try.
